[05:35] <ColonelPanic001> fwiw, I went to "Ninjas, Brogrammers and Sparkly Code Princesses"
[05:35] <ColonelPanic001> if anyone was curious
[05:36] <ColonelPanic001> I mean, about the panel, not whether or not I went.
[11:45] <rick_h_> ColonelPanic001: any good?

[14:07] <tony-smlr> We are also on #smlr
[14:56] <jrwren> ColonelPanic001: summarize in 1 sentence plz :)
[16:09] <ColonelPanic001> it was okay
