If you're enjoying the #cjs19 live stream, you can thank @heroku! They are making it possible for us to share the conference with our *entire* community. They are also put together a killer list of resources for getting started building JS apps! 2019.cascadiajs.com/getting-…

Yes. Yes I do. Sept 27, 2012. My very first external technical presentation was at a @vanjs meetup, which turned out to be in front sizeable crowd in a theater (I remember 100s of people, it felt like1000s. @apike and @jasonsanjose were there and may recall).
Do you have any scary/funny public speaking stories you'd like to share w/ students getting started with giving tech talks? 😱👻🙈 I'd love to include them in a public speaking course I'm creating! Would love to show examples of tech demos gone haywire, strange audience Qs, etc.
