The CackalackyCon #CFP is still open and we're looking for unique and inspiring talks. We provide mentors for first time speakers. The best talk to submit is the one that you are excited to give!

Hey earlier achievers, we see you, start writing your #CFP now. We'll be opening it up soon. Tell your mentee, tell your friend that doesn't think they have anything to talk about, tell your coworker from that place where I put that thing that time

Tonight's time sq33k spent muted while explaining things during the staff meeting before she realized it: 64 seconds
Congratulations to s0lray who was the closest with his pre-meeting estimate of 75 seconds!

ALT A timer showing 1 minute and 4 seconds. The timer was started when the staff realized sq33k was muted while explaining things and stopped when she realized she was muted.
