    @eigenform They’ve been up since Monday I think! The team are turning them around so quickly.

    RT @nickyringland: Best standalone slide of #LCA2018 goes to @hannahcancode

    #wewantpockets https://t.co/rw7BNeEtbb

    @betsybookworm I knew I should’ve blow dried my hair.

    @The_McJones @hannahcancode I was just about to say that too!

    RT @The_McJones: I can’t get a good photo of it, but pretty much everyone who shows code on a projector needs to use @hannahcancode’s styli…

    @notsolonecoder @JedWatson @hannahcancode @reactsydney I second that!

    I am at a tech conference where I’ve seen two sessions in a row with Mean Girls “fetch” references. 👏 #lca2018 @hannahcancode @jessfraz https://t.co/7Dgzz15FKw

    I loved this talk so much and immediately called friends and family back in Sydney to buy every @hellorubyworld book they could find! https://t.co/PfdtsenohE

    The #InvasionDay protest match is quite a sight! https://t.co/twupOvEVP6

    @Gaohmee I’ve always loved glassblowing too! I find that candy-making videos on YouTube scratch the same itch for me.

    This is really odd. First time I’ve seen @canva credited as a source for a “photo” in a news story! https://t.co/BbyZElVjpV @themaninblue

    The Web is dead! says @samthor. Mobile killed it! … or did it? (Loved the brief bit of 90’s Web nostalgia.) #lca2018 https://t.co/YV0wlxHY5p

    78% of time is spent in a user’s top three apps. (I’d be interested in seeing how Twenty skews those stats! 😂) @samthor #lca2018 https://t.co/IfxSShXMfv

    @ardrigh I’ve got stickers for you!! Meet up in afternoon tea by the sticker table?

    It’s not often I see a tech demo start by turning OFF WiFi! Learning a lot about Service Workers and PWA from @samthor. #lca2018 https://t.co/p3IGz3P8or

    I ate a green lamington. It was apple flavoured. It was okay. @boundvariable #lca2018 https://t.co/gLzuYi8qTj

    @kcarruthers @boundvariable I’m hoping to score a guest post on https://t.co/I9WebtqO7K.

    @ADuckIsMyFiend @betsybookworm That happened?!

    @knitterjp @boundvariable I think it had apple butter inside

    I can verify from personal experience that the @gctechspace is great! Thanks for inviting me @spidie. 😊 #lca2018 https://t.co/yw2YuQKO04

    @kcarruthers @boundvariable Best food blog in Sydney. 😂

    When @jeamland told me Tuesday he was going to do a blockchain lightning talk crossed with the Aristocrats, I didn’t believe it could be done. 😂👏 #lca2018 https://t.co/fqW11415F6

    Just learned from @hackuador that Hackyll is a thing. 😳 Interesting… #lca2018 https://t.co/FwLskWT6Z6 https://t.co/LNE9szfhy3

    @boundvariable Clearly you need to publish an official style guide.

    @boundvariable I smushed it up in the napkin!

    @boundvariable I lied. Actually I threw the napkin away, THEN remembered I needed it for the photo, so I got ANOTHER napkin to stage it, so now j feel bad for destroying the environment for a stupid joke. 😔

    RT @SuperRoach: Well done @clinton_roy on the lego set!! #lca2018 https://t.co/ymXjmrh4OH

    As a miniconf organiser – and someone who puts on conferences professionally – I can’t say enough good things about all the hard work @tchaypo and Bruce have put into #lca2018! 👏 https://t.co/RW1rJGCLzh

    RT @ArminKDev: @lindaliukas talk at #yow17 was one of the most entertaining/enjoyable talks I have ever attended.

    If you have kids who are…

    Me: Thank you so much all your help this week! I don’t deserve it.

    Him: Are you kidding? Without you I’d be living in squalor eating condensed milk straight out of the can.

    ❤️

    After a week of tech conferences, it was nice to get back to my sewing machine. Check out this beautiful Liberty from @wearethefabricstore! https://t.co/NQz9nUr4MM https://t.co/cqVX92J4T5

    HOLY CRAP @j__st and @AnnekeCaramin made an open source sewing pattern woman’s version of the Sherlock coat! “Burn the patriarchy to the ground through the power of pockets.” YASSSSSS. ❤️ https://t.co/YpykpSLirg

    @j__st @AnnekeCaramin Please please please do!

    @hackuador I played with Jekyll a few years back – just didn’t realise there was a Haskell version. Maybe something for me to try out my new skillz on. 😉

    RT @Bedeapk: Jane knows Twitter. https://t.co/AAcLXoUwd3

    This is how I chose to start the weekend. 🤘 https://t.co/9oLDc9dNa5

    More good advice for aspiring speakers! Be sure to see the summary on Medium too: https://t.co/ISYh32zx4B #sydtechleaders https://t.co/Y9pkLXbDQ6

    @sauramaia YES. I once spoke to a male dev who’d just interviewed a female candidate and was ambivalent about putting her through to the next round. “You’re on the fence? Put her through. Think about how much more she had to do just to be there.” And he did!

