00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:05,910
[Music]

2
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:18,699
[Applause]

3
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:23,400
My slides aren't being shown.

4
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,560
There we are. PyCon AU 2025 is held on

5
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,640
the lands of the Wandery Wberong people

6
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,000
of the Cooland nation. We pay our

7
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,559
respects to their elders past and

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,440
present.

9
00:00:34,559 --> 00:00:38,440
Welcome to PyCon AU.

10
00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:45,440
It's great to see so many people here in

11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,920
the room and uh also hello to everybody

12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,280
out there on the live stream. I I can't

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,680
see you, but it's good that you can see

14
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:55,199
me.

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:57,680
Um, please respect the mask zones. We

16
00:00:55,199 --> 00:00:59,520
have some dedicated mask seating area uh

17
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,840
to the front. There's sort of three

18
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:04,159
separate sections of it. If you would

19
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:06,000
feel more comfortable, if the people

20
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:08,640
near you are wearing masks, you're

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,320
encouraged to sit in that area. Um, and

22
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,280
if you are sitting in that area, you are

23
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:14,720
required to wear a mask. Um, hope this

24
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,040
helps everyone to feel safe and

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,759
comfortable.

26
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,520
Uh speaking of feeling safe and

27
00:01:19,759 --> 00:01:23,520
comfortable and being welcomed, we all

28
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,080
deserve to feel safe and comfortable and

29
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:29,040
welcome. Uh which is why we have a

30
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,560
safety team. Um

31
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,479
there's a safety phone number you can

32
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,320
call if you need to talk to them. Uh you

33
00:01:32,479 --> 00:01:38,799
can also identify them by their red

34
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:40,159
badges. So that number is 0431597233.

35
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:42,079
You don't need to write it down because

36
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:45,200
it is also printed directly on the back

37
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:49,759
of your badge at the bottom.

38
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:52,399
Um yeah so

39
00:01:49,759 --> 00:01:56,000
safety team is not just for big things

40
00:01:52,399 --> 00:01:57,600
it's also for little things. If you are

41
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,240
being made to feel unsafe, uncomfortable

42
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,000
or unwelcome or if you see anyone else

43
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,560
being made to feel unsafe, uncomfortable

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,399
or unwelcome. Uh if you don't want to

45
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,759
step in yourself, the safety team are

46
00:02:06,399 --> 00:02:09,840
very happy to do it for you and they are

47
00:02:07,759 --> 00:02:12,160
very happy to take your phone call for

48
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,520
big things and small. Hopefully no big

49
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,160
things happen and it's only small

50
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,400
things.

51
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,520
Um

52
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:24,480
so by way of orienting yourself um

53
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,920
here's a map of the area. This map also

54
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,920
printed on the back of your badge at the

55
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:31,520
top this time.

56
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:33,280
Um we are currently in the ballroom. Um

57
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,239
at the moment it's all join it's all

58
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,519
split into one big ballroom. Um during

59
00:02:36,239 --> 00:02:39,840
the breaks during morning tea and

60
00:02:37,519 --> 00:02:41,440
afternoon tea we split the room. We put

61
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,480
room dividers down. this becomes

62
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,239
ballroom one, ballroom 2, ballroom 3. If

63
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,760
you're watching on the live stream, uh

64
00:02:46,239 --> 00:02:51,920
whenever we're joined, it's going to be

65
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:53,760
streamed as ballroom 3. Um and also when

66
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:56,319
we split the rooms, that means the mask

67
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,640
zone is the front left section in every

68
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:00,640
smaller room.

69
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:03,840
Um outside of the ballrooms is the

70
00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:06,400
foyer. Um that's where everything

71
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,400
happens that is not a talk. Talks in the

72
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,800
ballroom, everything else in the foyer.

73
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,640
Uh that means go there for food. Go

74
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,599
there to chat with people. Go there to

75
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:20,080
chat in particular with our sponsors.

76
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:22,480
Um there's the coffee is out there. Um

77
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,440
bathrooms are out there. Uh if it's not

78
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:28,400
in here, it's out there.

79
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:31,360
Um going to talk a little bit about some

80
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:34,640
notes on the culture here. Uh we really

81
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,920
try to be a inclusive space and because

82
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:38,000
of that there's a few things we don't

83
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:41,519
do. Uh we don't trash talk other

84
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,959
communities. Um like we came to PyCon

85
00:03:41,519 --> 00:03:44,720
because we know Python's the best

86
00:03:42,959 --> 00:03:47,040
language, but that doesn't mean that

87
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:49,120
other languages aren't also good. Um

88
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,280
they're fine. And if people who have

89
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,799
spent entire careers in other languages

90
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,720
come to PyCon, we want them to feel

91
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:58,000
welcome, too. So don't start talking

92
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,280
about how you don't like

93
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,680
I'd name a language, but I'm not going

94
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,120
to pick on anyone.

