Speaker Rider

Last updated 14 April 2021

What is a speaker rider?

As speaking comes with immense privilege, I have crafted a speaker rider to set expectations and boundaries around my engagement. I am grateful to all the conference organisers who have brilliantly hosted me. I would love to continue to exercise this privilege to speak at conferences, and use this privilege to make the landscape more accessible and beneficial to tech's most historically excluded and marginalised communities.

Considerations

😫 I provide a lot of explanations for those of you who never had to consider these things. Most thoughtful conferences I've attended check most of these boxes intrinsically, particularly when conference runners are experienced speakers. They get it.

Safest way to clean up boot partition - Ubuntu 14.04LTS-x64, Ubuntu 16.04LTS-x64

Reference

Case I: if /boot is not 100% full and apt is working

1. Check the current kernel version

$ uname -r

	#!/bin/bash

	# Function to display usage information
	usage() {
	echo "Usage: $0 /path/to/input.mp4 [ /path/to/output_directory ]"
	exit 1
	}

	# Check if at least one argument (input file) is provided
	if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then

	#!/bin/bash

	# Create a (draft) pull request using GitHub CLI.
	# It assigns the PR to the current user, fills in the title from the first commit,
	# and uses the PR template file for the description.

	set -euo pipefail

	# Colors for output
	RED='\033[0;31m'

	ALTER TABLE myTable
	add createdAt datetime
	CONSTRAINT DF_myTable_createdat DEFAULT GETDATE()

	ALTER TABLE myTable
	add updatedAt datetime
	CONSTRAINT DF_myTable_updatedAt DEFAULT GETDATE()

	go

	#!/usr/bin/env python3
	# -- coding: utf-8 --

	import os
	import sys
	import argparse
	import datetime

	def main():
	console_prefix = "$ "

	#!/bin/sh

	# 404-check.sh - Script to test for 404s
	# author: lkptrzk

	# Usage:
	# Assuming a file named 'input' with one URL per line
	# the following command will output which files were 404s:
	# cat input \| xargs 404-check.sh

	#!/usr/bin/env python
	# -- coding: utf-8 --

	Dirty script to check if any forks in ahead of master and open that branch commitlist
