Ash Davies @ashdavies@mastodon.cloud

Here's a sneak preview of my talk tomorrow...

OK, I have something that looks like a talk, still very bullet point heavy, and not near enough jokes and cat pics, but I can work with this.

Feeling very worried now that Droidcon Berlin is starting this week, with everybody travelling, and I've not yet finished my slides! 😱😬

I think Apple released the AirPods first, which may have introduced the idea first, I still love it

I'm trying out the Pixel Buds A, and I mostly enjoy being able to charge the case whilst using them, one of my biggest dislikes of not being able to charge a headset whilst using it.

Oh, the last one to the right is from my GF who went as a Steueramterin for Halloween

I put up a shelf behind my desk for conference lanyards, I like to collect them :)

Another question, what might make you feel pride in your work, or how do you view the quality of code? Clean code? Up-to-date architecture, appropriate use of technology?

Next week I'm giving a talk on hype driven development, and I'd love to hear some feedback from the community.

What does hype mean to you?
What topics would you like to see covered?
Which questions might you have?

Thanks everybody!

What are your favourite libraries?
How did you learn about them?
Would you recommend experimental libraries?

People who talk on the phone whilst on a train are right next to my list of assholes wh deserve a special place in hell, right next to the aeroplane seat recliners and absent mothers

My bad, it wasn't a nursery, but a nappy changing room with a bad translation

I'm on a train in France with a nursery on board...
A nursery, on a train.

I'll just leave this here.

Woohoo! Can't express how excited I am for this!
