.@marktechson with the closing keynote, "From Adversary to Advocate". Stinking Thinking is gatekeeping a career because you don't think a person put in the work you did. CS majors, online students, bootcamp folks, and self-studiers... we're all in it together! #PromptConf2019

Now @hcram1 is talking about the importance of captioning! One thing I didn't know: videos displayed in "places of public accomodation" *must* be closed captioned. 👍 #promptconf2019

.@mlassoff teaching coders design - use 2 (at-most 3) different fonts - if your typography ruins your message, it's not good typography - centered is the weakest alignment - don't right-justify text - create visual hierarchy - whitespace is important - contrast #PromptConf2019

Now @mlassoff is giving the developers in the audience a quick introduction to how to be not absolutely terrible at graphic design when we must put our hands to it. #promptconf2019

Jacqueline Gu on Quick Exit buttons. A quick exit button, like a boss button, helps us quickly hide information that we are looking up. These are needed on sites that cover sensitive topics such as domestic violence, abortion access, or crisis support. #PromptConf2019

But the true joy of this talk is @blinry's new language Legit, which uses git commits as its source code 🙈 #promptconf2019

Now @blinry at #promptconf2019 is showing us some of the weird, bespoke, fun programming languages meant less to be used than to be objects of art. My favorite is Folders. 🗂️ The second image is Hello World. 😂

I'll have the video demo for EmoReply up on Twitter later today. #promptconf2019
.@CodeThatCode didn't like Gmail's cheery and positive auto-replies, so she created EmoReply: auto-replies with angst. #PromptConf2019 github.com/McEileen/EmoReply
