When you want to do a final dry run of your talk but there is nothing in the hotel room of your height

This image shows a creative DIY standing desk setup using two round black metal tables stacked on top of each other. A open laptop displaying a presentation titled “Plan for Unplanned Work” is placed on the upper table, which rests securely on the legs of the bottom table. The bottom table is directly on a wooden floor next to a grey-upholstered bed. There is a TV remote on the lower table surface. The background features patterned wallpaper with stylized leaves and a white wall shelf containing a green magazine. Curtains hang to the left, partially covering the wall shelf. The scene suggests a makeshift work environment, likely in a hotel or temporary accommodation, adapted for ergonomic laptop use

Mid way through my talk at @wearedevelopers.bsky.social World Congress, I noticed they had this banner by the room entrance and it just felt like a warm hug while delivering my talk. Great job to the team that thought of this, y’all awesome

Daniel Afonso @danieljcafonso.bsky.social · Jul 10

Good morning @wearedevelopers.bsky.social World Congress from PagerDuty booth. Today I will have two talks:

1. Starting in 10 min at our booth A_03 about Effective Incident Response
2. At 4:50PM at Stage 9 I will talk about the state of JavaScript testing in 2025

Come say hi 👋

New experience unlocked. Someone mistook my carry on bag for theirs and made me sprint around the airport trying to find them. I would like to thank the person who invented airtags 🙏

Daniel Afonso @danieljcafonso.bsky.social · Jul 9

Doing the devrel thing again.
See you in a bit Berlin and @wearedevelopers.bsky.social

A person sits at an airport terminal with their legs stretched out, facing a large window overlooking the runway. In the foreground, an open laptop displays a presentation slide that reads “Hello WeAreDevelopers World Congress 👋” on a green background. A black suitcase stands upright next to the person, and an airplane is visible outside on the tarmac through the window’s horizontal blinds. The scene suggests the person is preparing for or traveling to a tech conference.
