Need to figure out a subscription model to ensure that a non-Google browser continues to flourish. Also, K. Lars Lohn is the man. ▶ this video
Finally made an account to post in this thread. I'm rather early in my career doing mostly Ruby, Python and JavaScript things. As you might expect, I consume mainly Ruby, Python and JavaScript related talks. The first two talks that really blew my mind are: - K Lars Lohn's PyCon Keynote from 2016: ▶ this video - Jim Weirich's (RIP) "Y Not" talk from RubyConf 2012: link There are many other presenters who I have a good opinion of: - Raymond Hettinger: his presentation/teaching style is something I'd like to model my own after, also he gave the first talk on writing proper threaded/concurrent python that I was able to understand and make use of. - Brandon Rhoades: another speaker with a presentation style that I've found easy to follow, also he takes a little shot at the dd utility about 18 minutes into link ) - Sandi Metz: I started out in Python land and moved to Ruby land, where I was introduced to Sandi's talks. She doesn't talk about incredibly complex topics, but she's got insight into some really basic things that's helpful to new people who can't see the forest through the trees. - Robert Martin: I gather that his OO principles are not universally revered, but I find his talks useful. - Gary Bernhardt: his talks are interesting and entertaining in ways that most are not The list goes on, but I can't think of them all right now.
You should perhaps watch this incredible video from PyCon 2016 given by Lars Bark about music, road trips, software development, and fractals! ▶ this video
They were available as the conference was unfolding, usually no later than a couple of hours after each talk. Really awesome work by the conference organisers. I feel so lucky I was able to attend. The closing keynote had everyone very excited. It's a beautiful talk about music, programming, biking, and life: ▶ this video
First hit on Google for '"indian reservation" pycon' points to a Reddit page which points to ▶ this video , which must be it
