This cuts real deep. My first PAX, ever, was South 2015. PAX South was the show that convinced me to finally chase my dream of making games. I would absolutely be on a different path if it weren't for South, and I will miss it and San Antonio terribly.

Be a woman
Work in tech
Be continually be asked to speak on diversity and inclusion, not tech
Sacrifice coding time to gain D&I expertise
Get griefed during lecture
Ask Twitter for feedback
"You're asking for feedback, you must lack expertise"
Honestly, I'm just tired now.
Step 1: LiDAR-scan factory with an iPhone
Step 2: Import into Unity, validate the robot fits
Step 3: Move robot around, check where collisions happen!
All in one day, on a budget, with no code - thanks to @unity3d and @LS_VR_company! Next I'll add VR training on top (also easy)!
many people who are successful in tech don't even like it but are there because they see it as either a way to make money or make a name for themselves.
then there are those of us who have had love affairs with tech since childhood and because we love, we can be exploited.
