Stop Committing Your Secrets

No one wants their keys and secrets on GitHub, but one bad push can mean you are suddenly exposed. Best case you know and fix it, worse case you don’t find out until it is far too late.

While most devs are familiar with using .gitignore files to prevent Git from tracking specific files and folders. But did you know that you can leverage Git hooks and some open source tools to keep you from accidentally committing your secrets inside files Git is actively tracking?

Improv Skills Everywhere!

If you say the word “improv” to most folks, you might get a cringy look from those who are afraid they will invite you to an improv show. Most folks immediately associate it with comedy, thanks to the popularity of shows like “Whose Line Is It Anyway?”

However, improv in its truest form is a way to unleash creativity and give yourself permission to think more freely. It can turn confrontations into pleasurable exchanges and get you out of your own way. In this talk we will walk through several easy to do at home exercises and hopefully get everyone start seeing the world a little differently.
