it's saturday morning. why not submit a thing to our call for proposals? consider it a welcome distraction from literally anything else that's happening right now.

Hello! It’s Chris here, on vacation (in Australia). Someone pointed out that 2026 started some point after I departed, and that means that it’s now the same...

hello! chris is on vacation (no new website yet), but apparently time waits for no conference, and it's time for us to ask you what you want to talk about!

Do you want to speak at California's hyper-local barn-based #Python conference? Please send us your talk ideas!

bad news: For the first time in a while, you're going to have to wait a full year between #NBPy events

Good news: WE'RE COMING BACK! April 25th and 26th, 2026, at our favorite ranch just south of Petaluma. See you there!

Hi, it's Chris here again. Hope you enjoyed the event!

We've just sent out our post-conference survey. If you were at #NBPy this year, consider responding so we know what worked well and what didn't, so we can improve for next year! Check your inbox!

Another successful North Bay Python! I always leave with new ideas, technologies, approaches, and friends. I might have to propose a talk one of these years… 🤔 #nbpy

Amanda and White Coat did *AMAZING* work. I've seen White Coat's work before, and it is, bar none, the best CART service I've ever seen at a tech conference.
Captioning #nbpy in the barn! One of the most unique conferences out there. ❤️

The @pyohio.org CFP is open for the rest of today which is plenty of time for you to submit a talk idea (or 2 or 3!) I've always personally loved seeing talks that are a bit outside the "normal" for Python confs. If you have an idea, go now! PyOhio ❤️ first-time speakers!

Other types of bias seen here include hemisphere bias (like disproportionately snowy images for "January") , locality bias ("Asian" disproportionately gives East Asian), and gender bias derived from languages' default noun gendering. - @annthurium.bsky.social at #NBPy

Both Stable Diffusion and Dall-E refused to generate "sensitive" images like "a gay couple" 🙃 Firefly did a better job, though! - @annthurium.bsky.social at #nbpy
