I find myself missing entire conferences for which I travelled continents for in the past! I just…don’t even know or follow them anymore! I never found conference talks good (too short to go into the weeds, too long to stay interesting), but I enjoyed travelling and meeting people!

Now with working from home, I am happy to do a good job and a conference adds zero value to my personal or professional life! There are so many screencasts out that I simply don’t watch conference talks at all anymore!
