Just did a literal double-take at the further Material Design-ification of my Google calendar. Some days I miss good ol’ HTML checkboxes. https://t.co/hKCEGHrdmu


My new Twitter buddy @Lifeofmle is presenting for the first time at #SydCSS! https://t.co/Bno2w5JG5Q


Big crowd at @hipages for #SydCSS tonight. Strong representation from the @CoderAcademy_au folks too! https://t.co/aNSZuKYqEb


Early highlights of #SydCSS: meeting the elusive “Simon Gilmore,” and TACOS! 🌮🌯 https://t.co/8xuTpF9t2G


“We have a WordPress website. We’re not gonna throw that out just so we can use Vue for sweet transitions…” @Lifeofmle bring pragmatic and getting support from the #SydCSS crowd. https://t.co/gN3CKaoW0V


“Conversation is the best handoff.” That applies to so much more than just development! #SydCSS @Lifeofmle https://t.co/hoQeX7yekk


Lots of interest in our second talk at #SydCSS – Benjamin from @hidovetail talking masonry layouts. (“This talk is not sponsored by Pinterest.”) 😂 https://t.co/u7vxnJrbgY


Great way to build a talk! Benjamin is taking us through the same example using Flex, CSS columns, and CSS grid showing the drawbacks and challenges for each. @hidovetail #SydCSS https://t.co/Jaet1CPwf2


@hidovetail The winner, if you’re curious, was CSS grid by a mile! #SydCSS https://t.co/DA2Z4Fd8LG


Awww, @mobywhale is here in spirit. 😂❤️ #SydCSS https://t.co/ICT87Esk5t


Thinking of adding BaaS (Banter as a Service) to my LinkedIn profile. I expect a recommendation from @dp_lewis for that one… 😂


I’m claiming this victory. #SydCSS 👊 https://t.co/RHqoZajyiF


@mobywhale We missed you!!! ❤️❤️ And @hannahyanfield too…


@auxesis You just reminded me that @darthted wants to lock you in at @SydTechLeaders in May to talk about toxic cultures…


Best. Photo. Ever. (Sorry, Declan.) @dp_lewis https://t.co/VxzpbXzyau


@mattgillard @decryption I can second that. Networking is often a gap for many folks I see going for solutions architect roles.
