Pablo was the keynote speaker for Saturday of this conference.
His presentation was focusing on how the language itself has changed over time, so much so that the original code has all been replaced.
Yet it is still Python.
Even with Countless contributors over the years Python has changed, yet remained the same.
Different syntax, personalities and methodologies have contributed to shaping the language to what it is today and inspiring it forwards into the future.
Mia is a regular speaker at Python Conferences as well as co-organising the Prague PyCon in 2023.
Her talk was aimed at enlightening attendees by informing them of the tools they did not know they needed, the unknown unknowns.
She opened up the powerful functions and methods contained within the inbuilt library to show us what we had been missing before now.
It was quite interesting seeing the emotions flash through the audience when folks realised that there were inbuilt and easier ways to handle objects and arrays.
Everyone left the lecture hall knowing far more than they entered.
