Last year, I had the privilege of keynoting at #DjangoConUS. The talk was focused on #education - the science and art of teaching software development well.

This week Thursday I'm running a free webinar and Q&A that explains how I apply some of what I spoke about as I design and run learning experiences.

If you are an ambitious educator, a tentative learner or merely curious, come along! All are welcome!

We're back! After a summer (and fall!) hiatus, we're wrapping up 2024 with our last episode of the year! https://djangobrew.com

Episode 4: Spoiler Alert: DjangoCon US Recap, Open Source Maintenance, and Other Spooky Stories

We talk about our summer adventures, a Squid Game inspired coffee recipe, #DjangoConUS 2024, spooky dev stories, and Adam's first impressions of Café Bustelo!

And as always, we'd appreciate 5 ️ and a review wherever you get your podcasts!

My #DjangoconUS talk from this year is now live. It's on the #Django User Model: Past, Present, Future.

I have a request for those who went to #DjangoConUS: recommend a talk from the conference to me!

There are 57 videos on the playlist and I'd like to get a curated headstart.

Thanks @thibaudcolas for such an enlightening talk on reducing the web carbon footprint!

The stakes are clearly presented, some concrete examples are explained, and keys to go further are given!

I also like the idea of making some changes at CMS level so that dependency upgrades will naturally make things better

Yay! My DjangoCon talk up.

@EvilDMP's awesome question (from 23.34) ties right into my thoughts for Django Core from last month's Stack Report.

How do we push Django forward long-term? This is the challenge we have to solve.

Hello world

Hey there! Back in September (those were simpler times), I went to DjangoCon as a keynote speaker. It was an amazing experience and I must say, I learned a lot about myself preparing for this talk.

Give it a whirl if you've sometimes struggled with impostor syndrome... or the opposite of that.

Big thanks to @foxleytalent for the incredible support and for featuring my upcoming weekend workshop in their latest blog post! I met them at #DjangoConUS, but they’re more than just long-time sponsors—they’re dedicated to the community in a hands-on, personal way.

The workshop is a weekend-long, hands-on, expert-led, small class size dive into a stack of web dev tools that are making some big waves. Learn more here: https://buff.ly/4hq7FUr

Want a funny first line of a video? Here's a PyCharm blog post, in which I smuggle a love letter to #DjangoconUS , with a short video at the very end.

On my flight back to Amsterdam after attending #DjangoconUS and #gsocsummit. First time in the United States

Most magical moment for me was seeing the clear night sky and the milky way near the Grand Canyon. I've never seen the sky without light pollution. Bless

I wanted to let @carlton, @wsvincent and @CodenameTim know that you are indirectly with me on the train to Venice, because you are keeping me company with the latest excellent episode of @djangochat

A truly enjoyable episode, which gave me a couple of ideas, which I hope I will have time to share

I obviously recommend everyone to listen it

Have a good weekend

I was hesitant about publishing this one as I'm told a lot of the same has already been discussed at #djangoconUS but given the upcomming board nominations... I decided to publish it after all

"Stability without stagnation" is an EmberJS moto. Is there any teachings to be learned from it in the Django world?
