I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak at @WeAreDevs Berlin 🇩🇪 last week. I was suprised how many eager developers came to learn about how they can introduce technology to their kids! I also had a book signing for my Raising Young Coders book.

🎙️ It was great speaking with @RafaDelNero about my new Raising Young Coders book with @Apress. 📖 This was the longest deep dive conversation I have ever done (almost 2 hours!) and I hope my teaching advice on kids and tech reaches many Java developers ☕👾

It was my first time speaking at #JJUGCCC. The Japanese translated version of my Phippy's AI Friend book was popular (thanks @Logico_jp 🥰). I loved the Duke Ninjas for branding and attendee T-Shirt. 🥷 Phippy's AI Friend Japanese version: amazon.co.jp/dp/1963994035/

Think open source is just for coders? 💻 Think again. I spoke with @TweetFromHilary of the @linuxfoundation about how non-coders drive innovation in open source, from film to phone, and why your GitHub might matter more than your résumé. 🎥👇 youtu.be/dW1TsLTfSPE?fe…

Thank you Rafael for trying the Squishy Circuits/Paper Circuits project with your son! I think the best part is how you were telling me he was inventing his own projects!
