My PyCon go-to-talk list. Blank indicates I'm considering skipping that block for the hallway track.

April 11 -- Day 1

  • 11:30: Creating bomb-proof data importers
  • 12:10:
  • 1:40/1:55: The Birth & Death of Javascript -- Gary is a fantastic speaker.
  • 2:35:

April 12 -- Day 2

  • 12:10:

  • 2:35: Alembic + SQLAlchemy (aforementioned reasoning plus the benefit of Portlander support!)
