Talk 1: Go for Python programmers, or I remember when it was all Perl around here.
Speaker: Douglas McCallum
All dominant languages go into life support eventually, COBOL Pascal and Perl are three examples. Python won't be any different, watch Ruby to see what will happen. Unless you are one of the people who get out of programming as soon as they can, you will have to change languages at some point. I am not saying Go will be the next big deal, but it is worth having a look at.
Talk 2: What's the airspeed velocity of your Python code?
Speaker: Gabriele Tornetta
Is your Python code carrying coconuts a pound too heavy? Is there margin for squeezing those all-important nanoseconds out of your modules? After a brief general introduction to profiling, we shall have a look at some of the current tools and techniques for profiling Python applications.
