As someone who has been part of the open souce community for a while watching @acemarke.dev demystifying the life of a maintainer of a large open source project is great. One of my favorite talks I’ve seen lately.

This past week has been incredible! I had the chance to speak at Nebraska.Code about OpenTelemetry and being a keynote speaker at one of my favorite conferences, PyOhio. It was great to connect with so many new and old friends.

@bnb.im is one of my favorite people in DevRel. You should hire them!

I've already announced that I'll be keynoting one of my favorite conferences, @pyohio.org, but I'll also be playing a special noise set at the opening reception!

PyOhio has always been a place where I felt I could be authentically me, and I'm so grateful to have communities like this in my life.
