May meeting
Date: Monday, May 8th @ 7pm
Princeton Python Monthly: May 2023
Happy Cinco de Mayo! Our next meeting is this Monday!
agenda:
- As usual we will start with a beginner-friendly segment, this time focusing on pip-tools in action;
- then everyone's introductions/updates;
- a pystack demo;
- and finally Mike's links, including cool new backends for pandas and pip, and the usual mix of the latest tools, testing, and tutorials.
And as always, your questions/ideas/doings are welcome--so join us!
Ask us about what we've been doing lately:
- playing with pystack, the new debugging tool from Bloomberg, which allows you to get the call stack of a running application, even if it's not pure python!
- and trying out whisper, the speech recognition tool from openai.

But first, check out AI Study Group this Sunday! Rick says:
Many more open source AI options have rolled out. I'll be talking about HuggingGPT and StableXL. We'll take another look at picamera too.
survey:
Are folks interested in a Linux Fu series? Ordinary and very useful things like managing your PATH, and using HOME and other important environment variables.
