  • a great mix of software, psychology, and philosophy - especially engaging presentation and delivery
  • YouTube
• Al Sweigert
  • fun to see Al in person and get to meet him
  • YouTube
• Joshua Cannon on build engineering
  • interesting topic, well put together slides, and delivery that was both engaging and entertaining
  • YouTube
• Chris May on refactoring
  • his suggestion to comment out existing code instead of deleting when updating saves me on a regular basis
  • YouTube
• Everyone was talking about Ruff
• Spending time at the incredible Austin Central Library