95
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,680
You all know which one I mean, though,

96
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,280
right?

97
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,959
Um

98
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,159
yeah, we don't assume anyone's not a

99
00:04:08,959 --> 00:04:14,159
programmer. Um some people spend their

100
00:04:12,159 --> 00:04:15,760
entire careers being assumed they're not

101
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:18,400
the technical person in the room and

102
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,919
assumed incorrectly. Um we're a tech

103
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,240
conference like everyone here is

104
00:04:19,919 --> 00:04:24,400
involved in tech in some way. Uh whether

105
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:28,960
that's having just started programming

106
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:30,560
or decades of experience. Um

107
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,160
don't don't ask people why they came to

108
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,960
a tech conference. Assume it's for the

109
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,280
tech. Ask people what tech they work on.

110
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:40,800
Um, we don't make jokes at the expense

111
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:45,040
of others. Uh, don't punch down. Try not

112
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:48,000
to laugh at people. Um, you know, laugh

113
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:50,000
with not at. And for all of these three

114
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,800
things, like if if you see someone doing

115
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,479
this, like we all want this to be a

116
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,160
lovely event where everyone's having a

117
00:04:54,479 --> 00:04:59,840
good time. And but sometimes people slip

118
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,880
and the way to address that is right at

119
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:06,919
the top of this slide. Hey We don't do

120
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,919
that here. All right.

121
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,720
Um, there's an entire page on our

122
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,160
website about the culture. Um, we have

123
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,680
some in jokes. We're a conference that's

124
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:17,120
been running for a while. A lot of us

125
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,560
know each other and and and have, you

126
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,160
know, developed this shared

127
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,759
understanding of the world. Some of

128
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,639
those in jokes are explained on our

129
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:26,560
website. Um, if you find there's a joke

130
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:28,160
that keeps coming up that you had to ask

131
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,600
what it meant, you're welcome to send us

132
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,680
a pull request. Our website's up on

133
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,600
GitHub. uh hasn't happened yet this

134
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:36,080
year, but in previous years we do get

135
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,600
the occasional I I got this explained to

136
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,240
me, so here's a paragraph about it to

137
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:44,639
save the next person some time.

138
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:47,360
Um so yeah, pull request welcome.

139
00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:49,039
Uh today we are having all of the

140
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,759
bathrooms on this floor marked as

141
00:05:49,039 --> 00:05:53,520
genderneutral bathrooms. Uh that's one

142
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:56,400
of the preferences we have as a

143
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:58,000
conference. Um some people are more

144
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,840
comfortable with that, some people are

145
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,360
less comfortable with that. If you would

146
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:05,120
prefer a gendered bathroom, the

147
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:08,560
bathrooms uh downstairs in reception,

148
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:11,280
there is an accessible um an accessible

149
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,280
gender neutral bathroom as well as

150
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:15,280
gendered uh male and female male

151
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:18,960
bathrooms. You can go down there if you

152
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:21,440
don't want to go up here.

153
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,360
Uh the bathrooms on this floor, we have

154
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:26,319
added some bathroom baskets to with

155
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:29,759
basic supplies. Um, if you need pads,

156
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:31,680
tampons, tissues, deodorant, toothbrush,

157
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:35,199
um, I can't remember exactly what's in

158
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:36,960
them, things of that nature, um, take

159
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:38,880
some, take what you need, leave some for

160
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,759
others. Um, if the baskets are getting

161
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,800
empty, let a volunteer know and we'll,

162
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:45,800
uh, do what we can to get them

163
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,800
restocked.

164
00:06:46,479 --> 00:06:50,479
Uh, here is the conference Wi-Fi. I'm

165
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,919
just going to sort of, you know, how

166
00:06:50,479 --> 00:06:53,280
Wi-Fi works. So, I'm just going to talk

167
00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:55,680
for a while so you have a little bit of

168
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:57,440
time to scan the QR code. Uh, we also

169
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,720
have this QR code printed on bits of

170
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,000
paper spread around the foyer. Um, I

171
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,400
still see people pointing their phones

172
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,400
at it, so I have to talk for longer. I

173
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,800
think there's a QR code at the retro

174
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,240
desk. Uh, okay. I don't think anyone

175
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,919
else Oh, no. There's still people trying

176
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,000
to take things. I have to keep talking.

