PSA to conference attendees: One of the biggest things you can do for a talk you really liked is to come say that personally to the speaker. Also, leave feedback in the official app if there is one. It helps both speakers and organizers. Rating a talk highly will lead to more people seeing it.

Great seeing @hilton.org.uk again after @devoxx.uk 2024! His topic about zero-bug policy success was grear. I always like experiential stories and it gave some great insights. Plus, I've learned about the Joel tests which I didn't know about before. 💡💡 #DevoxxUK #conference #development

We should all stop using both formal and informal pronouns, in languages that still have them, and instead require formal pronouns for all situations where a computer system (software, AI, etc.) ‘talks’ to a human #AI
