Speaker: Lena Chervin, Technical Writer at Surify
Description: Collaborations can never be forced, but they can be cultivated. This talk explores underlying principles and practical techniques for building yummy mind-meldy collaborations in just about any context.
Whether you are pair-programming, working on a cross-functional team, or architecting a specific solution, this talk offers a roadmap for how to co-create something that is bigger than the sum of its parts.
8:25 pm: Talk: Wait... That's a Python Contribution?
Speaker: Juanita Gomez, Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science at UC, Santa Cruz | Outreach Chair for SciPy Conference | Security Track Chair for PyCon US
Description: When people think about contributing to Python, they usually think about writing code. But the Python ecosystem is built by people with all kinds of skills.
In this talk, I'll share my own unexpected journey, from studying math and making music videos, to contributing to Spyder, organizing SciPy and PyCon, and finding a home in the Scientific Python community. Along the way, I discovered that documentation, outreach, event organizing, mentoring, and community building are just as important as code.
My hope is that you'll leave inspired to find your own place in the Python ecosystem, whatever your background or interests.