177
00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:17,120
All right, we're good. Um, there's the

178
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:20,319
Wi-Fi details if you need them.

179
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:22,400
Uh, we have a Discord. Um there's a link

180
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:25,360
in your attendee email to your ticket

181
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:27,919
page on uh pretix. Uh that ticket page

182
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,720
lets you join the discord. Uh you don't

183
00:07:27,919 --> 00:07:32,800
have to join the discord. Um you are

184
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,240
encouraged to join the discord. It's a

185
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,560
great place to chat with the other

186
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:40,000
people at the conference. Uh especially

187
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:43,680
to try and organize little events, you

188
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:46,479
know, let's go out for food. Um things

189
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,800
of that nature. Uh also to talk about,

190
00:07:46,479 --> 00:07:50,720
wow, this talk was amazing. how good is

191
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,680
things in

192
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:56,879
uh the conference opening.

193
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,639
Um but that said, if you don't like

194
00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:00,240
Discord, you don't have to use it.

195
00:07:58,639 --> 00:08:01,759
Everything you can do on Discord, you

196
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:06,160
can also do using the whiteboards we

197
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:08,160
have about the place. Um

198
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,960
we have stickers about the place that

199
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:13,360
you can stick on your badge to um show

200
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,280
your preferences and identities and

201
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,840
various other things. Uh we have

202
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,919
communication stickers in um green,

203
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,759
yellow, and red. Bit of a traffic light

204
00:08:19,919 --> 00:08:23,199
system. If you're like, "Hey, I'm happy

205
00:08:21,759 --> 00:08:26,240
for people to talk to me." Put a green

206
00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:28,080
sticker on. Uh if you're like,

207
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,919
you know, ask me first. I might not be

208
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,520
ready, yellow sticker. And if you're

209
00:08:29,919 --> 00:08:32,719
like, it's the end of the day and you're

210
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,719
crashing and you don't want to talk to

211
00:08:32,719 --> 00:08:36,320
anyone, red sticker time. Uh the

212
00:08:34,719 --> 00:08:38,000
stickers are reusable. You can peel them

213
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,159
off and put new ones on, change them

214
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,399
over the course of the day. Um, it's

215
00:08:40,159 --> 00:08:45,040
pretty common to be like hyped up in the

216
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:48,480
morning and ready to crash at the end.

217
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,160
You know, do what works for you. Um,

218
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,080
in general, people are happy to talk,

219
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:55,720
but the stickers give you a way to give

220
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,720
an explicit signal.

221
00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:02,880
Um, the Pac-Man rule, um, we like to

222
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,360
encourage everyone to

223
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,279
be open and welcoming of people,

224
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,959
especially newcomers and people they

225
00:09:07,279 --> 00:09:11,519
haven't met before. And the Pac-Man rule

226
00:09:08,959 --> 00:09:13,120
is a way to do that. Uh this means that

227
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:15,440
when you're forming a group of people,

228
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,680
leave leave a gap. That's Pac-Man's

229
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:20,880
mouth. And the reason you're leaving

230
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:22,399
that gap is so that there's a space for

231
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,880
someone to join. They can walk directly

232
00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:27,040
into Pac-Man's mouth. And they don't get

233
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,800
eaten by Pac-Man. They become part of

234
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,800
Pac-Man because then you move and leave

235
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,959
a new gap so more people can join you.

236
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,640
Because that's the whole idea is be

237
00:09:32,959 --> 00:09:38,160
welcoming. Make space for people to join

238
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:41,200
in. Always be welcoming.

239
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:45,440
Uh that's not the only rule. We also

240
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:48,000
encourage the snowball rule. And every

241
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:52,080
day meet as many new people as the

242
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:54,880
number of pyons AU you've been to. So if

243
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:57,680
you've been here for the first time,

244
00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:00,000
congratulations. You met some at Rejok.

245
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:02,720
Um you're done, right? If if if you've

246
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,640
if you've had enough meeting new people,

247
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,800
that's okay.

248
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:09,040
If you've been coming to Python's AU for

249
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:12,000
10 years, like try to meet 10 new

250
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:15,120
people. Um, we want to encourage the

251
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:17,440
people who've been here a lot,

252
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,160
tend to know each other because we've

253
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,839
seen each other at the past BCON AU.

