RT @ignitesydney: Submit a talk proposal at Ignite Sydney

That’s right, we’ll be back on June 22nd. Propose a talk now! https://t.co/jWLY9…


That’s some @canva ingenuity right there. πŸ˜‚ https://t.co/K1grxehQQI


Hey @ignitesydney – what’s the deadline for submissions? https://t.co/Bt6tLaQxDg


@mootpointer @stephenlead I’m trying to convince @the_snook to submit one. First time ever with husband & wife on the same bill? πŸ˜›


@randomknits DAMMIT. I’ve been meaning to go to Uniqlo and pick up a shirt for three weeks now! (It’s lovely!)


@DanSiepen @coderfactory Hey, I know that guy! Used to work with him. Way to go, Kartik!


Seriously tempted to propose “Why Aussies Should Celebrate Halloween” for @ignitesydney – but legit worried I could get flamed/trolled!


@DanSiepen @coderfactory Haha, I actually heard you’re going to be in our office tomorrow night! I’m heading to @GGDSydney instead though πŸ™


@stephenlead @mootpointer @the_snook Oh good grief. Yeah, we’re not topping that. πŸ˜‚


@TheRealBnut Well, you guys do fancy dress for Christmas, which is just WEIRD and also WAY TOO HOT for it.


@TheRealBnut Halloween is super fun! Ghosts and pumpkins and parties and candy. What’s not to like?


@TheRealBnut Yes, yes, you don’t have the tradition. Guess what? Easter and Christmas aren’t native Australian either.


@TheRealBnut And don’t give me the “Halloween is rampant American commercialism” crap. Halloween is the most DIY holiday of them all. πŸ™‚


@tcn33 @ignitesydney I’m sure I would have my supporters. It’s the frothing readership of the Daily Terrorgraph that I fear.


@TheRealBnut But I actually had a better idea: how to prepare for the zombie apocalypse. I’m submitting that one right now. πŸ™‚


@DanSiepen @coderfactory I can be a little late to GGD and catch you during the socialisation time!


@TheRealBnut Everybody! Every work Christmas party has a theme. No Christmas parties in America have a dress-up theme.


@TheRealBnut Oh man. I hope that one gets picked. 5 minutes of research and I already have SO MANY IDEAS.


@TheRealBnut OOOHHH MAN. Lock picking. That’s awesome. I wonder if anyone teaches it as a team building activity?!


@TheRealBnut Tantric yoga, Charleston, essential oils, and optimism? Those are not survival skills. Might as well be telephone sanitation!

@rosepowell @TheRealBnut We had an in-depth discussion about this at the 4m schnitzel lunch. @sebastiangrail wins because he has a cow!


@rosepowell @TheRealBnut @sebastiangrail It was a wedding gift. The problem is it’s out in the country. It’s a conundrum.


Fun photo of me, @developerjack, and @pwcc from @SydCSS last week! Thanks @darylljann. πŸ™‚ https://t.co/KxtwNt4vnG https://t.co/G7SFP2SvD0

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown.
