It's been more than a month since #JFall, but it's nice to go over the memories. Especially when you see your name in the Top 10 of best-rated speakers 😊

Do I need that to feel like a good speaker? No! But it is flattering anyway, so thanks to everyone who rated my talk!

First lesson of 3D-printing. When the manual says to ensure the filament should have a straight end before inserting it in the machine, do so.

On the bright side, I've learned how to unjam the machine.
