This is basically the same workflow we've been building at https://readthedocs.org , but for open source projects. It is really an amazing workflow, and makes writing documentation as well as books a breeze. I would love to

What made you decide to get a paid plan instead of the free plan?

Sorry about that. I thought it sounded negative and didn't want to talk badly about the product. My question was basically "Are you okay with publishing content on a site that owns the content?" I imagine they are building ex

This is only talking about people who own their homes. A lot of gentrification is happening in areas where historically the residents were suppressed from owning real estate. My own knowledge is mostly around the Portland, Oregon area, but

Curious about the default response, which is that the company hires all of the people that work on the project. I'd be curious to see stats of the commits of employeers versus their time of employment. I understand that this is probabl

"since it was basically abandonware" FUD much? The project has been actively developed since public release.

I'm one of the maintainers of readthedocs and would love to integrate something like this. We have somewhat integrated support for linking to GitHub as an editor, but that is only a half-baked solution.

Groove Salad is the best music that I have found that I can work consistently to. Definitely recommend checking it out if downtempo electronic music is your preferred work music.

Sure, keep the files as plain text in the repo, I'm all for that. Just don't make it the main interface for viewing them. You are really arguing that a GitHub file browser is the best UX for viewing documentation? Sure, keep docum

The article isn't saying to write things in another language as canonical, it's just saying put the language in the URL so later you can add other languages without breaking the URL. I think that is what you are advocating in part

A good host will redirect to the proper version of the docs when presented with a root URL, but how do you link someone to a specific language, if the Accept-Language is the canonical source for this information?

Great information for how to write a press release, as well.

Have you written more at length about this? I often find it incredibly hard to convey these points, and having stories or at least anecdotes that are relatable to people is usually the best tactic.

Looks like a great bunch of talks. Thanks to everyone who helped put the schedule together. The entire staff that puts on Pycon every year is all volunteer, and generally takes quite a bit of time to get it all put together.
