Final @NIDevConf speakers rehearsal at @instil this evening. Providing peer review of talks with @shinyemptyhead and @ryangadams. A dozen excellent talks, all in the final stages of preparation. Year after year, the Belfast software community keeps expanding and improving 🎉🙂.

It is totally unsustainable for Alliance to have no position on the future of the island. If they don’t support change do they support the status quo? It has to be one or the other.

"He said that these meetings were not negotiations, only information gathering exercises.".
DUP’s Sammy Wilson has said he attended secret meetings with Sinn Féin at a time when negotiations with the party were against DUP policy.

Just flew back from Dr. Strangelove in London. Great show. Steve Coogan shines in 4 roles (especially the eponymous one). But for me, John Hopkins steals the show as General Ripper. Off now to rehydrate with rainwater.
