Some weeks ago I was invite to speak at the Campus Party and this past Thursday was the presentation day.

I was giving a mini-workshop about parallel processing to something around 50 people.

No matter how many times have you tested your code, in the middle of the presentation, it will fail and the next day after the presentation, it will work fine, without any changes.

I’m a bit sad about it and next week I’ll be at TDC to speak to more than 100 people and this if f*cking my mind.

Conclusion: live code is a shit and I’ll think 10 times before put it again in my presentation.

    my tip, as someone who's done like two things in the broadcast world: fake it.

    (or at least keep a fake back up, as a failover. and because of Murphy's law)

    even if it's just for peace of mind: everything that you won't have to worry about will make your presentation a little bit better quality wise.
