Once ‘the world’s egg basket,’ this Gold Rush-era boomtown still delivers culinary riches | CNN Petaluma’s farm-to-table trend dates all the way back to the California Gold Rush of the mid-1800s. It’s still a culinary treasure with a historic downtown and easy access to the coast and wine country,

The front outside wall of a barn, covered in cream-coloured paint. Inside the barn, you can see a space set for a conference, with rows of chairs in the midfield and a projector screen. Two people are sitting at a desk. Hanging on the door (propped open) is a wooden North Bay Python logo.

bad news: For the first time in a while, you're going to have to wait a full year between #NBPy events

Good news: WE'RE COMING BACK! April 25th and 26th, 2026, at our favorite ranch just south of Petaluma. See you there!

Awake after the night after #NBPy 2025. It was our third year in the barn, and it's nice to finally have the venue so worked out that I could actually hang out through most of all of the talks! It's such a delight to bring together a great group of people, year after year, no less to do it with […]

Back home after @NorthBayPython and once again this little conference is a very special experience. You should absolutely make plans to attend next year, especially if you're in the Bay Area.

And there were some “awards” of various dubiousness. #NBPy #ExcavaCon

under a bright but cloudy sky, green hills in the background, sits a yellow barn, with people milling around outside. there's two open doors with the North Bay Python logo hanging from them

Spare a moment for the humble heaters at #NBPy who are literally freezing their components off to make you warm 🤣

If you saw the ‘no ads, weapons, genocides, Microsoft Teams’ slide: that was from my talk yesterday at #NBPy.

It’s more about the list I wanted to make for myself, and why I ended up doing what I do.

Working towards a degree in dangerous, forbidden knowledge that is illegal in Florida & Alabama (#GenderStudies). Working as a network engineer for a major source of internet traffic.

BLACK LIVES MATTER. The personal is political.

This talk from @joelle is the best talk on neurodivergence I've seen -- it's not going out of its way to convince, but to explain and to share experience. Seek out the video tomorrow. #NBPy
