Betcha can’t eat just one.

Talks I’m planning on attending at Open Source Bridge:

Open Source on the Farm – to see where I can help out.

Work for the Government for Fun and Profit – I used to work for the feds & it was definitely fun. Plus, I want to hear what Ms Bryant’s been up to lately.

Drop ACID and think about data – to expand my horizons.

Ask Forgiveness not Permission – Uhm, just in case I need to do this. :cough:

CodeIgniter As Drinking Game – I don’t think I need to state why I’m going to this one. (Seriously though, @christiekoehler gave a talk on this recently, and I am interested in CodeIgnitor.)

Assholes are killing your project – this is actually happening in one of my non-F/LOSS projects. I need some tools to cope, and to help me make a decision.

Faking It Til I Make It: A Woman On The Fringe Of Open Source – I want to hear what @ubergeeke has to say about this.

Open Source Development – The Dark Side – this looks like it’ll be funny. It’s good to be able to laugh at yourself.

Remember Tcl/ Tk? Grandpa might be old, but he can still kick your ass! – I still use Expect, built on Tcl/Tk. It rocks.

Others I recommend:
Is the Web Down? – This will be informative *and* entertaining, guaranteed.

Advanced Git tutorial: Not your average VCS. – I’ve seen this already & it’s awesome. This is what really built a fire under me & got me using git.

Unit Test Your Database! – I just started tinkering with PgTAP; looks like an excellent tool.

  1. Good to hear you’re excited about my assholes talk! Anything in particular you’d like to hear about? Tell me more about your problem — in private, if that helps.

    Thanks!

  2. It’s a bit too late at this point, unfortunately. :( I’ll catch up with you at the conference!

  3. [...] was really hard choosing which talks to attend. The results of the coin [...]
