Title: My CodeCamp 2011 talk

See me present! w00t!

I hate my own voice, and I talk too fast, and blahblahblah. Plus a chunk's missing (but I think they recovered the audio?).

All that aside, if you want to see me giving a talk, there it is!

Bowes. I thought it was pronounced like bending over on a stage, not what you put on Christmas presents.

Yeah, most telemarketers think the same thing. But nope! It's pronounced "bows", like the things people put on Xmas presents. :)

Yes, because "bows" is both a plural noun as well as a third-person singular present active, the two of which are pronounced differently.

A better way to say it would be "Well, take Bo Jackson, and clone him a few times. The result is a bunch of Bos"

That's the correct pronunciation, I guess.

Hmmm... I would say Bose is at least upper middle.

Hipster meetings are actually not a point in time or space, they are a point in another dimension. In other words he "went".

There are a few things Bose does well, none of which are really indicators of their audio quality. For example, I've tried at least a dozen different "high end" headphones and Bose, by far, has the best noise-cancelling headphones. I don't have a music player so it's more an exercise in self-indulgence to try things out. Bose also has a good marketing team for a speaker company. But Klipsche, Shure, etc. blow it out of the water in terms of audio quality. And I am by no means an audiophile -- classical music is just a good genre for finding out if speakers have a good range.

I'm genuinely sad. That was a Simpsons quote, one of the best 5 second clips I can remember, and iago didn't respond. Probably very unhipster of me to care. Also, you can't see my balls through my jeans, so I don't quite classify.

That and I don't think everything's, like, totally ironic.

You're a little slow, was poking fun.  Sarcasm over the interwebs is hard, maybe I should have italicized it or something.
