Re: `async def` breaks encapsulation?

That wouldn't help as much as you seem to think. You still need to use 'await' whenever you call a coroutine, so switching a function between coroutine and non-coroutine would still have just as much of a ripple effect on the rest of your code. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
EuroPython 2020: Going virtual / EuroPython 2021: Dublin, Ireland
In our blog post on the COVID-19 last week, we were still hopeful that the situation would improve in time for the event in July. The last few days have shown us that we need to have a more realistic view on how things will develop in the coming months: https://blog.europython.eu/post/612393987829039104/europython-2020-and-covid-19 Right now, we are at a point in the conference organization where we have invested a lot of time into the preparation of the conference, but have not started ticket sales, entered sponsorship agreements or ordered conference and marketing material. We also had discussions with the venue and caterer on possible options to address the risk of not being able to hold the event in July due to government regulations preventing indoor gatherings. EuroPython 2021 --- In our EuroPython Society Board call last night, we discussed the situation, looked at the options and decided to take the offer of the venue to postpone the in-person conference to next year. * EuroPython 2021 will be held in Dublin, Ireland, * * from July 26 - August 1 2021 * How about a virtual EuroPython 2020 ? - Since we all love EuroPython, the community and good vibes coming from such gatherings, we are now considering turning this year’s EuroPython 2020 conference into a virtual event. For this, we’d like to gather some feedback and have created a form for you to let us know what your thoughts are on such a virtual setup: * EuroPython 2020 going virtual feedback form * https://forms.gle/dwMYXVR4RFAqvthP6 If we go for the virtual setup for EuroPython 2020, the dates will likely change a bit, so ticket sales will start a little later. For now, we will leave the EuroPython 2020 Call for Proposals (CfP) open. Please note that those talks will then have to be held from your notebook/desktop without face-to-face audience contact. On the other hand, many more people could join in, since there’s no travel involved. We will aim to make the virtual event as interactive as possible. Code name: EuroPython Winter Edition While we’re at it, we’d also like to use the form to gather some feedback on the idea to have a winter EuroPython event, one where we run a BarCamp/Sprint/Hackathon style setup in a smaller setting. Help spread the word Please help us spread this message by sharing it on your social networks as widely as possible. Thank you !

Re: Reduce waiting queue at supermarket from Corona with Python-Webapp
The web-app could be a simple as one button: If users are before supermarket and there is a long queue, they click on the web-app button and warn other users of the queue. The same principle works for anti-traffi-jam apps, with user generated content. If someone would like to work on this project, please let me know. Am Di., 17.

Re: EuroPython 2020: Going virtual / EuroPython 2021: Dublin, Ireland
Hi, I also don't usually attend conferences abroad, but I would like to participate in a virtual conference if possible. I would also suggest that a virtual conference would not require registration or paying for tickets. I hope you will find a way to get the money from sponsors or other resources and not from participants. In the past I did attend conferences abroad and it was very expensive.

Re: Reduce waiting queue at supermarket from Corona with Python-Webapp
the use case is VERY valuable. In order to increase its penetration, how about writing the app as a plug in for a more widely used one such as google maps? Am Di., 17.

Besides I think that this can be done only by Google ( see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5629779/is-it-possible-to-create-a-plugin-built-on-top-of-google-maps-for-android ) .

Announcing the 2020 John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest
Dear all, I apologize for the cross-posting. In memory of John Hunter, we are pleased to announce the John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest for 2020. This open competition aims to highlight the importance of data visualization to scientific progress and showcase the capabilities of open source software. Participants are invited to submit scientific plots to be judged by a panel. The winning entries will be announced and displayed at SciPy 2020 or announced in the John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest website and youtube channel. John Hunter’s family are graciously sponsoring cash prizes for the winners in the following amounts: - 1st prize: $1000 - 2nd prize: $750 - 3rd prize: $500 - Entries must be submitted by June 1st to the form at https://forms.gle/SrexmkDwiAmDc7ej7 - Winners will be announced at Scipy 2020 in Austin, TX or publicly on the John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest website and youtube channel - Participants do not need to attend the Scipy conference. - Entries may take the definition of “visualization” rather broadly. Entries may be, for example, a traditional printed plot, an interactive visualization for the web, a dashboard, or an animation. - Source code for the plot must be provided, in the form of Python code and/or a Jupyter notebook, along with a rendering of the plot in a widely used format. The rendering may be, for example, PDF for print, standalone HTML and Javascript for an interactive plot, or MPEG-4 for a video. If the original data can not be shared for reasons of size or licensing, "fake" data may be substituted, along with an image of the plot using real data. - Each entry must include a 300-500 word abstract describing the plot and its importance for a general scientific audience. - Entries will be judged on their clarity, innovation and aesthetics, but most importantly for their effectiveness in communicating a real-world problem. Entrants are encouraged to submit plots that were used during the course of research or work, rather than merely being hypothetical. - SciPy and the John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest organizers reserves the right to display any and all entries, whether prize-winning or not, at the conference, use in any materials or on its website, with attribution to the original author(s). - Past entries can be found at https://jhepc.github.io/ - Questions regarding the contest can be sent to jhepc.organiz...@gmail.com John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest Co-Chairs Madicken Munk Nelle Varoquaux -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
