Ice Cream Selfie @ DjangoCon US 2018

Hammond’s Gourmet Ice Cream

It was fun visiting San Diego for DjangoCon US 2018. I gave my talk Don’t Be a Robot; Build the Bot. I think it was well received ๐Ÿ˜Š

This was also a special travel trip, because, well it happens that my husband also needed to travel for work at the same time, so we don’t have anyone to look after our two kids. I ended up taking my kids with me to the conference.

Typo of the Day: Flirt Install ๐Ÿคญ

I was trying to install a library using flit.

The correct command is flit install.

Flit is a simple way to package and publish Python packages on PyPI. You can read up about it in the docs.

They also have a “Why use Flit” section.

What’s the Scoop PDX

After giving my talk, Dial M For Mentor, I was feeling quite stressed out. My friend Jeff asked if there’s anything that would make me feel better, and I said “I wanna go get ice cream”. So we went to this place that he knew about.

At that time, I didn’t consider Ice Cream Selfie to be a “thing” yet, but I think this is when it becomes a real “tradition”.
