Taking a bus downtown because that sounds better to me than the stress and cost of driving / parking for one.

Pacing myself with inside / outside time. #PNWPHP is definitely at capacity. Already gave up a seat once. Thus the outside time.

Enjoyed @joshholmes IoT overview talk at #PNWPHP. No, you’re right. Not so much PHP in that. Cross-domain talks are good.

Watching the Vim talk at #PNWPHP and vowing that from here on I’m only watching talks at ground floor of the building.

breathes heavily

I see a surprising number of flat caps.

Bumped into @kerryusry at #PNWPHP. I’ve known him intermittently about 20 years now.

Let’s see. At YAPC::NA, I played bunches with Elixir. Now I’m at PNWPHP, playing with Go. Obviously.

Focus on subcommunities cuts you off from the larger community, harmful to your health/perspective - @coderabbi at #PNWPHP

Happened twice at #PNWPHP. Had ready response second time.

“You do Perl? You’re a wizard!” “Necrohacker, but necromancer is acceptable.”

Had grand time, but depleted day’s people energy. I want to have energy for more #PNWPHP tomorrow. Must head home for happy brain.

btw I got the term from master Perl necrohacker @yenzie. Credit where credit is due.

Doing my part for @kexp because I’m very civic-minded.

That’s a strange image to have stuck in your head.

Not strange that I could find it on the internet though.

And how do students feel about the Seattle teacher strike?

Trying on swag. The large #PNWPHP shirt fits lovely. The large Mandrill shirt - no.

…

I don’t know anyone small enough to give it to.

US-CERT: “IC3 Issues Alert on IoT Devices”

Announcement is a laundry list of stuff you already knew, I’m sure.

One one hand, I regret going home from #PNWPHP early. On the other hand, that may have been the smart thing to do.
