 :\n\n***\n\n**Saying NO**\n*by Jean Lange*\n\nI LOVE to say 'yes'. But if 
 I say yes to everything\, I can't meaningfully accomplish/enjoy/participat
 e in anything\, and I've effectively said no to it all. How can I say 'no'
  so that my 'yes'es are meaningful? Knowing how to say 'no' thoughtfully\,
  clearly\, and effectively is one of the most important skills a person wh
 o wants to say 'yes' can have.\n\n**From 0 to 1: Cloud Computing Fundament
 als**\nby David Amaya\nNew to the cloud? This talks aims to demystify the 
 core concepts of the cloud. You will walk away with a knowledge of what th
 e cloud is\, what IaaS\, PaaS\, and SaaS actually mean\, and how to get st
 arted in the cloud. From 0 to 1” aims to teach technical topics to non-t
 echnical audiences.\n\n**Python Multitool**\n*by Craig Lang*\n\nThere are 
 four built-in functions and a module that makeup a "Python Multi-tool": he
 lp\, dir\, type\, id\, and inspect.\n\nWhether you are new to Python or ha
 ve years of experience\, these five tools are very helpful when learning s
 omething new in the language. Easy to use and often overlooked for use by 
 tutorials\, these are powerful allies that will be (re)introduced to you i
 n this talk.\n\n**A Brief Talk About Nothing**\n*by Teal Larson*\n\nNull\,
  0\, and an empty set walk into a bar...\nWe'll dip our toes into a SQL qu
 ery that just didn't work how a customer wanted it to\, a 60 second overvi
 ew of set theory\, and then look at some crimes against SQL to make an emp
 ty set pretend it's 0. We'll also talk about why you probably don't want t
 o do these things with SQL after all.\n\n**Practitioner Perspectives on Et
 hical Concerns**\n*by Derrick Zhen*\n\nFaced with a flood of AI-related ha
 rms\, there have been increasing calls for software practitioners to be st
 icks in the mud against ""unethical software"". But how do practitioners a
 ctually resolve ethical issues in real life? We spoke to 18 developers in 
 order to better understand how developers recognize and act on ethical iss
 ues in the workplace\; as well as what factors make these resolutions more
  or less successful.\n\n**Managing an open source project with a lot of dr
 ive-by commits**\n*by Sarah Withee*\nI'll talk about running Code Thesauru
 s\, an open source project that attracts a large number of high-value\, on
 e-time contributors and how I've managed the influx so far.\n\n**Art and T
 echnology Events in Pittsburgh**\n*by Michael N.*\n\nOverview of past even
 ts\, ideas for future events\, ideas for collaborations with other cities.
 \n\n**This Month In Nerdery and Nerd Nite Pittsburgh**\n*by Rorry Brenner*
 \n\nI'll share some things I've learned in a segment I present at Nerd Nit
 e Pittsburgh.\n\n\\-\\-\\-\n\nWould you like to sign up to be an alternate
