When employees are only to incentivised on showing impact and no one is rewarded for spotting/avoiding downsides, it causes huge problems in the Extract phase… (though for most companies hopefully not “destroying democracy”). #yowperth @KentBeck
Always exciting to hear from @mjpt777 – “that high speed trading guy from London” (among many other things)! #yowperth https://t.co/XAF6JA7KSH
I love how @mjpt777’s mind works. It’s a talk ostensibly about code but he’s already talked about coffee, black holes, Charles Darwin, Louis the XIV, courtesy, communities… #yowperth
@FakeSamRitchie @mjpt777 Awww, bless.
@mjpt777 Now covered rules of engagement in warfare; moving on to Gulliver’s Travels… #yowperth
I love how as @mjpt777 talks about a clever solution to a multicast protocol problem, he finds a way to point out that Sally Floyd’s first degree was in sociology, and that folks with different backgrounds find novel solutions to problems. #yowperth https://t.co/HLwtY8hc7S

Great intro from Ulli for @LareneLg, all the way from Brisbane to Perth for the first time ever! She’s going to be talking about Full Stack Accessibility. #yowperth #a11y https://t.co/mS5O6lmMk0
Can confirm it’s fun! I managed to snag a Redskin. https://t.co/CjARrUT7mJ
@LareneLg referring to the early days of the web, when everything was tables of Times New Roman text on textured backgrounds, and how things were actually more accessible back then… #1996forever #yowperth
@mootpointer @Azure (10X dragon)
Most folks are familiar with the legal risk around not being accessible. Sydney Olympics, Coles are local examples that ended in lawsuits. Retrofitting is 10x expensive, so build #a11y in from the get-go! #yowperth @LareneLg https://t.co/ZY4Ddo5Pxq
One thing I really liked from @LareneLg’s #a11y talk is that she described all of the photos she used in her slides. Easy thing to do – basically verbal alt tags for those listening to talk! #YOWPerth https://t.co/rj7vqA77RP

@i386 @carlfish Shit take or not, I miss Reader every single day.
@i386 @carlfish It wasn’t so much the functionality – there are loads of decent news readers – but it had a community built up. I used to share and comment with some very smart folks, the ones who were influencers before that term meant Instagrammers paid to hawk shit.
@i386 @carlfish And when it died, the community fragmented. And now all the content lives in walled gardens, and the only comments are outrage and echo chambers, and I despair.
@i386 @carlfish Plus it’s always fun to hate on Google for shitcanning useful stuff that could probably run on a PC under some dude’s desk.
