Speaking Engagements

If you're interested, below is a list of all the conferences I've given a talk at. I've left smaller events off, but I have included a guest lecture spot at a University as it was a fun thing to do. A few of the below have video / audio / recording - I've included a link where appropriate, and have also included links to articles which may add some context to the various presentations.

Oh hey, HTTPs finally works and I remembered I have a blog

I pretty much stopped posting after realising Blogger were possibly never going to enable HTTPs on custom domains, because I figured what's the point when I'm gonna be shunted out of search results?
