@jasonbell morning Jase.... how's things?
My typing skills get worse as I get older!
Good thanks @agile_geek unless someone has told you something and I should be worried? Is my good leg going to drop off? Thatโs the last thing I need ๐
@jasonbell you really think I know more than I do! Just being friendly...I know.. you should be suspicious right?
I'm fine thanks. The wilds of Northumberland haven't killed me yet...nor the pollution of London!
Not sure if I'm going yet
morning!
Morning
Does anyone know what the price of the ClojureX tickets goes up to after today? Is it full price or a gradual/staggered price increase ?
@agile_geek I'm fairly sure you're not.
@yogidevbear I don't know but I think it's a gradual price increase
@jasonbell right, fair enough...I know when I'm not wanted!
Well, if my boss drags his feet, I might be finding out the hard way tomorrow ๐
@yogidevbear the ClojureX conference price goes up another ยฃ100 + VAT at the end of the day
Perfect. Thanks for letting me know ๐
It will continue to jump up until it's nearly 600 + vat over the next 6 months
We have invited Malcolm Sparks to be a speaker this year and we will be having project updates from James Reeves as well as the author of Klipse
Do you guys do a "Here's some literature to convince your boss to send staff" pdf type thing? ๐
I am right now going to hand over 150 USD to a Russian on Freelancer to create a LaTeX template so I can generate convincing PDFs from Org-mode
The hardest thing about Clojure right now is convincing @agile_geek that I'm not called Jade.
@yogidevbear sorry, no, but it's a great idea. Maybe before the next price increase
@jasonbell waz up Jade!
@yogidevbear You could always suggest to one of the organisers that you would be a good speaker to have.
I'm trying to figure out who's trolling... Jade or Chris
Ha, I'd love to convince them, but I doubt I'd bring enough value... yet
That's what everyone thinks... but if you are working with Clojure then you have something to share
What sort of talks would you be looking for?
I plan to do a new speaker workshop when we open the ClojureX CfP process..
There will be suggested topics on the CfP form... we love experience reports too... but essentially anything Clojurey is of interest
That includes Clojurescripty too...
I am happy to review any talk ideas at any time until we have a full schedule. Feel free to send me a direct message if you want to discuss
@jasonbell I thought you suffer from the opposite... getting convinced to do talks at conferences?
I just got approval from my boss ๐
It would be nice to see many more women speaking this year. 50% would be a dream and a successful result on its own.
@yogidevbear It was @agile_geek autocorrect changing Jase to Jade. It kinda stuck.... only in his head though.
Oh and in @otfrom's I think you'll find
@thomas I love doing talks, Iโm a proper pain in the backside ๐ Iโve been asked to do panels before as I never tow the line, speaks me mind and all that
@jasonbell if thats the case then I'd expect you to give an awesome talks at this years ClojureX, if you are conductive to that idea
What I want to do is "Onyx with 30,000 Nodes" but as it stands I'm a few nodes short ๐
@reborg if there are 15 people that will each encourage and support a woman to speak at ClojureX, I think we have a chance (so long as its not 15 people for the same woman).
@jasonbell so I'll discuss your "Onyx with approximately 29,998 Nodes" with the other organisers then ๐
@jr0cket assuming they need that support, yes and count me in (I can suggest a few names)
@reborg yes please. Feel free to suggest anyone we can reach out to (you can use a slack dm or twitter dm @jr0cket) if you prefer
here is a sneak peak at ClojureX 2017 http://jr0cket.co.uk/2017/02/clojureX-2017-sneak-peak.html
Yay!! ClojureX ticket booked and paid for! Woot woot
