I had a lot of technical difficulties doing my talk at #cposc yesterday. The main problem was that Keynote put the presenter notes on the projector and the slideshow on my laptop. Getting the swapped was tricky. I couldn’t read the screen from the podium, and I couldn’t find the command that Keynote used to have to swap displays. Even after I got that worked out, it was still difficult doing my talk because the presenter display seemed too small, and of course I still couldn’t see the screen. 1/
I drove past this on my way home from #cposc yesterday. I feel like our friends in Lancaster have been holding out on us! https://locations.primantibros.com/pa/lancaster/38022/
I came, I saw, I spoke! But now it's time for me to hop on a train. Farewell #cposc pals!
I talked about #OpenSource on the #mainframe again. It's good to be back to seeing people in person 😁 #cposc
Someday soon ChatGPT will also write and present all the talks, and the attendees will be able to spend the entire conference drinking coffee at the hallway track. #cposc
Just hallway tracked a conversation went from Linux distribution packaging seamlessly into amateur radio. I really missed these little regional open source events, it's so wonderful to be here 🥰 #cposc
One thing I've learned today is that a lot of the speakers at this year's #cposc have written some portion of their abstract and/or bio and/or slides using ChatGPT. Am I a Luddite for doing all that the old fashioned way like an animal?
Loving Dakine Bledsoe's talk on coding for kids at #CPOSC. I haven't looked at code.org in a while and it really has evolved! Scratch has also come a long way 🐱💻
It's time for me to look again, my eldest just turned 4!
"In space, no one can see your screen." — joke missed by the satellite guys speaking at #cposc right now.
I'm in Lancaster, PA today where I'm speaking at #CPOSC 2023. It's so great to be hanging out with a bunch of other computer nerds in person again!
Getting ready for my #mastodon and the #fediverse talk at #cposc in a little while.
I had such an excellent, walk-heavy plan for this morning, but I forgot about rain 😂
Got a tad bit damp on my walk to 30th street station, but I maaaay have to get a cab once I get to Lancaster #cposc #CaliforniaGirl
Oh HEY, I'm in Philly this week and the Central Pennsylvania Open Source Conference is on Saturday 🤔 #CPOSC
I'm going! Also tossed in a proposal for a lightning talk. #OpenSource #Conference
Fun fact: This was the first conference I ever spoke at, all the way back in 2009.

A conference that I've always enjoyed going to in Central #PA is going virtual this Saturday. Take a look, there are a a lot of good talks. http://cposc.org/ #CPOSC
Looking forward to #cposc tomorrow morning. cposc.org (Central Pennsylvania open source conference)
