Your #opensource project’s most valuable contributors might never touch code.
I’ve maintained All Contributors Bot for 2 months w/o a line of code—triaging issues, fixing CI, organizing work.
That work keeps projects alive.
What non-code contributions have you made? #science #openscience

Python: The Documentary | An origin story
This is the story of the world's most beloved programming language: Python. What began as a side project in Amsterdam during the 1990s became the software powering artificial intelligence, data science and some of the world’s biggest companies. But Python's future wasn't certain; at one point it almost disappeared. This 90-minute documentary features Guido van Rossum, Travis Oliphant, Barry Warsaw, and many more, and they tell the story of Python’s rise, its community-driven evolution, the conflicts that almost tore it apart, and the language’s impact on... well… everything.
