Description
Hey folks,
sorry for the random round about but I noticed we are often lacking talks and I know I have a bunch of talks that I haven't given the Elixir UG before. I didn't want to "spam" the submissions by opening 5 issues or so, also I'm not sure what scope the elixir UG is looking for as a lot of my talks these days are more focussed on communication/leadership/weird ideas.
You can find my talks/more detail here: https://www.pragtob.info/talks (some with video and slides) but in short the talks I've been thinking might be worth giving:
- Going Staff - it's a talk about what it entails to be a Staff engineer, how do you become one etc. (giving it for the first time next week at RUG::B)
- Benchee - I talked about it a bit in the past, but I'm sure I can put new spins and perspectives on it. Like, walking through benchmark or even design decisions in Benchee, a code deep dive, whatever
- Stories in Open Source - A story about my life in Open source and how to contribute to OSS
- Functioning Among Humans - a social/communication skills talk that is close and dear to my heart
I can give any of these on relatively short notice (I mean Benchee I'd still need to prepare some stuff unless you want me to redo a version I done before).
(I also have ideas for new elixir related talks, but I'll put those into separate proposals when I have them. This was intended as a catch-all kinda deal to see what's wanted at all and be like "I could jump in, probably")
Go, have a bunny:
Favourite Month you would like to present in
None
Amazing and +1 to all! let's schedule them one by on based on your availability.
@slashmili gladly! I hope to be available all of the coming months :D If March could work that'd be great, as it might help my job search :joy:
@PragTob the talks in March are already booked as we have cross event with Clojure and BOBKONF people.
I hope you can make it on April? BTW we'll skip May(or have some small gathering outside)
@slashmili I know about May. April would be fun since we're cross overing but I can't give Going Staff then (as I already did) :joy: I'm contemplating an Elixir vs. Ruby talk but framing is challenging so the Ruby folks won't chase me out of town :joy:
Closed this as it is already a year old. Please don't hesitate to reopen/create a new issue if you like to hold a talk
