Yes, it's really happening

[vicki @vboykis]

Gonna start a conference called #NormIPS that’s just presentations of middlebrow ML topics. “how to structure Python packages 2022”, “how many k-folds is too many”, “how to make the browser pop-up come up when the notebook is done running”, “putting features in Postgres”, etc.

@eugeneyan @chrisalbon @normconf Nope, just Chris trolling https://t.co/UJyQZ0racl

[Chris Albon @chrisalbon]

There is a conference for exactly that. It’s called @normconf and it’s the best damn conference for engineers there is. See you all next year for NormConf 2024!

[NormConf 🚿 @normconf]

Amazing!

Normconf was amazing. It won't be happening again, but I think there are a ton of great takeaways for people planning online events. Wrote some of them up here. https://t.co/UJyQZ09yNL

Watching @blackaryz hack @streamlit internals at @normconf is sublime!

For example, he turns all st.markdown into bold text by hacking the protobuf sent from the server to the webapp

It's also how he came with his own version of Streamlit multipage 🤩 https://t.co/bNadi2liaJ

Genius concept 😍🤓 — a conference for all the tough topics in #DataScience and #ML we all struggle with but nobody talks about in public. 👉 https://t.co/bqrfcujtO0 #NormConf

My #NormConf talk covered two frameworks -- pre-mortems and tracer bullets -- which can help us to tackle unknowns and move through the ML process faster 💫

My #normconf talk is up! Watch this if you want to learn to think about machine learning systems like an engineer in 20 minutes or less.

(And a huge thank you to all of the organizers - especially @vboykis - for putting on such an amazing conference!🎉)

Big thanks to @vboykis, all organizers, speakers, and sponsors - it was fun and educational

[Carlos Alberto Haro @h1sort]

La semana pasada fue la @normconf, una conferencia para aquellos temas que importan mucho en el trabajo con datos, pero que normalmente no son de glamour.

Yo me la perdí, pero estoy haciendo catch-up y voy a ir colocando acá las platicas que me gusten.
A darle.

[vicki @vboykis]

👋🍕 @normconf main talk recordings are live here! We’ll link them on site too soon, just wanted to get these out. Enjoy!
