In StackOverflow's 2022 annual survey of 16,000 developers worldwide, 10.6% of respondents reported being affected by concentration or memory challenges, such as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and 4.3% of respondents self-identified as having an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). These results indicate that on a team of 20 engineers, up to 3 people on the team may have what are called "neurodivergent" brains.
What are the symptoms of ADHD and ASD? What are the so-called neurodivergent "superpowers" you may have seen on social media? How can we create work environments that foster ease and success for neurodivergent software engineers? Join this session to find out!
North Bay Python is a boutique one-track conference, held in Petaluma, California. Our first events were held in 2017-2019 in a 100 year-old theater in the city's downtown. After a planned one-year break that's turned into almost four years, we're excited to return!
This year, we're holding our conference in July, in a barn, on a ranch overlooking the Petaluma River.
