    @xysense_io @smartselling @mattallen @MOVUSFitMachine @blackbirdvc Brilliant – will definitely add you to my list!! Thanks 🙂

    @ghammadi @Zendesk @envato LOL. Just realised the Tardis was from my shirt. 😂

    @FCTweedie @yow_conf Yayyy, I was so excited to see you on the list! Congrats!

    @vbhvsgr @YOWLambdaJam WOOOOOO! Congrats!!

    STOP DOING THIS, MEN. 🤬 https://t.co/pjEYn11oKo

    @Mandy_Kerr I think would find it disorientating if it skipped without intervention by me.

    Number of mattresses abandoned on footpath of Chippendale, as counted on my walk to the bakery: 5. Ugh.

    @yow_conf @Amys_Kapers @YOWLambdaJam @unixbigot @FakeSamRitchie I thought he was in double digits? That maybe counting all three stops for YOW though.

    @martinabbott Hm. I dunno. I’m skeptical it would just be used to serve ads to me, plus I imagine getting annoyed at even more folks wandering around following invisible arrows. I vote for a special day when only organised folks are allowed to shop. 😛

    @Meligy I had to unfollow you – some app is posting dozens and dozens of automated tweets as you every 10-20 minutes! Will refollow when you fix it 🙂

    Always suspected my stupidly high prescription made my eyes look smaller. Today I realised I had the technology to prove it. 😕 (Back to my contact lenses…) https://t.co/IbuDbxlPQa

    @gilmae I moved my head slightly on the second photo so I had to zoom it to get the same head size. I used guides. (It was a highly scientific process.)

    @brianleroux You wear lenses now? I think I’ve gotta take these off; they’re giving me a headache.

    @Meligy Phew! And I’m follow you again. 🙂

    LazyTwitter: what Australian companies are doing cool things with enterprise IoT? (I’m sure @mattallen has some ideas….)

    @mattallen @MOVUSFitMachine @blackbirdvc @xysense_io Nope – let’s just say I’m doing a bit of research around a potential future tech event. 🙂

    @mattallen @MOVUSFitMachine @blackbirdvc @xysense_io Those ones are awesome though, thank you! Basically looking to for anyone in Oz doing cool things in various IoT enterprise verticals.

    @JamesKingsmill @mattallen @Jack_Simpson Oh that’s very cool, thanks!

    @polleyg @mattallen CONNECTED VINEYARD? Sir, I salute you. (No, I didn’t know about that one!) 😁 That’s awesome!

    @DeveloperSteve @lorderikir @mattallen @telstradev Dude, you were like the second one I wrote down, of course.

    @itgrrl @JamesKingsmill @mattallen @Jack_Simpson https://t.co/Bvqrd6plhO

    @i386 This will only be acceptable if there are designated hours when people like me, who actually plan their shopping and know that the hell they’re doing, get the store all to themselves without having to trip over AR nutbars following invisible arrows. 😝

    @SiteMinderLife Thank you @GunningNeil !!!

    @unixbigot Yo! We have just today added a short notice YOW Night in Brisbane happening on the 17th! Can you mention at the meetup if you get a chance? 😄 https://t.co/V0s8aeSKnP

    @levelsconf @GeoffreyHuntley @glenntstephens @yow_conf @NDC_Conferences @AlterConf @WriteTheDocsAU There’s a great Open Source list from our friends at @readify here! https://t.co/hk0VceptpQ

    This @WWCSyd workshop is less about Scala and more about practicing some common FP concepts. Happy to report that bits of my @queenslandfplab Haskell course are coming back to me!

    @kevdesign @unixbigot @BrisJS Ooh, thanks! Was just about to email you with a link to some slides, if you want ’em. 🙂

    Okay, with his appearance at @YOWLambdaJam this year, @unixbigot has to be challenging @FakeSamRitchie in terms of number of @yow_conf events spoken at, right?! 😵

    @i386 Youngin’. I miss the web of 2001.

    @jonoabroad @i386 Excuse me, I have been running a website continuously since 1996. 💅

    @mjpt777 What are you designing?

    @mjpt777 I like that you described it as a rat hole instead of a rabbit hole!

    This is awesome. Well done @SarahMoran! https://t.co/BzJKjepRNG

    @hj_chen @Mandy_Kerr I keep talking you up to @johnallsopp whenever I see him. 😂

    @gilmae Shrimp fried rice?

    @developerjack @WordPress Thanks. I’m wary given that I only just took the WordPress plunge a few years back, and having a re-migrate (or at least, test and potentially tweak) 1400 pages and 600+ posts involving custom functions and shortcodes isn’t appealing. ☹️

    @DataScienceMelb Heya! I’ve got an idea for a possible data-focused event collaboration with you folks. Any interest?

    @randomknits PHHHHHEEEEEEEWWWWWWWW

    Me: I haven’t had one of these in decades! But damn, I need the energy.
    Rodd: I don’t think it has caffeine in it here.
    Me: WHAT. *checks can* “Not recommended for children, pregnant or lactating women or individuals sensitive to caffeine” YES! https://t.co/QsJTGDpzL4

    This thread. ⬇️ (Reminds me of the time I was showing an ex-colleague the light-up Arduino knitted hat I designed and made, when he asked out of nowhere if my husband had written the code. 🙄) https://t.co/aHaJY4MgLU

    @TheRealBnut My teeth feel like I’ve eaten a whole bag of candy. So even if it didn’t have caffeine, I’d still be jumping from the sugar, I guess.

    HOLY CRAP – CONGRATS TO THE IRISH WOMEN! NATIONAL CHAMPIONS! ☘️😍🏆

    @TheRealBnut @espn She barely had time to even look at the basket before she was shooting it. It’s amazing.

