Speaker Rider

Last updated 4 November 2021

What is a speaker rider?

As speaking comes with immense privilege, I have crafted a speaker rider to set expectations and boundaries around my engagement. I am grateful to all the conference organisers who have brilliantly hosted me. I would love to continue to exercise this privilege to speak at conferences, and use this privilege to make the landscape more accessible and beneficial to tech's most historically excluded and marginalised communities.

Considerations

😫 I provide a lot of explanations for those of you who never had to consider these things. Most thoughtful conferences I've attended check most of these boxes intrinsically, particularly when conference runners are experienced speakers. They get it.

But I been low key
Hated on by most of these ops
With no skills, no tests, no quality, no empathy
No CI, no stories, and no speaker fees

Go Resources

This is just a collection of things that I have found useful in my journey through learning/working with Go.

Tools

goreleaser - deploy go applications to github releases. Also magically makes brew taps and supports FPM.
go-github-release - a toolchain around releasing code. I use a combination of the stuff in here along with goreleaser for devopsdays-cli
GoConvey - Write awesome tests and see them in the browser
goreporter - Generate Go quality test reports. Cry at how awful you are.
gorram - It's like go run for a function

Criteria

Be able to process the assets for a hugo based website using gulp, and serve them via Netlify. Contributors to the content of this site cannot be assumed to have anything installed locally besides the hugo binary.

Proposed Approach

File structure of main repo

	package main

	import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v4/go/aws/i8h"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
	)

	func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {

	# Taps
	tap "homebrew/bundle"
	tap "homebrew/cask"
	tap "homebrew/cask-fonts"
	tap "homebrew/core"
	tap "homebrew/cask-drivers"
	tap "homebrew/services"
	tap "devopsdays/tap"
	tap "github/gh"
	tap "heroku/brew"

	If you use the [Castanet](https://www.github.com/mattstratton/castanet) theme for Hugo you can now have your own special theme (i.e., instead of "orange" or "blue", you want "my-cool-podcast" with your own variable colors). Here's kind of how to do it - I'll probably write a blog explaining it much better sometime.

	Assuming you have the `castanet` theme inside of `themes` in your site's directory, here's the stuff you need to create/do/install. (for purposes of example, let's say your hugo site is called `hugocast`)

	1. Install `node` and `npm` (you're on your own to do this)
	1. Copy the `hugocast/themes/castanet/package.json` to `hugocast/package.json`
	1. Feel free to edit the `hugocast/package.json` file to use your project's name and repo, but it's not strictly required, but it's probably a good practice.
	1. Create the directory `hugocast/gulp/tasks`
	1. Copy `hugocast/themes/castanet/gulpfile.js` to `hugocast/gulpfile.js`
	1. Copy the contents of `sass.js` in this gist to `hugocast/gulp/tasks/sass.js` (re
