Normconf

Normconf is the tech conference about all the stuff that matters in data and machine learning, but doesn't get the spotlight

enjoyed Tim Hopper's shout out to "programmed in TI-BASIC" at #normconf
@py data science/engineering recently had #NormConf with the same spirit, discussing the everyday, boring, normal work that you need to do for successful data projects etc, maybe you could do a NormConfMobile ?

I really need to watch the playlist of the NormConf22 talks, some interesting things here it seems.

Started looking at lightning talks from #normconf and from the first one (by @afioritto) I learnt about QUALIFY to filter results from a WINDOW function in SQL. Wish I knew this last year. Would have avoided a lot of ugly CTEs.

I attended #NormConf, expecting nothing.

I went away, delighted from a 15-hour conference that blew me away.
Great talks, great MCs, and even a live-band on zoom.

This recap by Vicki is enlightening!

Gotta respect someone that can accept a one-off:

Brilliant #NormConf talk and advice by @chrisalbon - and it was not about what I anticipated!

Got and have a watch because those will be 15 min well spent.

I’m obviously biased, but I thought this recap post by @vicki was a great summary of all the things that made #NormConf so special.

What I’m most excited for? All the amazing events like this to come from people such as yourselves. If we could do it, so can you. Take Vicki’s advice.

Quick blog post that recaps #NormConf and what I thought made it good from the perspective of running it.

We won't be doing it again, but hopefully this post gives people who are thinking about online conferences in 2023 some tools for planning good experiences. https://vickiboykis.com/2022/12/22/everything-i-learned-about-accidentally-running-a-successful-tech-conference/

Great post about #normconf, full of things that would've helped me out of imposter syndrome

NormConf is an online tech conference about things that matter in data and ML but doesn’t get the spotlight. As something that started as a Twitter joke, NormConf 2022 exceeded anyone’s expectations…
