    @gilmae Ohhhhhh. I gotcha. (Was there a horn??)


    @andee_marks I can’t wait to see the video of your talk. If the tweets were anything to go by, I’m expecting to be blown away! 🙂

    Does NASA use Agile? Not really – it’s hard to iterate when your only full test happens as the thing is plummeting to Mars! #yowwest https://t.co/0cTTV6348O

    Incremental innovation improves; disruptive changes the business model; but radical innovation changes the MEANING #yowwest https://t.co/m4J7w2ndG3


    997/1000 startups fail – not repeatable, viable, scalable, and customers don’t want! All of which means NO 💰. #yowwest @AshleyAitken https://t.co/Vgws696Anj

    Startups are in Search mode – goal is to find business model. Only then can they evolve into big company in Execution mode. #yowwest https://t.co/sn82Gn6N1l


    #1 advice for people working in startups – GET OUT OF THE BUILDING. Preferably close enough to see pupils dilate when you talk! 😳#yowwest

    @starbuxman @yow_conf Regretting not flying in a day earlier!


    Don’t forget Melbourne – even if you’re not at #yowwest or #lambdajam, you can still see @bodil Thursday! https://t.co/6uGKdQPTLD https://t.co/dDDRSlctBX


    A new record TTBDTM: 20 seconds. (Time in Taxi Before Donald Trump is Mentioned.) ‘ken oath, mate.


    RT @pyconau: This is the LAST WEEK before the #pyconau Call for Proposals closes! https://t.co/9QBAur3yJq


    @DDsD I deleted Uber. I’d rather have to hear about DT than support them at present.


    @robdmoore @bodil I’m still honestly not sure which parts (if any) are fiction. 😂

    Frontend meetup happening next week has 6 dudes speaking. 😐 Any Sydney women available for last min lightning talk? DM for details.


    Because yeah, I’m not going to promote events that don’t seem to have made any good faith effort at diversity. 🙁


    @randomknits My prediction is you sign on for a PhD.


    Men of the world – when your partner asks for a hairstyle assessment, “wide” and “triangle” are not words that should come out of your mouth


    @USPSHelp Well, it was night in Australia where I live, but I appreciate the sentiment. 🙂


    @randomknits Dr. Randomknits has a nice ring to it!


    Found @bekathwia’s blog post about Emission Spectra Scarves but PDFs all 404. https://t.co/OoJkl7lNYI to the rescue! https://t.co/CH4zZBp8iH


    I reckon tungsten is my favourite. https://t.co/0v4pjchqaU https://t.co/QahDE3wQwS


    @bekathwia The Python pattern generator appears lost to the ages though. 🙁 Would love to help get that back up running if I can!


    @evanderkoogh “Wow, you’ve really got some volume happening there, but I’m not sure that shape suits your face.” See? Not so hard! 😜


    @jesstelford You can cross mine off your list! @JedWatson got back to me. All good. 🙂


    I should be in full-on #yowwest prep mode. Anybody else procrastinating on packing? https://t.co/i72bFuYLCI


    Wow, @canva’s own @poppiepack got linked on Metafilter and it wasn’t even me! 👏 https://t.co/2hvE8eo2m0


    AskMeFi: suggestions for Arrested Development themed party foods. My suggestion was “Banger in the Mouth”. 😂 https://t.co/5leyKPRVYm

    Inspired by @zpbappi’s #SyPy talk last night to train neural network to knit a sweater with an MNIST dataset motif. https://t.co/7cs42cwrl7 https://t.co/xZracH93vE


    Super cool. Can’t wait for our trip to see the eclipse! https://t.co/vKnoMSE5si


    @mage0r @zpbappi @chixors ARGH, I keep meaning to meet up with @chixors when I’m in Melbs. I’ll be their next Thursday night for this: https://t.co/6uGKdQPTLD


    Sydney: don’t miss your chance to see @mseckington and @bodil on May 9. They don’t get to Oz very often! https://t.co/ggPPItN94G #SyPy


    @delitescere @Doctor_Astro @PlanetDr Do they need any chaperones?? 😛


    @delitescere @Doctor_Astro @PlanetDr I am super qualified! https://t.co/eWpogmApyX


    @iamnotyourbroom The hilarious thing is today’s wasn’t even prompted by own mentions! https://t.co/n6oczFghAW @jedws


    Experienced JS devs – @NodeGirlsSydney needs mentors for the NodeBots session. Earn some good karma and volunteer! https://t.co/3o1yik9r9E


    @BezPublic @melissaekline That’s the short version. Here’s the long one. 🙂 https://t.co/Qck6Pp1odZ


    @nconnaughton Visiting fam in Indiana, then Chicago, then hiking in Yellowstone, then eclipse in middle-of-nowhere Wyoming. 🙂


    RT @yow_conf: #yowwest is just days away! We cannot wait to see you all in Perth, so don’t forget your tickets https://t.co/mGFrW89wK0


    @charis Nah, sending Dave on his own this time I think. Look for me in June or July. (Hmmmm. @webconf_asia…)


    @msharp @LookaheadSearch Ooh, is the crowd assembling? I’m still on the couch!

    @LeenaVanD I got Gold Frequent Flyer status this year. So now I’m a fancy person who sits in a lounge instead of waiting at the gate.


    @LeenaVanD Well, TBH I’m still boggled by seeing children in there. I didn’t take my first trip on an airplane until I was 16.


    @LeenaVanD I’ve still never flown in anything but Economy. I think *that* would be the real mindfuck.

    @demanrisu @LeenaVanD Yeah, I reckon that would ruin me.


    @Xavier_Ho We’re subsidising travel for domestic speakers for @yow_conf at our smaller events this year! But yeah, in the past I’ve had to self-fund. 😒


    @Xavier_Ho And always use incognito window to check prices. They bump it up on repeat visits from same browser. 😡


    @developerjack Yeah. It’s the only thing that makes having to file with IRS bearable. I always pay more here, so no tax due there thankfully.


    Julian kicking things off at #SyPy tonight. @glasnt is up first! https://t.co/YrJ9S2oqb9


    Even when @glasnt isn’t officially talking about emoji, she still works in emoji. 🐍 #SyPy https://t.co/oN3DmQnEa5


    @DamonOehlman Flagging to make sure you saw it. 😉 https://t.co/QoByYjlmak


    @cathyblabla @200ok @msharp I got the Logitech 400 too. About $70 I think? Mine has a sticker so I don’t confuse it with all the other folks’.


    Imagining a Tech Talk Pun-Off Death Match between @glasnt and @FakeSamRitchie. Not sure where I’d put my $ to be honest…
