#PyConUS2022 @jessejiryudavis Why should async get all the love?
Advanced control flow with thread.

Asyncio is really hip. Also twisted, tornado, curio and trio. They're all super cool.
#PyConUS2022 @jessejiryudavis In all these excitements, there was a message that was lost.
All of this was already with threads.
#PyConUS2022 @jessejiryudavis
When should you use threads or asyncio?
These are two ways to do concurrency.
Neither threads nor asyncio can use multiple CPUs

Currently attending #PyConUS2022 @pyblogsal on Making Python better one error message at a time.
(Not sure i'll be able to live-tweet but will try. Pablo speaks very fast!)
#PyConUS2022 @pyblogsal Syntax errors are important. They impact developer time.

Pablo shows several examples of SyntaxErrors prior to Python 3.9 that weren't helpful. The error simply says "invalid syntax", when the real problems are things like not closing "}" or ")" Image

ABC’s of software supply chain
Artifact: ie a file on PyPi
Attestation: evidence or proof that something happened
Advisory: public disclosure, CVEs
Build: build process produces artifacts
Certificate: easier now, with LetsEncrypt
Digest: hash digest, not reversible
Ephemeral: used once and thrown away (in context of cryptographic keys and signing)
F: Fuzzing (vary inputs)
G: Google
Hardware keys: best path for 2FA
Identity: unique and verifiable
Joe Biden: Executive Order
Key: verify signature by keyholder

#PyConUS2022 @SaraIssaoun Keynote
Remember the famous of the black hole? It was a result of collaboration.
Didn't expect it to end up on front pages. Also didn't expect people to be making lots of memes of it.
#PyConUS2022 during the keynote @SaraIssaoun shows a really cool animation of the galaxy and zooming in until we see the black hole. You should watch the recording for it.
#PyConUS2022 @SaraIssaoun Keynote:
How big of the telescope do we need?
Nobody wanted to fund to the building of such large telescopes.. Image
