I'm so excited to see this play out live on stage 👀

Rehearsal for @heypresents.com this May coming went well (*) … so excited for it! 🤩

(* "well" as in: now I know that I need to trim 7 minutes from my talk somehow 😅)

Have you ever felt like your quiet nature holds you back in a loud world? As an introvert, Fiona used to think that being reserved meant she’d struggle to connect or stand out.

I love talks that find something interesting to dig into at the intersection of tech and music, so I'm so excited to hear this talk from Anjana!

Yesterday was my last day at Deno.

From today, I'll be cheering the talented team on from outside the org.

This also means that I'm now considering my next move in the DX/DevRel/Technical marketing space.

This talk explores where agents fracture first, and what that reveals about whether they are built to serve people, or merely optimise for statistical averages."

@scott.is reached out asking how he could support the conference, which goes a long way to show how incredible our community is. Thanks so much for the support, Scott, and check out the Mindful Design resources and book if you haven't already.

Here's the consultation i mentioned at #sotb26 I'm not kidding when I told you that the regularlors love to hear from developers rather than lobbyists. Doesn't need to be a structured doc. You can be anonymous. They simply want hear to your view. brucelawson.co.uk/2026/on-appl...

Those were the days.

Time to upgrade your frame, maybe?

It’s a good sign when your feed lights up with everyone at #SotB26 #SotB, if you see me wandering around come and say hello!

It has taken 10 years of being on the @heypresents.com stage as MC to secure a slot to actually give a talk. So, you know... I better not screw it up.

Tickets for this final edition are going.
Get yours.

I'm so excited to see Phil give this talk, the last ever talk we'll have at the conference. It seems fitting, and I can't wait to hear it.

This in turn renders the outputted Markdown file in the terminal, reading: Cassie Evans Cassie’s an SVG nerd, creative developer and educator. As part of the team behind GSAP, she supports the community with resources that make learning web animation more approachable. ## Game On! Cassie’s taking GSAP for a spin in a live-coded game, and the direction it takes is up to you. With input from the audience, the game will take shape in real time. Characters? Enemies? Explosions? Syntax errors that break the whole thing (hopefully not). Who knows, anything could happen.

How can we learn from their experience to get better at web accessibility? With the guidance of Bill and Ted we'll explore the ups and downs I went through teaching accessibility, and why focusing on testing works so well.

And now @gemmastow.bsky.social has joined Bluesky I can tag her in it, too!

When you've had the experience of working through these sort of tasks manually, moments like this can feel a lot like cheating, and I for one am very happy to cheat in this area.

The server did crash with an obscure bug during the testing phase and Claude also helped patch that, too. It pains me to think how many weeks or months in the past have been lost to big upgrades in non-trivial apps.
