    RT @mcflydesign: So we quietly launched #CanvaPrint down under https://t.co/3gQcJxjmSC – get 30% off with the code GANGSTAPRINT 😎


    @agiledigital @delitescere Ooh, thanks for the intro! I’m definitely hoping to get to some tech meetups in Canberra in the future. @aussielunix is down there now too!


    @i386 About time! That was a neverending holiday.


    A lot of blood, sweat, and CSS cursing went into this. Feedback welcome! https://t.co/tE2xapIDDy


    @nxdnz @vertis How did the Iron Throne turn out??!


    @mmastertheone 😱 I wonder if the prices are comparable to the official store (ie super exxy)…


    @jeffblankenburg Quite possibly! You can drop me an email at kris at https://t.co/WZkpdZdP14 if you like.

    I’m all about the future of wearable tech… but not garments that you can only wash 10 times. 😵 https://t.co/c30gRpkKqN


    @jnowland Perhaps if you consume enough Soylent, you don’t actually perspire anymore. 🤔


    Yesterday I was congratulating myself on making it through cold and flu season unscathed.

    Today – not so much. 🤒😭


    @RMcKergow Coincidentally, yes. 🙂


    @boundvariable See, if I were operating at full efficiency, I would’ve made that joke myself.

    Who’s heading to the #yownight with @sveta_isakova in Sydney tonight?


    Big crowd at CBA for #yownight with @sveta_isakova! Mike Chen kicking things off… https://t.co/25aZAAJu8w


    Since it’s from @jetbrains, you know that the tooling for @kotlin is going to be good! @sveta_isakova #yownight https://t.co/izSnDYnSir

    Coroutines! Hearing about new feature in @kotlin 1.1 to simplify asynchronous programming. (Hey, that was in my knitting talk!) 😁 #yownight https://t.co/0Mj21EnTwq


    Diving deep on coroutines and threads to provide context on why @kotlin’s async support is so great! #yownight https://t.co/CmUdJUvEI5


    “Kotlin has a suspend function, but it doesn’t SUSPEND FUN!” 😂 @sveta_isakova cracking up the crowd. #yownight https://t.co/rT69eo8RYk


    @samnewman @sveta_isakova Apparently she had that wording on a previous slide, not realising people would find it funny. 🙂


    “Can you cancel a coroutine in @kotlin? Yes, if it’s cancellable.” Pretty sure that’s a zen koan, @sveta_isakova. 🤔 #yownight


    @MichelePlayfair Oh how lovely! I missed it. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

    I am now in 15 different Slack workspaces. Somehow I still get the same amount of emails. This is not the disruptive future I expected.

    @burrsutter Haha, thanks. I suspect it’s a remnant from a lot of amateur theatricals in college and high school. 🎭


    Testing the Pomodoro code we wrote last night for my @jewelbots. So far so good! If it works, I’ll put it up on Github. 😊


    Heard through grapevine – @UberEng is coming to recruit in Sydney for roles in US. Why not set up a local office? I hate the brain drain. 😕

    Getting an overview of the evolution of Mixed Reality tech and standards from @nambor at @awe_media. #YOWConnected https://t.co/TwBBMlMsQt


    “Being too early is indistinguishable from being wrong.” @nambor’s heard that quote far too many times, and he’s sick of it. 😂 #YOWconnected https://t.co/KzmDRM7sDR


    Demo of Milgram’s Mixed Reality continuum running in the web browser. *mindblown* @nambor #YOWConnected https://t.co/qjOSfqHS6u


    “Pinkeye is probably the biggest undiscussed issue in the VR industry.” 😂 @nambor on the importance of washable headsets. #YOWconnected https://t.co/Nf7VDoSgI5


    A lot of effort is poured into head mounted displays, but you can target much larger audience with less effort using browser. #YOWConnected https://t.co/73s7Pm55DP


    My old @canva colleagues @shipra_ships and @jeamesbone talking i18n at #YOWConnected. (Using @canva to present too!) #dogfooding https://t.co/MuFzh132ZM


    Really good, practical info on i18n processes, acronyms, and tools from @shipra_ships. @canva #YOWConnected https://t.co/6s6zV5K44R


    Now digging into code. @jeamesbone on how to best use NSLocalizedString for i18n in iOS apps. @canva #YOWConnected https://t.co/RswcjCLb2T

    Products for preteen boys dominated by tech-related brands (LEGO, Nintendo, etc) but for girls there’s a big gap. #YOWConnected @SaraJChipps https://t.co/DyN60Z4B3c

    For Android, you can use Accessibility Scanner to screenshot and auto-annotate a11y issues. Neat! (Sorry, no iOS equiv yet.) #YOWconnected https://t.co/FlsHED6CrG

    @MichelePlayfair 😂 She was just starting her talk so I wanted to snap it quickly. Bad timing I guess.


    @polleyg @darren_cibis @benteese @ChaiseHock @shinebytes We will miss you!


    @polleyg @sammy_lee12 I would definitely second that nomination!!

    4 yrs ago, relationship in “Her” was considered sci-fi. In 2017, “it’s pretty frigging close.” Hardware exists now. #YOWConnected @whalec https://t.co/9kmYXsEAfF

    Gearing up for 3rd conference in a week. Not even sure what day it is anymore… (@ Melbourne Airport (MEL)) https://t.co/DmTpKsKiGd


    @evanderkoogh Melbourne for Connected!


    Actual proof that @evanderkoogh and I were in the same place at the same time. Briefly. And it was windy. 🌬😁😁 https://t.co/fin93YcGDA


    @melissa_loh Haha, I did the same with mine!


    @evanderkoogh Though clearly Mother Nature objected to the disruption of the universe.


    @knightstickc Bunting?!
