Hey #DevUp attendees, ever found yourself writing too much code and ending up looping b/c your data doesn’t reflect your algorithms? Join me in room D1 at 3:15pm CT for Data Structures in TypeScript and we'll back to some fundamentals on getting the most out of your data structures. See you there!

In about an hour, I'll be presenting my talk Algorithm Design for Web Developers in room D2 here at #DevUp. Join me and we'll go back to basics on algorithms: classifying them, assessing them, and why that matters. See you there!

If you're at Gen Con, please say hi if you spot me. I should be dressed something like this to make me easier to find.
