    RT @JedWatson: Nearly ready to kick off @NodeGirlsSydney! https://t.co/ZdRvWI90ON


    They’re talking about me. o_O @NodeGirlsSydney https://t.co/xUZI3yKYf8


    I let @JedWatson guilt me into doing the more advanced class. Crossing my fingers I’m not out of my depth… @NodeGirlsSydney


    RT @coderfactory: Thanks to our fellow sponsors who make @NodeGirlsSydney possible! #WIT #code #diversity https://t.co/beAOWasLFx


    Boom. πŸŽ‰ @NodeGirlsSydney https://t.co/x2OGLTisd2

    Hey @asmallorange – I can’t login to my controlpanel on groot. Any ideas? Just timing out every time.


    Spying on @kakaCharlotte as she masters NodeJS. @NodeGirlsSydney https://t.co/seucr0VxRx


    @DanSiepen I liked the @coderfactory artwork, but I reckon you should think about adding some plants. πŸ™‚ https://t.co/kNtOD8Hc0b


    RT @swearyanthony: I assume that if Clover gets back, next time they’ll give businesses like 12 votes each


    RT @ButenkoMe: One more amazing @NodeGirlsSydney event took place @coderfactory today https://t.co/lGh3HYUh3A


    @DanSiepen Heheh. Check your DMs. πŸ™‚


    @drzax Congratulations!!

    RT @DanHershfield: Never has it been more clear that this election is The Article vs. The Comments Section.


    Really excited to be hosting this event at @canva! https://t.co/PckxUerqYw


    RT @drzax: Seriously though, come learn web scraping: https://t.co/XBQSUMrmtp https://t.co/FMgAz7D2HE


    @chrisgander @DDsD Sometimes you get tired of taking the high road. I didn’t tweet it, but I sure as heck thought it when I saw the article.


    @DDsD @chrisgander Also, objectification and criticism of looks is common to anti-feminist men. So the impulse is to turn it back on them.


    @DDsD @chrisgander But yeah. Totally childish. Two wrongs don’t make a right. But sometimes people lash out. I understand the impulse.


    RT @markdalgleish: If you’re trying to improve the candidate experience in your hiring process, this post is really insightful: https://t.c…


    RT @ksylor: I made a website to explain how to get yourself out of your git messes in plain english https://t.co/6Rc6YTPM3o


    Telling all the women at #nodegirls how awesome PHP is to freak out @twalve and @JedWatson.

    Second session today with my mentor. Really loving it so far! Great to get practical advice and encouragement from someone I admire.


    @Jonwestenberg I agonised over it for a couple years. Finally a friend kicked me in the bum and convinced me to just ask. And it worked!


    @Jonwestenberg There’s a small mention in this post: https://t.co/l85WpTpf8p. But I’ll write a more in-depth one at some point. πŸ‘


    YEAH, BABY. (Thanks Andy!!) https://t.co/x6Q7VTh9EO https://t.co/4VEwvWYuw5


    RT @laurenfraz: .@ArlanWasHere the Techdel test:
    1. 2 women and/or poc
    2. giving two different talks
    3. about something other than diversit…


    Hey @customICING – I just got 2 emails about orders I placed three years ago. Your new system appears to be somewhat faulty!


    It’s @mobywhale and @msharp kicking off #SydCSS. (Where’s @dp_lewis?! Tsk tsk.) https://t.co/N4kCKfiupV


    @snookca WAIT. You’re in Oz? We must meet. I’m actually married to @the_snook. I feel like you shouldn’t meet. Don’t cross the streams.


    @snookca Awesome. If you spot a tall chick in a jumper with a pear on it in the break, that’s me.


    Ha. @vlh just described cubic-bezier as “number barf.” #SydCSS https://t.co/U7Nvun2rQ4


    YOU GUYS. I just met THE OTHER SNOOK at #SydCSS. @snookca is here. But @the_snook is home. Maybe they cannot coexist in the same place?!


    Proof: me and @snookca. Who looks enough like @the_snook and @diversionary to be weird. https://t.co/PRfWqybhT2


    @gilmae I’M SO CONFUSED


    Bearded men. A bit of grey. Spectacles. Coders. 😱 @diversionary @snookca @the_snook https://t.co/JWYFroJoh9


    @hal9zillion @diversionary @snookca @the_snook It’s like Vertigo. I’m surrounded by THE SAME MAN.


    @Lackadazy @imdominating The real question is when and where auditions are being held. “RHONDA CHANGED MY LIFE!”


    Ask MeFi: My best manager did this… https://t.co/s6c13WxqcL Ooh. Required reading for anyone in a leadership role.


    Early voting. No queue! (@ St Barnabas Church – @barneysbroadway in Ultimo, New South Wales) https://t.co/54mLrRPb6G


    Judging by the tweets, @lucykbain nailed her talk. Doing the Syd tech women proud!! https://t.co/HX7dzserhf


    RT @GracieNoLag: Interesting keynote choice, I relate to the stories! I wonder if the conference will be friendlier/more open b/c of this o…


    RT @tveastman: It’s nice to have an opening keynote that presents a picture of the kind of community we want to foster and grow #kiwipycon

    @gilmae You’re like that dude whose wife won the swimming medal, and they attributed it all to him. πŸ™‚ @randomknits


    @imdominating I haven’t even listened to it yet. πŸ™ I watched video of BET Awards performance though. HOLY SHIT. Watch it NOW if you havn’t.


    Nope, nope, not clicking, not scrolling. NEVER NEVER. https://t.co/mSGgU7JSz1


    @glasnt Congratulations! I’m annoyed I’ve yet to see an emoji talk. πŸ™


    This was one of the experiments suggested at the first #equalityhacks meetup. Hoping some Aussie firms try it! https://t.co/MCrGL0s6Kq


    @gilmae Huh. That’s taking it to extreme – but maybe I’m overestimating how many women actually apply for tech roles. @darthted – thoughts?


    HOLY CRAP BICYCLES + FABRIC SHOPPING. That is so very much my thing. Thanks @ADuckIsMyFiend for the tip! https://t.co/FIZl4P8faf


    Someone just learned to cable! #womenintech #stitchandbitch https://t.co/wNYyJN5VKz https://t.co/exqnnnsWK5


    Chicks dig guys with skills. Nunchuck skills, command line skills… (Props to @the_snook for helping me debug an NPM problem!)

    @200ok Are you going to re-run it at all? I’d love to do it, but that’s also WordCamp AND SheHacks weekend. πŸ™


    RT @yow_oz: We’re excited to have @qanderson7 speaking at our 1st #YOWData conf on keeping systems up to date https://t.co/Rtk6wdSLGE


    @200ok Good tip – thanks. Just did it. (Somehow managed to miss that form field when I looked at it!)


    Going out to a special Old Coll’s dinner with a dapper businessman. https://t.co/HNKtWFyewn https://t.co/W0nmAYmz01


    You guys I am basically about to eat dinner at Australian Hogwarts. (@ Wesley College) https://t.co/YGi4sv9bOQ https://t.co/Lw9ML1p9O1


    Spotted a familiar name… (last on the list!) https://t.co/YmxgJwVxiY https://t.co/TQxdDdmltk


    @gilmae It kinda looked like that!


    In the city for a tech event before 7am. BLEURGH.


    @busbub “Disrupting the Disruptors” breakfast. Not even kidding.


    “Disruptors” brekkie this morning. So many big companies struggling to foster culture of innovation. Startups like @canva have it easier!


    TIL BaaS (Beer as a Service) is an actual real thing. @chrisdoble will be so pleased.
