Issue #258 - 2016-07-04 - Where are the YAPC::NA blog posts?

After most conferences we usually see a flurry of blog posts. These can be helpful when deciding what talk videos to watch. There haven't been many post-YAPCNA this year. So a request: when you go to a conference, please consider writing a blog post afterwards, even just a short one. It's helpful and interesting for those of us who can't attend. And we Perl Weekly editors appreciate it too :-) Neil Neil Bowers |

Conferences
|
by Kivanc Yazan (KYZN) The recent YAPC::NA was Kivanç's first; here he shares just 5 of the things he learned. I feel he's holding back, as I'm sure Kivanç learned more than 5 things! |

|
by Neil Bowers (NEILB) I want to encourage more first time speakers, particularly at LPW. As part of that I'm questions of good / experienced speakers. What question should I ask, and of whom? |

A great post about what makes a good commit message, and why you should do this. |

by Amanda Folson If you're championing open-source at your employer, and they're not buying it, this might provide some ammunition. |
