I've been a fan of Julia Evans, for what seems like ages, because of all her blog posts.<p>This is the first time I'm seeing a video of hers and I feel I've become an even bigger fan now!<p>What an amazing, incredible, human being! I don't think I've ever listened to a technical talk and smiled all the way through it!<p>Thank you, Julia, for reminding that this feeling of joy is one of the main reasons a lot of us are here.<p>And thank you, Slackwise, for posting this and sharing that joy on HN.<p>While writing this comment, I was also reminded about one of the main reasons of Matz's for inventing Ruby!
