There were a couple awkward moments during Tim Maher's lightning talks this morning. Tim, a couple of your slides weren't funny. Milking pictures of "the natives" for laughs is pretty lame. I hope you noticed that the no one in the audience laughed.

Now, if that slide were replaced with a picture of geeks at LWE or OSCON or wherever, with Perl, Python, Linux, etc t-shirts...

Yes, exactly. It's all good fun to mock ourselves, not so fun to mock others.
