I've heard good things about this conf, I think I'll apply. Might be good for other Pants content too https://sessionize.com/strange-loop-2023
a
I’ve heard incredibly good things about it; they lean FP-heavy, so if you can talk about stuff that appeals to that crowd, you’ll do well
I won’t be going because no health and safety policy
b
+1 it had a great reputation pre-pandemic. Everyone I know who has gone, or spoken, had great things to say. A pity about the lack of health and safety policy. I find that puzzling.
a
it is also definitely their last event, so if past programs look interesting, you should definitely consider going.
f
Why is it definitely their last event?
a
because the lead organiser has decided to stop running the event
and it’s his baby
f
no health and safety policy
What's the usual content of things like this?
a
Some conferences have them (the one I run has this: https://2023.northbaypython.org/code-of-conduct ).

oh cool, so I can harass people at Strange Loop with no liability or consequences 😄
I guess policies like that mean "we will take these things seriously, and they won't get swept under the rug"
a
Oh whoops, I linked the code of conduct.
They have one of those. I meant to link this: https://2023.northbaypython.org/health-and-safety-policy
