    This is hilarious. Reminds me of all the old text-based PC games I played back when I had free time, before working in production.

  6. An interesting study on humour in scientific talks (531 presentations, 870 jokes):

    67% of jokes failed.
    Only ~9% got real laughter.

    Men joke slightly more, and native English speakers are more likely to succeed.

    O yes... Joking in a foreign language is hard, and even in your own, it only works if the audience truly gets it.

  9. Having a discussion with friends who travel for work. Do you pack a swimsuit im case your accommodations have a pool or hot tub?

    I always do. Don’t use them most of the time, but keep them in case.

    Curious….

  13. I am reminded of the importance of welcoming new participants to the scholarly community instead of seeking to show off one’s broader reading or years on task.

    To ask a question and then shut down the answer:

    DO NOT DO THIS!

    This is why I don’t like coming to national meetings. Such unkindness and posturing

  14. What an INCREDIBLE #BSidesChicago2024 #BSidesChicago

    I'm still buzzing from all the amazing energy and community spirit we saw yesterday!!

    The talks were phenomenal - from first-time speakers bringing fresh perspectives to industry veterans dropping knowledge bombs. Our Career Village was packed with meaningful conversations and real opportunities (those resume reviews were 🔥).

    And that @LockEx team? Absolute legends! They kept the picks clicking and the knowledge flowing all day long!

    Don't even get me started on the Great Flamingo Hunt! Watching everyone - from seasoned hackers to newcomers - getting excited about finding flamingos (and hunting down our volunteers who might be hiding them 😂) brought such joy to the event.

    None of this would have been possible without our AMAZING volunteer team. They poured their hearts into making this conference special, and it showed in every detail.

    To everyone who attended, spoke, volunteered, or supported #BSidesCHI in any way - THANK YOU! You've helped create something truly special in the Chicago infosec community.

    (And yes, those robot flamingos are probably already planning next year's con...)

  15. AQUA2024 and an article in The Conversation

    The Australasian Quaternary Research Association meets this week on Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island). This is possibly the most friendly conference series and group of people that I have had the pleasure of attending. At AQUA2024 I am fortunate to be involved with three presentations at the conference, presented by Pauline Treble, @michcampbell and myself....

  16. 'those' kind of conferences that you may be asked to speak at *randomly* 🤔, are likely to be the kind of conferences generally not worth being involved with. Must start generating a ridiculous rate card to start replying to such with. You know something like.... Great news, for bookings this month only, I have a 25% discount available at the absolute steal of €99,999 plus flights, accommodation, work in lieu payment, subsistence.... yada, yada... #conference #conferenceLife #speaker

  17. The WordPress Community team is looking at the question of whether WordCamps could have a sponsored track / demo room.

    I'm really on the fence about it. Organizing a conference while keeping tickets really cheap is hard without sponsor $$. But do we want the camps during into sales pitches?

    Provide your feedback to the team here:

  18. Now quietly sneaking out of the plenary to be first in line for coffee. #iclc16 #conferencelife

  19. I feel really good about how my talk, Accessibility Testing 101, went today at CincyDeliver 2023. I need to work a little more on the timing of the talk, but I had great questions and the attendees seemed to be paying great attention. So, I think that means they liked it. #PublicSpeaking #ConferenceLife #Conferences2023 #CincyDeliver

  20. Today, my job was to scream as loudly as possible through convention center hallways, “FLU IS UPSTAIRS! MENOPAUSE AND HEPATITIS TO YOUR RIGHT! SCOLIOSIS IS FULL!”

    I was paid to do this.

  21. Pro tip: never try to launch a new conference and new conference management software at the same time.

  22. The badges for are pretty cool. (No, I haven’t tried playing it yet. That’s a job for tonight)
