nhainesianorlinqt: Just the wiki.01:11
nhandlerWell, 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 see01:21
nhainesnhandler: good luck!01:25
nhandlernhaines: 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 event01:26
nhainesHaha01:30
nhainesIt's going to be fantastic.  It always is in the first place, but it's going to continue to improve.01:30
nhainesI'm going to be on an Ubuntu Leadership panel at UbuCon on Friday, prepresenting the LoCo Council.01:31
nhainesI definitely didn't imagine myself sitting along Mark Shuttleworth on a panel 8 years ago when I started Ubuntu advocacy.  Or last year, really.  :P01:32
nhandlernhaines: You definitely deserve to be up there :)01:38
nhainesnhandler: Aww, thanks. :)01:38
nhainesI'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
akkSomebody, Sarah Mei I think, gave a talk on public speaking at She's Geeky a couple years back where she talked about the big lie01:49
akkwhere you're pretending that you're confident and know you belong there01:49
akkand 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
nhainesYup, been saying that for years.02:04
