nhaines | ianorlinqt: Just the wiki. | 01:11 |
nhandler | Well, I just found out that Yelp is sponsoring the event and that we have someone speaking. Not getting my hopes up, but I submitted my name as someone interested in attending. So we'll see | 01:21 |
nhaines | nhandler: good luck! | 01:25 |
nhandler | nhaines: Thanks. It probably doesn't help that I am in talks with my manager right now about getting the company to let me attend two other events, but we shall see. From everything I have been seeing, it should be a great event | 01:26 |
nhaines | Haha | 01:30 |
nhaines | It's going to be fantastic. It always is in the first place, but it's going to continue to improve. | 01:30 |
nhaines | I'm going to be on an Ubuntu Leadership panel at UbuCon on Friday, prepresenting the LoCo Council. | 01:31 |
nhaines | I definitely didn't imagine myself sitting along Mark Shuttleworth on a panel 8 years ago when I started Ubuntu advocacy. Or last year, really. :P | 01:32 |
nhandler | nhaines: You definitely deserve to be up there :) | 01:38 |
nhaines | nhandler: Aww, thanks. :) | 01:38 |
nhaines | I'm going to pretend I do, anyway. Because as these things go, you can only feign experience and legitimacy so long before you have it! | 01:39 |
akk | Somebody, Sarah Mei I think, gave a talk on public speaking at She's Geeky a couple years back where she talked about the big lie | 01:49 |
akk | where you're pretending that you're confident and know you belong there | 01:49 |
akk | and it's all a big lie, and maybe some of the audience even knows it's a lie, but that's okay, as long as you pretend, it'll be a good talk. | 01:49 |
akk | (She said it better, I wish I remembered quite how.) | 01:49 |
nhaines | Yup, been saying that for years. | 02:04 |
pleia2 | nhaines: the event, ubucon? | 02:48 |
pleia2 | err nhandler | 02:48 |
pleia2 | darnit | 02:48 |
pleia2 | one of you is going to have to move | 02:48 |
pleia2 | I kid, I kid <3 | 02:48 |
akk | One of them really should change his name. :) | 02:57 |
