@gilmae Did you see the list of games? https://t.co/kkSceZnARJ They had me at Dr. Mario.
@gilmae As soon as I read SMB3, I immediately thought the words TANOOKI SUIT for the first time in probably 25 years.
RT @DamonOehlman: Sydney folks – if you are keen on hacking around with JS and hardware, we’ve got you covered: https://t.co/pOueBMxjgy (30โฆ
Awww, thank you! The power of red lippie and my @welovecolors tights. ๐ https://t.co/HwPAxh8TOl
@codepo8 @welovecolors @knitterjp They’re my Talismans of Confidence that enable me to show off my planet sized brain. ๐
@lemon_lime @knitterjp NARS Matte Pencil in Dragon Girl (aka Taylor Swift’s fave). ๐
So relevant to this morning’s #equalityhacks event and last night’s @SydTechLeaders panel discussion. https://t.co/Q0a654we1i
@daphnechong NICE! The iView Transcoding World Tour continues! ๐
The Reddit effect. @RoaldDahlFans got a link this week… https://t.co/BMBfR7qq9l
@evanderkoogh @daphnechong I feel left out. Can I still join in for drinking?
@evanderkoogh @daphnechong OUCH, ERWIN.
@gilmae That all depends if @samplecoffeebar will make me one… @diversionary – what do you think? ๐
@liamvhogan I know right? I binged the last season over the course of a week. THE WINDOWS NEVER, EVER ARRIVE ON TIME, PEOPLE. YOU KNOW THIS.
Lesson of the day: sometimes Asking works!!
@jontv That would be great. I get there every now and then. Iโll let you know. ๐

@diversionary Clearly, you haven’t been following along. It’s quite the saga.
Deleted. I am officially Pokemon GOne.
@thisismywww I thought yesterday you said you still might be playing it?
Looking forward to tonight’s @SydTechLeaders meetup on tech company culture. It’s a tricky thing to get right! https://t.co/Y37spcoV5Q
@i386 I don’t like games that require no skill and give a competitive advantage to those who pay. Also people are OBSESSED and BORING ME. ๐
@taybenlor @i386 Well, for the record neither of you were among the ones boring me. ๐
@hal9zillion Hey, I’m an influencer. Once I go, you can set your watch on it. ๐
Getting underway at @SydTechLeaders with @owensenior! #sydtechleaders https://t.co/nMOsItXYCO

RT @mobywhale: Always great to see @web_goddess present. #sydtechleaders https://t.co/6wRCxNnmsc
Iโve heard @brettporter mention having the NBN in Townsville before, and Iโm still jealous. #sydtechleaders https://t.co/wVUpY94Cyw
RT @evolvable: “Branded hoodies and free beer is not as good as just being together.” – @web_goddess at #sydtechleaders on #startup #culture
@NickDigitalSyd @canva YOU VIDEOED IT?! Oh good grief. I donโt even know what I said. ๐
@Reidyd I think Chippendale is the last suburb on the list. @the_snook tried to convince me we should move to Kiama to get it.
Taking the microphone from @matt_barrie and launching into a Matt Barrie rant will forever be a career highlight. Thank you @SydTechLeaders!
RT @evolvable: 1st class panel at #sydtechleaders tonight. HT @brettporter @BrettIredale @web_goddess @davidbanham @matt_barrie https://t.cโฆ
@themaninblue Alastair said Hi. ๐ https://t.co/pWoTVukbTR
@evolvable @matt_barrie I donโt have $ but absolutely time & effort. I help at GPN, girl geeks, hackathons, etc. Visibility helps a lot.
@evolvable @matt_barrie GPN = exactly that program. https://t.co/sXj7avEbIf
@GRobilliard @mobywhale Thanks for the mental support tonight. ๐ Best cheer squad ever. (And Hannah too since she doesn’t do the Twitter!)
@evolvable Ah. There you run into the limits of my authority. ๐ But I can put you in touch with the right folks. ๐
@mobywhale @GRobilliard @hannahyanfield WHAT WHAT WHAAAAAAATTTT??? I CAN TWEET HANNAH ANY TIME NOW?
@evolvable Just that I feel strongly as a woman in the industry I need to be visible as an example. Just giving $ isn’t really enough.
@evolvable You can’t be what you can’t see. The only woman computer engineer I saw growing up was my Mom.
@evolvable That was exactly my high school. The Computer Lab was full of guys. The “Business PC Lab” was for girls (ie secretaries).
@evolvable Absolutely. @DanSiepen organised something like that recently – one of my colleagues went along.
@simonraikallen @mattallen @benschwarz @DurrantLuke @DominicDirupo I live in #hippendale. Plenty of startups here. ๐
@hannahyanfield @mobywhale @GRobilliard This is truly mindblowing. I am speechless.
TAKE MY MONEY NOW. https://t.co/JMxznbmlnf
@evolvable @dosinga @themaninblue For the record, I said that free beer and hoodies were still very nice things. ๐
@mcflydesign WE NEED FOR THE OFFICE!!!!
@mcflydesign I saw an article with the games it comes with. Holy hell. WANT.

@darthted Nice! Do they make ’em for Australian power, or you using a converter?
@darthted D’oh! Genius.
Sometimes married life means getting a message from your 40yo husband crowing “I HAZ PIKACHU!”
@jontv Thanks! I revisited it at a local tech meetup recently. Longer version: https://t.co/FyMBfRCY2B

@peterfinlan I think Iโm going to delete the game. One person in the house being obsessed is enough. ๐

I was suddenly reminded today of a Star Wars cover band I saw play in 1996 (with Joe Liedtke, I think?) and wondered if it was possible to find them online. Ten minutes and a few bucks later, I’m downloading the album.
YOW has posted the video of the conference talk I gave in Perth back in May! I cringed a bit rewatching it – “um” and “so” are definitely my verbal tics – but you know what? It’s pretty good! I’m really happy with how that turned out.
