1. What's in your AI code? Learn why every SCA tool is wrong, and how to deal with it
Anand Sawant

With the rise in AI, there is more focus on Python dependency management and SCA scanning. Python's dependency management system makes it easy for developers to leave dependencies out of the manifest. This means that almost every SCA tool that relies on a manifest will be wrong. We show how leveraging program analysis techniques one can avoid the pitfalls of these so-called phantom dependencies.

2. must use correc snek: python for Debian and derivatives
Heather White

What's the difference between "sudo apt install python3.12" and "wget ... && ./configure && make && make test && sudo make install"?

Do I need to use a virtual environment in my docker container?

I installed python, but it didn't come with pip.

Let's take a look at python on Debian.  It runs both your OS and your web app, and it's weirder than you think.

3. BluPants: open-source educational Python bots
Marcelo Sacchetin

This talk is about an open-source educational project based on Python:  blupants.com. My goal is to present it to the audience and hopefully find more people passionate about the topic like me who would be willing to help as open-source contributors. Attendees will learn how to use the REST API to control robots and how to extend it to new platforms and robots.