254
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,120
Don't only talk to the people you know.

255
00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:24,480
Make sure you're going out and making

256
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,120
the effort to meet new people as well

257
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,959
because that is uh what encourages new

258
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:33,160
people to become the people who have

259
00:10:28,959 --> 00:10:33,160
been 10 here for 10 years.

260
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,440
All right. Uh, birds of a feather

261
00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:39,440
sessions.

262
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:42,480
Uh, you've maybe heard the phrase birds

263
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:45,120
of a feather flock together. Um, if you

264
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,720
are looking for people like you and you

265
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,640
want to meet up with them, you can

266
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:52,079
organize a birds of a feather session.

267
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:54,000
Um, for example, you might want to do a

268
00:10:52,079 --> 00:10:55,920
LGBTQ

269
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,760
uh meetup. You might want to do a people

270
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,680
from Brisbane meetup. You might want to

271
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:04,079
do a fans of Rust meetup. Um there's a

272
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:05,839
board at Retro where you can uh write

273
00:11:04,079 --> 00:11:07,519
birds of feather sessions on. There's a

274
00:11:05,839 --> 00:11:10,640
channel in the Discord. We would

275
00:11:07,519 --> 00:11:13,920
encourage you to post in both um both on

276
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:15,440
the whiteboard and in the Discord. We

277
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,040
not everyone's on the Discord is the

278
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,120
main reason for that. But also not

279
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,399
everyone's here in person. That's why

280
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:24,240
both places are good. So um pick a time,

281
00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:27,519
pick a place, write it on the

282
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:30,399
whiteboard. You know 1 p.m. at Rejo.

283
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:32,720
meet up here if you are

284
00:11:30,399 --> 00:11:34,959
traveled from Adelaide

285
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:38,600
for example doesn't have to be Adelaide

286
00:11:34,959 --> 00:11:38,600
you can travel from anywhere

287
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:44,399
uh the other side of the birds of a uh

288
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:46,800
featherboard is the job board uh if you

289
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:48,880
are looking to get hired and especially

290
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,480
if you are currently hiring that is a

291
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,480
place where you can write down your

292
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:55,040
details of uh what you're looking for

293
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,240
and how people can contact you uh there

294
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,560
is also a channel for this in the

295
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:02,079
discord Again, not everyone's on the

296
00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:04,000
Discord, so use both. Um,

297
00:12:02,079 --> 00:12:05,680
yeah, I think Oh, and this year we also

298
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,040
have stickers for I'm hiring and I'm

299
00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:08,320
looking to hire. Uh, you can put them

300
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,880
on. I don't think I made a slide for

301
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:14,040
those stickers. Use them. Put them on

302
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,040
your badge.

303
00:12:14,399 --> 00:12:20,160
Uh, lost and found. If you have lost

304
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:22,800
something, uh, ask at the rejo desk cuz

305
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,720
that's where we will put things. If you

306
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,480
find something, take it to the Rejo desk

307
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,760
or hand it to any volunteer and they'll

308
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:32,320
take it to the Rejo desk for you. Um,

309
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:34,160
this can be little things like Mikey's.

310
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,480
This can be big things like phones. Both

311
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:41,000
of those already happened yesterday. So,

312
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:41,000
uh, lost foundes

313
00:12:44,079 --> 00:12:49,279
why. Oh, my slides have stopped

314
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,880
responding. That's awkward. Now I have

315
00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:52,720
to try and remember everything else that

316
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:56,519
was going on.

317
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,519
in this slide deck.

318
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:04,920
Could I have a time check, please? How

319
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,920
much time do I have to talk for?

320
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:11,760
Six minutes. Thank you very much. All

321
00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:14,639
right. After Lost and Found, I would

322
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:16,800
like to talk about sprints. Uh sprints

323
00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:18,399
are happening on Monday and Tuesday. If

324
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,680
you've signed up for sprints, they're a

325
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:23,920
chance to uh contribute to open source

326
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:26,480
projects. Uh they're a chance to work on

327
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:30,720
your projects in a room full of people

328
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:32,720
who are developers just like you. Um if

329
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,399
you run an open source project and have

330
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:37,279
something to work on, the sprints are a

331
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:39,360
great place to sit down and work on it.

332
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:41,519
If you're interested in contributing to

333
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,839
open source projects, uh, then the

334
00:13:41,519 --> 00:13:46,480
sprints are a great place to find

335
00:13:43,839 --> 00:13:47,839
someone who runs one who can introduce

336
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:51,480
you to GitHub and talk you through

337
00:13:47,839 --> 00:13:51,480
making a pull request.

