My Open Conference Expectations

Open Conference Expectations

Conferences are awesome. Here's how to keep them awesome.

What We, As Speakers, Expect from Conferences

  1. An audience: People to communicate the ideas we have to.

  2. A venue: A place we can do the communication in.

# DIY programming - Code for yourself
# 自給自足プログラミング
There are people who love making furniture by themselves.
It is not so popular to make software as DIY,
but more people should be enjoying DIY programming in the future
since it is becoming more and more easy to learn programming.
We programmers are allowed to enjoy this progressive kind of life-style
in advance.
Claim from Facebook. Copied to protect the privacy of the person spreading the claim.
Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.
It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings....
DO YOU KNOW.. The difference between margarine and butter?
Read on to the end...gets very interesting!
Both have the same amount of calories.

Comments on some of the resource questions in JL&U
http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/2274/great-websites-for-beginner-reading - nice question, but bit of a popularity contest
http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/9/is-there-an-easily-accessible-list-of-terms-in-the-japanese-grammar-written-both - bit too specific
http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/303/is-the-japanese-language-proficiency-test-jlpt-a-good-measure-of-my-japanese-l - too subjective IMO
http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/1/what-are-good-sources-for-streaming-japanese-language-television - copyright issues
http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/871/is-there-an-objective-source-of-the-origins-of-kanji - not really about resources
