I think it’s safe to say this wasn’t his last EuroPython 🐍(and I think he will also be attending @pycon-nl.bsky.social next month!)

Recap EuroPython 2025
EuroPython is a full week dedicated to all things Python. This year the conference ran from 14–20 July in historic Prague.\nMy first EuroPython This was my very first EuroPython. Right after picking up the badge, you’re welcomed by a table full of stickers to customize it — interests, working groups, and even a “first EuroPython” tag. It was fun to see such a mix of long-time regulars and newcomers like myself.\n

Final couple of hours before heading back to The Netherlands. It’s been great being in Pittsburgh! Met a lot of cool people and learned a ton of new things. My first #PyConUS has been amazing and I look forward to future editions 🐍

Good morning world! This weekend I’ve started, besides my regular gym workouts, with a calisthenics regime.

@marcolangbroek.bsky.social Hi! Any idea what could have reentered over NL at 4:44 this morning? Looked pretty cool, especially since we had clear skies. First a single big chunk, 15 seconds later something broke off and it disintegrated some 30 seconds after that

I’m happy to announce the release of the Spaceflight News API v4.18! This release adds a number of things, most notably the addition of a new “authors” field. Social links for the authors will be added in the coming weeks!
