I will not be attending Game Development with JavaScript on
Unfortunately I'm going to be unable to make this due to family circumstances - I'm sure Katie Walker is going to rock it though, and I'll be sad to miss it.

This is such a great way to find out just how much can be done for you.
I used to do competitive programming competitions (similar to HackerRank challenges) and learning the standard library was a huge driver to finding the best solution without reinventing the wheel.
But even in the day job, knowing what to use without pulling in a new dependency can make a big difference.
This can go a little further to learning common packages that your ecosystem uses, and how best to tackle problems with them.

Woo, thanks to https://realize.be/ for releasing an update of the wonderful Android app https://indigenous.realize.be/ which adds in a fix to not send multiple bearer tokens in Micropub requests ( https://github.com/swentel/indigenous-android/issues/241 )
This started breaking for me when I upgraded my Micropub endpoint to use the spring-oauth2-resource-server module ( https://gitlab.com/jamietanna/www-api/merge_requests/27 ) which is a well-formed OAuth2 server, whereas my previous implementation was not.
Super speedy fix, and glad to be back to using the app again!
