Pykonik #65: Linux, CI, FastAPI, Django, LLMs, monitoring ML models & others

Hi Everyone!

Pykonik is a community of those using, learning or curious about Python.
This is the final meetup of the Spring 2023 season, and before we take a summer break, we're doing a new format, this time also joined with PyData

## Different date than usual: this Pykonik will be on last Wednesday of the month instead of last Thursday.

We have lots of speakers and topics, so each talk will last max 10 minutes. We want to keep it focused, fun and cover a broad range of ideas. If you want to present something about any topic (non technical is also ok), please contact us on Discord or submit it through the form since we may still have a few talk slots available!

Talks (will be updated with future submissions)

1. 🇬🇧 Linux on personal devices, where we are now - sleep_tight (10m)
2. 🇬🇧 The curious case of (not) removing files on Linux (& maybe others) - disconect3d
3. 🇬🇧 5 things I wish I knew about Gitlab CI – Sebastian Witowski (10m)
4. 🇬🇧 Few Shot Learning or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Metric Spaces - Maciej Majewski
5. 🇬🇧 Real-time Monitoring of Production ML Models with Kafka and Faust - Hubert
6. 🇬🇧 What does Starlette really do for FastAPI? - Marcelo Trylesinski
7. 🇵🇱 Walidacja i constrainty w Django - Michał Dulęba
8. 🇬🇧 A tale of a mysterious 404 - GwynbleidD
