Have you ever thought about what is it like to be a new contributor on your project? I challenge you to transform your project from Open Source to an Open Collaboration.Speaker: Lars Holm Nielsen (CERN)

Maybe it's not Python that sucks, maybe it's my code 8m 31/3-004 - IT AmphitheatreDid you know that in Python integers from -5 to 257 are preallocated? Reusing them 1000 times, instead of allocating memory for a bigger integer, saves a whopping 1 millisecond of code's execution time! Isn't that thrilling? Well, before you get that crazy, learn some basic performance tricks that you can start using today.Speaker: Sebastian Witowski (CERN)