    @TheRealBnut @espn And that’s actually the second game in a row where she’s won it at the last second. The previous one was in overtime too!

    RT @emd3737: Congratulations to my alma mater @NotreDame for winning the women’s basketball NCAA championship!

    Back to it! Step 10 – sew back darts. https://t.co/mCOa4q4Aob

    Step 11 – prep button and buttonhole plackets. Mine are grown on and seamless. (Less work!) https://t.co/mXsZLcKbLo

    Step 12 – time for a yoke burrito! Such a cool technique to hide all the yoke and shoulder seams. https://t.co/h3Tj0LIeXR

    Step 13 – starting the sleeves! Cuff guard attached. https://t.co/JKHi55HIRz

    Step 14 – folding and attaching the sleeve placket! https://t.co/NqKmIgROdd

    RT @JodiMcA: S3 is CLEARLY the best. Like, how there opinions other than this. #PaceysCreek https://t.co/Vm594I9Urd

    @tesshilsob I don’t love this particular technique as it results in a small bit of raw edge on the inside. I know Colette does a single piece one – I might go back to the for the next one. https://t.co/Q8opaFLh8m

    Step 15 – setting in the sleeves! https://t.co/mpaRmq7O8R

    Step 16 – flat-felling the armhole seam. This means encasing the seam allowance so it’s totally clean on the inside! https://t.co/A8lTAwWhK0

    @j__st Heya! I’m trying the slashed hem on this Simon, and the docs don’t cover that. Anything special I should know?

    @j__st Will do. I’m reading this: https://t.co/DmgmCZJYIB. Seems like having a small raw bit at the top of the vent is unavoidable with a French seam.

    @j__st Ooh, that’s fun. Maybe I’ll do that. 🙂

    @j__st I’ve got a doc bug report for you too! The captions on the images on Simon Step 8 are incorrect. They refer to yokes instead of darts.

    @emd3737 You guys have been away foreverrrrrrrr!

    @j__st I was tempted to submit a PR but I wasn’t sure where. 😂 By the way – is there a change log for patterns anywhere? I notice this Simon is a much later version than my earlier and I’m curious to know what changed.

    @j__st ON IT!

    If you are wondering why I don’t take sewing commissions, this thread is why. I’ve got about 15 hours invested so far in this project, and I’m still not done. At my hourly rate, it makes for a very expensive garment. 🤑 https://t.co/45mDKo4DcO

    Step 17 – sewing side seams. https://t.co/fyXyrbwxen

    Step 18 – fit check. YAY! Getting there. 😁 https://t.co/Nzh55LzzSY

    You might think I am embarrassed by my office nerdery displayed in this photo. You would be wrong. I’m only annoyed that Rodd’s head blocks my autographed Captain Typho to complete the Star Wars trifecta! https://t.co/TCKtdsuWWI

    @Thriobologist Not in the slightest! 😂

    @minxdragon Check out https://t.co/tUHQZmPPdK. It’s really clever. I also love that none of the patterns are gendered – the software just takes into account whether breasts are involved or not. (I gotta say – it’s so much nicer sewing for someone without boobs.)

    Step 19 – flat-felling the side/sleeve seams. This includes the tricky (but secretly enjoyable) bit where you sew down *inside* the sleeve, inch by inch. Best armpit finish I’ve ever done! 😍 https://t.co/4ld7whWHek

    @minxdragon Yup. You just upload the measurements, fork the pattern, and it generates a draft exactly to your specs. I’m about to submit some PRs to Github for it too. 😍 Sewing + nerdery LOVE.

    @j__st I *think* I just submitted a PR. (This will be my second ever open source contribution!)

    TFW you finish a day of sewing by submitting a PR for the docs to help others. 😇 https://t.co/J2mL9xOq9E (Thanks @j__st!)

    @Mandy_Kerr @hj_chen I want to attend this party!

    @gilmae I think so. I remember a quote about it being weird to have the power to basically boot somebody from the Internet.

    I need to read this every time I underrate myself or feel like I don’t belong. https://t.co/6THrxNqlKd

    @shanselman Very cool. We visited in 2007 and got to see them prepping for one of the last launches!

    @hj_chen I’ve been using @TheOldReader for a few years now and I’m happy!

    We avoided cast iron for years out of fear that it’s hard to take care of. Bought one a few years back after reading @seriouseats care guide and haven’t looked back. Makes the *best* cornbread too! https://t.co/AnhFFlxeCQ

    Starting a new project – another Simon Shirt from @freesewing_org for the Snook! Step 1 – forking a new version of the pattern, printing, and assembling the pieces. https://t.co/oiM4CKjTqZ

    Step 2 – washing and ironing this beautiful Liberty Saville Poplin from @LoveFabricStore. https://t.co/MKrmyuUI7D https://t.co/cWDMKReHDe

    @NYTimesWordplay Honestly, I was torn between thinking the trick was really MEAN and the EXHILARATION when we figured it out and it all started to fit. 👏

    Step 3 – cutting and marking. (I use non-traditional pattern weights. 😂) https://t.co/cgg1LlLlKX

    @diversionary It’s a very cool system. You plug in your measurements and it generates a custom pattern for you. @j__st is brilliant.

    Step 4 – curse goddamn directional prints. 🤬

    Step 5 – iron on interfacing. https://t.co/pLk1TgVX91

    Step 6 – sew cuffs together. https://t.co/p2BxDcRkP9

    Step 7 – sew collar. https://t.co/Fp1E9rTRt9

    Step 8 – sandwich collar between collar stands, baste, sew, and turn out. https://t.co/Frv9vFqax3

    Step 9 – sandwich back between yokes, sew, press, and edge stitch. I think I’ll stop there for the night! https://t.co/a9FgCM6a1P
