• Coverage.py
• The evolution of the Python standard library
• Python 3.10’s trace behavior

• UX of test information
• Developer gamification
• Upgrading Django with third-party packages
• Convincing people to test
• Using non-public interfaces
• Cog
• Side projects as outlets
• Rewriting my wacky personal site (this site)
• edX being acquired by 2U
• Open source from first principles