    On a whim, I put my hand up to give a lightning talk about my Scratch game at the Games miniconf on Monday. So fun! It’s the first 5min here: https://t.co/rQg4OltXSl Thanks @The_McJones and @Ducky_Tape for organising. 😄 #lcagm #lca2018

    Third time I’ve seen @ADuckIsMyFiend’s street name talk, and it gets better (and greener 😂) each time! #lca2018 https://t.co/X9dFs7Fd1D

    Is there a knitting BoF on today?? @FCTweedie @betsybookworm #lca2018

    @FCTweedie @betsybookworm NEVERMIND! Found it. 🙂

    GENIUS. 👏👏👏 #lca2018 https://t.co/KbJUojNijh

    Most of the questions for @ADuckIsMyFiend start with “Did you consider…” She’s handling then very well! #lca2018

    @glasnt @FCTweedie @betsybookworm https://t.co/fOakl8IVcp

    @hroethgar @sauramaia @ADuckIsMyFiend It would be interesting to see if it happens as frequently at mens’ talks…

    @calculush @betsybookworm @FCTweedie You need to watch @chixors talk on exactly that from the #artandtech miniconf on Tuesday. 😉

    @lucykbain @owensenior Yep! I wrote a post on LinkedIn last night with all the references. Should’ve given you a heads up but it was very late. 😂

    RT @TacticalGrace: If you want to get into public technical speaking, here is some fabulous advice from @web_goddess https://t.co/kuVlEjfxIp

    Oh. My. God. And I thought Twenty was a productivity killer! https://t.co/Fk81ojWsS8 https://t.co/Pn3fyptbnK

    The devops community is all about the creation of lateral relations, says @auxesis (who runs @syddevops!) #lca2018 https://t.co/7MZEfXY57e

    @hogesonline @sauramaia @ADuckIsMyFiend There’s still a day left! Morris & Sons is open until 7:30 tonight… 😉

    @chixors I only hesitated for like 5 Min. It’s alive! Please join. 😉

    “Without new members aspiring to become core developers, the development of the Open Source project will stop the day the existing core members decide to leave the project.” This goes for so many meetup and hobby groups too! (*cough* Knitting guild!) @auxesis #lca2018 https://t.co/LNT9OI1Dvc

    @betsybookworm Someday I’ll write a blog post about the dramatic time when I nearly forked the Knitters Guild of NSW to form the Society of Australian Crocheters and Knitters (tagline: “Get in the SACK!”) 😂

    Amused to discover that @chixors delivered her talk on hacking knitting machines about 100feet from The PHILTHY. 😂 #artandtech #lca2018 https://t.co/dVXPrPSABX

    “You can speak at tech conferences!” @QEDunham made a little zine about public speaking! https://t.co/fMrRMZ59Jn Nice complement to my #sydtechleaders post from last night: https://t.co/Y7GO0iK84Q #lca2018 https://t.co/sdf7m5CjAT

    As someone who helped build an Aussie catchup TV app for a big corp, I am HERE for this talk. #drmhell #flashbacks #lca2018 👏 @andybotting https://t.co/9oGVo290Le

    “Widevine – I think 7plus and 9now use that DRM…” *cut to me, lips zipped, nodding furiously* 🤐 #lca2018 https://t.co/ATgvD8l8Qd

    It is a very strange feeling watching smart people circumvent protection measures you were required to implement and do things with the content that would’ve made the overlords’ heads explode. 😂 #lca2018 https://t.co/HdnJUEFBCt

    @unixbigot I think @ADuckIsMyFiend was much the same!

    Damn. My lightning talk about attending last year’s total solar eclipse didn’t get through. You’ll just have to watch it when the @ignitesydney video finally goes up! #lca2018

    @fukawi2 I took the same photo. 😂

    Some great practical advice from @lightningdb on building your profile! #sydtechleaders https://t.co/jBHjv5ie0r

    Engineers can find building a personal brand really awkward. It’s not always about technical excellence at your job. Great disclaimer by @rosepowell. #sydtechleaders https://t.co/Ry3KV40jnG

    @boundvariable @200ok Same thing happened to Rodd. Employer got him out of it a couple times, eventually went, got dismissed after a day.

    Kinokuniya have Harry Potter trivia for grown-ups Feb 1. Teams of 5. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. WHO IS WITH ME? I will even accept Hufflepuffs. 😉 @i386

    @boundvariable I am following instructors’ advice to play games and watch Netflix. Just need to reset. It’s a LOT of material in 3 days.

    @nothergeek Thank you. ❤️

    @Mandy_Kerr I am literally going to look at this tomorrow when I get frustrated. ❤️

    @i386 YES?! We got 2 then. Who else do we know who is a giant HP nerd?!

    @i386 @sundress @ahhhninny @lucykbain That’s five!!

    @i386 @sundress @ahhhninny @lucykbain I suspect, dear Hufflepuff, that the quiz will be about the BOOKS given that it’s held in a BOOK STORE. 😜

    @i386 @sundress @ahhhninny @lucykbain Oh sure. Team name suggestions? I like “Holyhead Harpies.”

    RT @Mandy_Kerr: We’re running a @gdcfpday! Even if you think you have nothing to share come along, we’ll help you figure it out! https://t.…

    If you count me as the organiser, Art + Tech is 50:50 men/not-men. 😉 #lca2018 https://t.co/vibpZoziPc

    @goknurginer Sounds like a perfect fit for YOW! Data too. We’re looking for speakers now, incidentally… Fancy a trip back to Sydney in May? 🙂

    When doing battle with a beast like Haskell, it can’t hurt to armour up like an Amazonian. #krislearnsfp https://t.co/xZsxm2W6B2

    Day 2 starts with @dibblego congratulating those of us who survived and returned. 😂 https://t.co/tkRmqk8wrI

    @starbuxman Unfortunately it’s a one-off, since I made it myself from a pattern I hacked. 😊

    @starbuxman Fabric was from a US craft store though – Joann’s I think?

    @starbuxman If you can find the fabric, I’ll make you one. 🙂
