julia ferraioli<p>My grandmother passed right before my ML talk at <a href="https://floss.social/tags/FOSDEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSDEM</span></a>. I had amazing support from my team to go home and back out of my talks at <a href="https://floss.social/tags/SOOCon24" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SOOCon24</span></a> if I wanted to. But, I know what my grandmother would have said— the show must go on.</p><p>Yes, I had to get one more Queen reference in!</p>

Stuart Langridge<p>Home. Very tired. But there is still time for my first decent cup of tea in two days. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/soocon24" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>soocon24</span></a> was excellent, but like most other conferences, it’s run by coffee drinkers who think it’s reasonable to provide warm water to make tea with. It is not. Boiling water. I don’t ask for much.</p>
Jamie Tanna<p></p><p>Well, I'm home after a great couple of days at <a href="https://www.jvt.me/tags/state-of-open-con/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StateOfOpenCon</a> <a href="https://www.jvt.me/tags/soocon24/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SOOCon24</a>, which has given me lots to think about. There were some great talks, some really interesting hallway track conversations, and nice to meet friends old and new.</p><p>First of all a huge thank you to the organisers - there were so many of you behind the scenes doing such great work to make the event a massive success. I've seen the effort that it can take to do a single track conference let alone 8 tracks(!!!) so it's a huge result, and I hope y'all are gonna have some well deserved rest!</p><p>I'd like to say in particular a bit thank you for the work that <span class="h-card"><a class="u-url" href="https://macaw.social/@andypiper" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@andypiper</a></span> has been doing in the lead up to the conference to support the speakers, being warm, super helpful and supportive, as well as seeing them busy over the conference helping ensure everything was going well</p><p>And a big thanks to <span class="h-card"><a class="u-url" href="https://hachyderm.io/@AmandaBrock" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@AmandaBrock</a></span> for all her excellent work with OpenUK and State of Open Con 🙌</p><p>I'll definitely be making my way back next year 👀 And I'll be (re)watching talks as they pop up!</p>

popey<p>Back in London for day two of State of Open Con 2024. Yesterday, I was volunteering on the event crew all morning, so didn’t attend any talks, but spent a while as a “welcome bot” on the door, and room usher. That meant I had plenty of opportunities for quick chats with friends and familiar faces. In the afternoon I attended a few interesting talks, which I will probably talk about on an upcoming <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://ubuntu.social/@linuxmatters" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>linuxmatters</span></a></span> soon. <br>Today, talks the morning then I am volunteering in the afternoon 🥰<br><a href="https://ubuntu.social/tags/soocon24" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>soocon24</span></a></p>
