    Developer at Venmo, earlier at Reddit and HBO, Nina Zakharenko will talk about common antipatterns in python programs and show practical solutions in python to improve your code using such tools, like Decorators, Context Managers, Mixins, and Lambdas.

    paul.jpgPython on the razor's edge: PyPy project
    Alexander Koshkin, Positive Technologies, St. Petersburg

    PyPy interpreter performance is achieved through specialization, as elsewhere. Senior python developer at Positive Technologies Alexander Koshkin will tell you exactly what is meant by this and how RPython allows you to build fast interpreters of arbitrary languages.

    Elizaveta Shashkova, JetBrains, St. Petersburg

    Elizaveta Shashkova, a developer on the PyCharm IDE team at JetBrains, will tell you how the new interface for calculating frames works in Python 3.6, how it can help with creating a quick debugger, and why such a fast debugger could not be created in previous versions of Python. For those who have not yet made the final decision to migrate to Python 3.6, this report will provide some additional reasons why this is worth doing.

    paul.jpgPython of Things
    Kirill Borisov, Yandex, Moscow

    PyCon Russia Permanent Speaker Kirill Borisov will discuss in his report Python’s place in the IoT world, how to use it in communication with various pieces of iron and what it is launched for the sake of great justice.

    paul.jpgTotal performance control
    Mikhail Yumatov, TsIAN, Moscow

    paul.jpgWrite once run anywhere - how much is opium for the people?
    Igor Novikov, Scalr, Kharkov-Lviv

    Although development in Python has shifted towards the server segment, desktop applications in Python are still relevant. Moreover, with the growth of processor performance, python applications have become an opportunity to reduce the financial, human and time costs of releasing desktop versions. And the most interesting point in this is the multiplatformness of such applications. Igor Novikov will talk about multi-platform python, toolkits and the problems associated with them.

    paul.jpgMicroservices strike back!
    Oleg Churkin, Rambler & Co, Moscow

    Oleg will tell you what requirements for the development process and the project infrastructure must be met in order to try micro (services) relatively quickly, efficiently and quite painlessly. He will talk about what problems a pythonist will have to face when using microservices in production. Find out how to choose the right framework or utility library for a specific type of task. He will tell you how to ensure fault tolerance and correctly respond to errors from third-party integrations.

    paul.jpgHow to write your debugger
    Artyom Malyshev, independent developer, Nizhny Novgorod

    Probably only a very talented programmer does not need debugging tools. Changing the value of variables, looking at the progress of the program step by step, sorting it all out will be difficult without Pdb. Artyom will talk about how these tools work, what internal mechanisms of Python VM are involved and what platform limitations they suffer from.

    paul.jpg(Without) dangerous Python
    Ivan Tsyganov, Positive Technologies, St. Petersburg

Ivan will tell you what kind of TOP-10 it is and what has changed over the past 4 years since the publication of the previous version. Explains which types of vulnerabilities are in the developer’s area of ​​responsibility, and which ones they cannot directly affect. It will show how popular frameworks help to develop secure applications, and in what situations the framework can not help.

    paul.jpgGevent - to be or not to be?
    Alexander Mokrov, Positive Technologies, Nizhny Novgorod

    Positive Technologies lead programmer Alexander Mokrov will tell you what the gevent library has under the hood and what it can be useful for. He will give architectural solutions for building an asynchronous RPC based on gevent, and talk about the problems that you may encounter when using it. In conclusion, Alexander will show how the same can be implemented using standard tools of modern Python (asyncio library), and compare these approaches. Olga Sentemova (Tinkoff Bank) and Andrei Vlasovskikh (JetBrains)

    are also preparing reports , while Andrei Stepanov will conduct a workshop on “How to Write Your Text to Speech”. Full abstracts of all reports are available on the conference website .
