Thanks to ACM-W at WSUV for inviting me to talk there this week. There were so many good questions afterwards, that I've started a Discord server (https://discord.com/channels/1436067417611567144/1436067418244911187) for discussions/ideas/etc.

You can find a recording of the talk at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw7cZSz-5ps

It's been a long time since the last update, so I'm not going to try to add real dates to these events: I just want to get them posted. Organization can come later!

UPCOMING TALK!
