Eavesdropping at #yapcna. Others have Elixir / Erlang on the brain.
Talk to them?
Do you not understand my “Aagh! People!” thing?

“Keep asking why until you get to the root cause.” @vmbrasseur on finding out what failed instead of “who to blame” at #yapcna

“Near misses are disasters waiting to happen.” @vmbrasseur

“Undocumented assumptions are shown to be converted to facts.” @vmbrasseur on truthiness.
I’m painfully familiar with this concept.

So @vmbrasseur will be at the #yapcna job symposium to help w/resumes and job hunting. I strongly endorse her prowess in that domain.

From a conversation tangent: Amy Wibowo’s talk on Sweaters as a Service.

That’s the fifth OH of “PCU” this month for me. What the hell is going on?
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 11:07
I know what PCU is. I saw the movie - a long time ago. And heard nothing more about until now.
Memes lead such a strange existence.

Current #yapcna status: post-lunch hibernation.

Nice and early for @lestrrat’s #yapcna talk.

“I like to think I’m the benevolent dictator - not too selfish hopefully” - @lestrrat at #yapcna on conf organizing.

Shoutout to @SlackHQ by @lestrrat. Use easy, modern tools for conf communication - not IRC - despite costs. #yapcna

“What can you do? Act early and pray” @lestrrat on getting the best conf venue - particularly in Tokyo. #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 12:58
Dedicated conf network builders. Handy when 60% of attendees download latest iOS release, according to @lestrrat at #yapcna

Make it easy for non-geeks to grok your conf. Engineers are not always decision makers for sponsorship - @lestrrat on funding confs #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:02
Just. All of this. @lestrrat on making the conf appealing to sponsors and non-diehard attendees. #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:05
Sponsorship menu, not levels. They decide what resources they’re sponsoring. YAPC::Asia’s is 8 pages according to @lestrrat #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:10
YAPC::Asia is not Perl conf but tech conf biased to Perl. Hard to have good conf about 1 tech. Promote culture /community @lestrrat #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:12
Talk acceptance based on public CFP and evaluation - not close door selection, except a few invited speakers - @lestrrat #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:16
Almost every month some sort of article or podcast sponsorship for advertising conf - @lestrrat #yapcna
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 13:17
Sorry for the tweet flood but @lestrrat’s #yapcna was that awesome.

“It only took four tries. That’s one of Perl’s mottos.” @rjbs #yapcna

“Merry Christmas. New operators!” @rjbs on Perl 5.22 features #yapcna

I don’t completely understand the tag, but the logic seems sound to me.

Time to find an outlet and play with code some more.
Twitter: 2015-06-10 Wed 19:59
Currently: chilling with @iinteractive coworkers. I’m reading a Perl 6 tutorial. Looks like they’re coding for real.

Hey #yapcna. #dammitcancer update.

Thanks to a comfy chair I don’t have to worry about drinking myself under the table. I’m already there. #yapcna ish.

Neat. I got .18 on @mikegrb’s breathalyzer game.

Item 1: I never watched the show in the image and only knew about it because some kids used to talk about it.
