Hey guys, seen this ? http://feathub.com/
maybe implement this into the tutorials to see what the community wants as the next tutorial/chapter?
Alexander Kustov
@alexanderkustov
Can we add relevant reads or links to the tutorials or even a further reading section, such as this one, for people to grasp a little more of concepts

Hey all, will anybody be walking up from Shoreditch/ Old street to the workshop (North London) tomorrow evening?

Forgot today is wednesday so won't be able to make it tonight D: I'd like to give a lightning talk at some point though, hopefully that makes up for forgetting...

Does anybody know if you can take your bicycle inside at the place tonight?

Question about the workshop invites. Is the sending of the email happening at the same time as the sign up opening up? Got it 30 mins ago and it's already full, haha.
Kriszta Matyi
@matyikriszta
@NicoSa no, the sign up opens up when the event is created on the site, which was last night I believe. By the time invitations were sent we out we already had about 7 coaches signed up. we are trying to figure out a better way of managing invitations, sorry for the inconvenience. If you get on the waitlist there's a really good chance you'll get in, we have a high turnover on the list

Okidoki, so it's a known "issue". :)

Nicky Chorley
@ndchorley
stupid Maps :(
also, has anyone given a talk on HTTP yet? If not, I'd like to do that when there's a free slot
Kriszta Matyi
@matyikriszta
@ndchorley not as a lightning talk so it would be great if you could do it
Nicky Chorley
@ndchorley
yay, let me know when there's an empty slot :)
Denise Yu
@deniseyu
i don't think anyone is lined up for this upcoming workshop at Twitter, it is yours if you want!
Kriszta Matyi
@matyikriszta
Guiseppe was supposed to do one
Denise Yu
@deniseyu
ahh whoops. sorry. @ndchorley are you open to doing one in two weeks' time then?
Nicky Chorley
@ndchorley
on the 17th then? Yep, that's fine
Ali
@Najaf
@ndchorley HTTP is an excellent topic for a talk
Kriszta Matyi
@matyikriszta
@ndchorley the Wed lightning talk spot opened up, do you think you'd be able to do the HTTP talk?
Nicky Chorley
@ndchorley
Yep, just need to write it.
Kriszta Matyi
@matyikriszta
@ndchorley excellent, sorry for the late notice :)
Nicky Chorley
@ndchorley
No worries - it's pretty much written in my head anyway!

Hi everyone: I was looking at learning SASS, after a conversation or two this week. But I wanted to know if the styles will work if I switch off Javascript. Apart from that are there any disadvantages of using SASS? Thanks!.
Oliver Turner
@oliverturner
@assembly21 they will
(work that is)
Sass compiles to static CSS
You need to distinguish between SASS and Sass btw
There are 2 dialects of Sass: SASS and SCSS
SCSS is the one to learn: by far the more common syntax
And no, there is no downside... unless being too awesome is a downside.
(For the record I don't consider needing a build step to be much of a downside)
I guess there's one thing I'd note, which is that the real hipsters are beginning to get on the PostCSS bandwagon, but in terms of getting a job, IDE support, etc SCSS is a very solid bet

(let me know if any of that ^ needs clarification)