338
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,240
Um,

339
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,399
t-shirts.

340
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:59,440
T-shirts, thank you. That is a good one.

341
00:13:56,399 --> 00:14:01,120
Uh, t-shirts can be picked up starting

342
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:04,160
from lunchtime. If you didn't pick up

343
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:06,959
your t-shirt yesterday, um, head to the

344
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:10,560
retro desk from lunchtime. You will need

345
00:14:06,959 --> 00:14:12,240
the uh QR code, not the QR code on your

346
00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:14,560
badge, it's the QR code in your email.

347
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,199
They're different QR codes. Uh the QR

348
00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:21,880
codes on your badge are for showing to

349
00:14:17,199 --> 00:14:21,880
our sponsors. Um

350
00:14:23,199 --> 00:14:26,320
Oh, wow.

Thank you. I've been given a copy of my

352
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:31,440
slides. That's very convenient.

353
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:34,480
All right,

00:14:41,519 --> 00:14:46,160
logos look like. Conveniently, there is

359
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,760
one behind me, which means uh, could I

workshop ticket and went, "Oh, free

workshop. That sounds good." And have

380
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,800

384
00:15:48,959 --> 00:15:52,000
cancel your workshops ticket and then

385
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,240

00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:57,199
else to attend. Uh, the workshop we have

387
00:15:54,240 --> 00:16:01,519
is being run by AWS. Uh it looked

388
00:15:57,199 --> 00:16:04,959
fascinating. Uh details on the website.

389
00:16:01,519 --> 00:16:07,920
Um all right

390
00:16:04,959 --> 00:16:11,519
speakers uh for anybody who is speaking

391
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,839
today, please be in your room during the

392
00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:15,920
break before your talk. Not the break

393
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:18,160
between talks but during the meal break.

394
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,920
So if you are talking just before

395
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,880
afternoon tea, you should come to your

396
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,639
room uh during lunch break and you

397
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:28,399
should stay in your room until you have

398
00:16:24,639 --> 00:16:30,480
had your talk. So don't uh

399
00:16:28,399 --> 00:16:33,120
if you don't, we get very upset and

400
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:35,440
antsy and worried and we try to find you

401
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,720
very hard and sometimes we threaten to

402
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,959
cancel your talk and there will be

403
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,240
emails and you will not like them. We

404
00:16:38,959 --> 00:16:42,160
won't like sending them, you won't like

405
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:45,360
receiving them. Please go to your room

406
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:47,600
in the meal break before your talk.

407
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:50,759
Uh

408
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,759
all right

409
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:57,279
which means

410
00:16:54,800 --> 00:17:00,160
thank you Chris. Lightning talks uh

411
00:16:57,279 --> 00:17:02,639
lightning talks signup sheet is via a

412
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,880
online form this year. We have QR codes

413
00:17:02,639 --> 00:17:06,480
which is displayed on a phone just over

414
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,720
there.

415
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,480
Imagine a QR code. We've also printed

416
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:13,039
out a few copies of it and spread them

417
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,600
around the foyer. You'll find one and uh

418
00:17:13,039 --> 00:17:16,959
sign it up. Um, if you would like to

419
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:20,520
give a lightning talk, that's the that's

420
00:17:16,959 --> 00:17:20,520
the way to do it.

421
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:28,079
All right. I think

422
00:17:26,959 --> 00:17:29,679
both days.

423
00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:31,120
Lightning talks are both days. We have

424
00:17:29,679 --> 00:17:33,440
lightning talk Saturday, lightning talk

425
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:35,760
Sunday. If you

426
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,039
saw a lightning talk today that you're

427
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,960
like, "Wow, that was a great lightning

428
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:40,559
talk, but I have more to say on that

429
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,840
topic." Propose a lightning talk for

430
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:44,559
Sunday. We'd love to see lightning

431
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:47,600
talks. Responding to lightning talks. I

432
00:17:44,559 --> 00:17:51,200
am a serial offender. Um because

433
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:53,360
lightning talks are just so much fun.

434
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,120
All right,

435
00:17:53,360 --> 00:17:56,559
if I remember correctly, I have now

436
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:58,320
spoken about everything I need to talk

437
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:01,120
about without the benefit of most of my

438
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:04,240
slides, which means it is time to hand

439
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:06,799
over to our lovely keynote speaker. Uh

440
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:10,080

systems. Uh welcome.
