TOPICS FOR NEXT EVENT
Concurrency and Parallelism in Modern Python
I want to start broadly about what concurrency is, how it's implemented on the hardware level and what concurrency paradigms are available out there on various programming languages. I will then zoom into what's available in modern python. Hopefully this will give people a good understanding of the current concurrency landscape in python and how and why it came to be.
Learn moreMethod Binding in Python
In this talk, we’ll explore method binding in Python. What really happens when you put a function inside a class? At first glance, it may look like just another function, but Python transforms it into a method by automatically handling the binding between the function and the class instance.Â
We'll explore notions of self, some __methods__, and a little of what Python does under the hood.Â
