I was "volunteered" by a colleague to help the program committee for PyCon 2018. I rarely think of myself as qualified for this kind of thing. Yes. I have six books on Python (with a seventh on the way) but the PSF folks are brilliant and dedicated and hard-working, and …
more ...I've decided on Windows -- Please help justify my choice
After many words, the email chain I received netted out to this:
- I can't teach myself data science on my crappy old Windows machine.
- I've decided to get a new Windows machine. Here are the specs.
My response was a mixture of incredulity and bafflement.

Code Rewrites and How They Create Value -- Stop Fighting Against It
TL;DR -- To remove doubts and questions, rewrite it.
Many, many people are confronted with the request to maintain someone else's code.
Either it's open source, and you have to make formal PR's visible to the world.

#python news: 😀
@gvanrossum just pronounced that dicts are now guaranteed to retain insertion order. This is the end of a long journey.
The Business of Book Promotions
It is hard (for me) to promote my books. It seems like empty vanity. I
realize that it's not -- promotion is essential -- but it's difficult.
Packt just send a raft of detailed information for authors. Some
things they suggest I do.
- ✅Referrals. Want a "free" Python book? The "free" is …
Functional Requirements and Use Cases -- even for "simple" things
In the mailbag I found this nonsense, doomed to inevitable failure:
"As I get more serious about this data science stuff, it has become obvious that a windows machine is not the way to go. ... Q1: What other things should I think about and consider while shopping for a new …more ...

more ...CI/CD DevOps and Python
See https://www.slideshare.net/ITRevolution/does-sfo-2016-topo-pal-devops-at-capital-one for the 16 gates that separate a good idea from secure, productive use of software. While a lot of DevOps folks like the idea, when it comes to implementing it for Python apps, they get confused.
