Open Lessons from Open Source
summary
Begins with a three‑day effort to submit a two‑character fix to pandas that gets merged, then moves into sustained work on Jupiter and the temp and B subproject using docker, organizing a Jupyter Day Chicago event, and experimenting with rxjs/redux/react; the narrative names a public humiliation at an open source summit that causes burnout, then building a startup and podcast to broadcast process and keep the lesson that many small contributions accumulate into major impact.
