The real heroes of the world's most remote (AFAIK) software conference is @sixpivot.bsky.social. Without their support as an employer that truly embraces remote work, I'd never have been able to move out here and DDD Outback would never have been.

I've used Nimbus on a few projects and it's always a pleasure.

Alright, who wrote the code to sort labels in Gmail? I see you sorting numerically in the middle of your alphabeticals... tidy work sir/madam, tidy work indeed. I just noticed `_26 Foo` sorting above `_148 Foo` and was suitably impressed.

Our founder, Faith Rees, cuts through the AI noise with some much-needed reality checks. She's asking the questions that actually matter: What problems are you really trying to solve? What's your data situation? Sometimes the best strategy is knowing when NOT to use AI. Watch youtu.be/YPckFCCQZ5g

The most nerve wracking part of conference day isn't giving the talk - it's getting through each meal without dropping food on yourself. #dddperth

Also a huge thanks to @sixpivot.bsky.social for supporting DDD Outback. They've been remote-first for 10 years, so it's little surprise to see them support such a remote conference. 🙇🙇🙇 Check them out at sixpivot.com.au

To say I'm looking forward to this event would be an understatement. Sorry @scott.hanselman.com, you locknoted the wrong DDD - should have held out for one in the Australian outback 😆

My first trip here was >20 years ago. Friends bought it. We'd go on holidays, camp, and help out. Later we'd work the bar at NYE the Pig Races. I've had birthdays there even got married there. I'm excited to share it with fellow geeks. Agenda looks great, but sponsors still needed. dddoutback.com
