PyLadies Tampere November Meetup with Reaktor
Join us for an evening of Python, learning, and community as we explore two practical topics with speakers from Reaktor!
How do recommendation systems know which movies you might enjoy? We’ll explore how machine learning uses people’s preferences to predict what others might like. Saku will walk us through building a simple collaborative filtering model using IMDb’s top 1,000 movies and show how to create lightweight interactive applications with Streamlit.
Tired of spending time setting up Python environments before you can start coding? Lenni will demonstrate how to simplify project setup using mise to manage development tools and uv to manage Python dependencies. From Python services to Node frontends and cloud tools, discover how to get your projects running with just two commands!
Whether you're curious about machine learning, recommendation systems, Python tooling, or practical software development, come learn something new, share ideas, and connect with the PyLadies community.
Everyone interested in Python is welcome, whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer!
