Thank you to Tomas Peluritis for having me on his “Uncle Data Postcast” last month! We recorded it in-person in Lithuania, the day before I gave my keynote at PyConLT in Vilnius. Here's the recording, for anyone interested:

Today the Company will depart. Bilbo gives Frodo his sword Sting and—secretly—his magnificent Dwarvish mail-coat of pure mithril. The old hobbit sings softly.

of how the world will be
when winter comes without a spring
that I shall ever see…’
