Really sick of all and that insert a gray "for review only" (or similar sentence) as a watermark in the background of each papers to be reviewed. This is super annoying as it makes any selection of text in the pdf impossible (for most places). I'm usually often selecting text, for instance to cite authors own words in my review letter, or point them a typo, or a conceptual issue. What does this watermark really prevent? If someone with bad intention really wants to use the reviewed work, they'll find a way and this pseudo watermark won't prevent anything. If a mention "for review only" is needed, why not placing it only on the top or the bottom of the document so that it doesn't corrupt any text selection?

At this point I stop pitching to #WebDev #conferences because either my topics are trash and / or I'm not influential enough in the scene.

I applied to small and big ones and they all have one thing in common: Ghosting me after I asked why they rejected me.

They're probably busy and don't have time to do that but it would have been nice. 🤷‍♂️

Hey folks, what would be the best way to get out the word on Mastodon about a non-profit gamedev unconference I'm organizing? (Boston GameLoop)

Do we have an events account? Are folks willing to boost?

This is a very good point. Not every conference has live captioning or a sign language interpreter. Since Live Captions runs locally, you can have this on screen during your in-world live conference talks to improve the accessibility of your talks even if the conference is lacking in this area.

And if you’re running a conference, it’s a no-brainer (and free) to have this projected on a screen for all talks.

Conferences are containers for ideas. Especially when they're places where participants share and co-create ideas, rather than just listen.

request: I have a client that’s a large enterprise company making software for marketers.

They’re looking to get speaking placements for their executives into large tech and . Within tech, B2B, software, or general marketing and advertising, with 10,000+ attendees.

Anybody have contacts or tips they can share? Really appreciate it.

Haven’t pitched large clients like this before so I’m nervous 😬
