I'm Caleb: a dreamer, speaker, and computer whisperer. I organize the Keep Ruby Weird conference, which of course you’ve heard of and are very impressed by. When I'm not painting miniatures or climbing cliffs to jump off into the water, I work for Heroku and code in Ruby and Go. I've walked barefoot from the wintry tundra of Alaska to the harsh deserts of Arizona. Okay, that’s not true, but I did live in those places. I currently hail from Austin, TX—the taco capital of the United States.
Many conferences and speakers build in time for audience questions during a talk. How often are those questions actually useful? How often do they take up time everyone would rather spend in other ways? Wouldn’t you rather use that extra time on your message? Or give the time back to the audience for a longer break?
