Structural Pattern Matching in Python: PEPs 634-636

Daniel Moisset is a software entrepreneur, engineer and instructor. He's been using Python since 2000, and is one of the authors of the Pattern Matching PEPs.
Abstract
The Steering Council has recently approved PEPs 634-636, which means that Python 3.10 will include a "Pattern Matching" feature similar to what's available in other languages, although with some of its own pythonic flavour. This presentation will give a quick overview of the feature and its applications, some additional insights about why it was designed the way it is, and how we can expect it to evolvein the future.

Abstract
Teams change often. People leave and people join. In addition to those changes, we tend to forget what we were thinking. That's why it's a good practice to document those thoughts, discussions and decisions into a format that doesn't lose them. In this talk I explore ways to use tools and processes you might be familiar with - version control and project management tools - to help you document the motivation, thoughts and intents behind changes when they happen. You'll get practical tips that you can take back to your work the next day. More info about the talk at https://hamatti.org/talks/contemporary-documentation/
