Inexplicably someone at @NiDevConf thinks it makes sense to let me talk again after last year. Now I actually have to write the thing.
Hello, my name is Stephen Rushe and I drink tea, love cats, and provide sarcasm-as-a-service. I’m also responsible for Cricsheet, a project to provide ball-by-ball data for cricket.
You can also find me elsewhere:

I’ve submitted 2 talks to the #nidevconf call for speakers. Please submit your own talks so that I can avoid the hard work of actually writing my talks! The CFP is open until midnight (https://www.nidevconf.com/cfp/)

@srushe Have you any accessible demo’s? I’ve SSML on the list of things to do for an Alexa app but haven’t got that far yet
Not right now sadly. It’s a very hacked together app I’ve done over a few evenings. I had it happily generating SSML before discovering that the browsers didn’t support it. Alexa and the like apparently have good support.

Disappointed at the lack of SSML support in the Speech Synthesis Web API in most browsers (bar allegedly Edge), but pleasantly surprised to have the API read out 🌧 as “cloud with rain”.

I’m watching Ghost in the Shell (the movie), and manually creating an SVG sprite. One of these things is more enjoyable than the other.

I’m currently updating a project of my own to use Gulp 4.0.0. That’ll teach me for letting Javascript get into the build process for my site.
Gulp was successfully upgraded, after much experimentation and reading about asynchronous responses. Can I put JavaScript on my CV now?
