Sentry Community Show & Tell Night: Share Your Best Fails!


Details
Join us in kicking off our new event series with a lightning round of community show-and-tells. The theme: share your fails and what you've learned from them! We invite every developer (yes, you!) to submit an informal 5-minute story showing off your best fails, foibles and fiascos.
- Bonus: every show-and-tell speaker will get some super snazzy Sentry swag as a gift!
================================
Submit your show-and-tell here:

Deadline to submit:
Monday, July 29th (by 11:59pm PDT)
We'll select speakers on a rolling basis -- so the sooner you submit, the better!
Here's some inspiration to get those creative gears turning:
-
AI gone awry
Example: "A robotic arm trained to slide a block to a target position on a table achieves the goal by moving the table itself." (via https://tinyurl.com/yaflloq6) -
Strange side effects
Example: the SFMTA recently had a bug in its transit data feed resulting in Google Maps suggesting hilariously inconvenient travel directions (via https://tinyurl.com/yyln28yy) -
That time you (or "not you") took down the production server, and how it led your team to improve their processes (or not)
-
An intermittent bug, the many hoops you jumped through to replicate it, and how you banished it once and for all
-
Any of your funniest face-palm moments (and what you learned to never ever do again)
========================
Why only 5 minutes?
-
To encourage every developer to share their experience in a casual, fun environment. (Everybody has a story to share!)
-
To explore diverse topics from a diverse group of speakers. (Get a taste of something new in our potluck-style buffet of ideas!)
-
To invite those new to public speaking to make their voices heard. (We're super low-key and judgement-free!)
