The CFP has closed and our speakers have been selected! We’ll be announcing them over the next couple of days, so keep an eye out here or on your email for more info.

I’m also happy to announce that this year, Deserted Island DevOps will be streaming for charity! Since there’s no registration fee, we’ll be encouraging viewers to donate to The Trevor Project during the stream. In addition, 100% of unused sponsor monies will be given to the charity.

Deserted Island Sessions - Summer Send-Off! Austin Parker - Posted Aug 14, 2020

We’ve had some fun this summer, but like all good things, it’s time for it to come to an end. We’re going to do one last show from Animal Crossing, but it’s one you won’t want to miss! Join us for a beach party on August 28th - you can find out more about the speakers at our sessions page.

This will be our last formal event for 2020, so I hope everyone can attend!

Talks are on YouTube, postmortem writeup, and more. Austin Parker - Posted May 4, 2020

Until next time…

Thank You for Attending! Austin Parker - Posted May 1, 2020

We had over 8500 unique viewers yesterday, which is quite frankly completely unreasonable for an event that started as a bit on Twitter. I’m going to turn around the individual talks into separate videos and host them on YouTube this weekend, but I really do want to say thank you to everyone who attended. I’d also like to thank our speakers and sponsors for helping make this possible. Finally, a huge shout-out to our volunteer moderators who kept chat flowing smoothly (even if the bot was a bit overzealous at times!).

For those who asked, and many did, I’ll be writing up how this all worked next week and I’ll post it somewhere. I’ll update this page once the postmortems happen.

Again, and I cannot express this enough - thank you for showing up. We accomplished something really special yesterday. Stay safe. Remember, you’ve got a friend in all of us.
