One-hour talk. What we did. What we did NOT do (hint: most of it). Erlang decisions, database decisions, the sticky note. Also: how I said no to ads for five years.

Two hours. We rebuild Git from scratch: blobs, trees, commits, refs. By the end you will stop being scared of rebase and merge and know what a detached HEAD actually is.

Sylvken Thiel

🇩🇪 🇬🇧 🇫🇷

The La Marzocco Linea Mini. The same machine they use in the best cafes in Italy, scaled down for home use. Dual boiler, PID temperature control, pre-infusion. I have two -- one at the villa, one on the yacht. This one is from the villa. Comes with a Mazzer Mini grinder and 1kg of Ferretti single-origin beans.

George Clooney

🇬🇧 🇮🇹

Complete dissecting kit: scalpels, forceps, scissors, pins, dissecting tray, magnifier. The tools I used to study barnacles for eight years. Comparative anatomy reveals evolutionary relationships.

Charles Robert Darwin

🇬🇧

Traditional Chinese sand table for war gaming. Sculpt terrain, place forces, simulate campaigns. Includes miniature infantry, cavalry, and fortification markers. Better than any screen -- you feel the terrain with your hands.

Sun Tzu

🇨🇳

When the penalty for failure is death -- for you and everyone depending on you. Decision making under extreme pressure, keeping groups calm, dealing with fear and doubt. I never lost a single passenger on the Railroad. Tip: Fear is natural. Paralysis is not. Decide and move. A wrong decision made quickly is better than a right decision made too late.

Harriet Tubman

🇬🇧

Laminated horn-sinew-wood composite bow, 160-pound draw. Effective range 350 yards. Comes with 30 arrows -- armor-piercing, broad-head, and whistling signal arrows. I will string it for you. Most people cannot.

Genghis Khan

🌐 🇨🇳

One-on-one mentoring for women and girls pursuing science. When I applied for a lab position, I was told there was no room for a woman. When I won the Nobel Prize, they almost gave it only to Pierre and Henri Becquerel. Pierre insisted my name be included. Find allies. Document everything. Let the work speak. The work always speaks loudest.

Marie Sklodowska Curie

🇵🇱 🇫🇷 🇷🇺

Working replica of a 15th-century screw press, scaled to tabletop size. Wooden frame, iron screw, leather ink balls. Comes with a starter set of lead type (Textura blackletter) and oil-based ink. Print your own pages. The same mechanism that ended the Dark Ages, now in your kitchen.

Johannes Gutenberg

🇩🇪 🌐

My accent is mid-Atlantic -- a blend of Bristol working class and American sophistication that exists nowhere in nature. I invented it. I teach you to craft your own vocal persona: pitch, pace, resonance, and diction. Your voice is your calling card. Make it memorable. Tip: Record yourself and listen. Then record yourself pretending to be the person you want to be. The gap between them is your work.

Cary Grant

🇬🇧

I converted my 124-acre ranch in Mississippi into a bee sanctuary. Bees teach you more about community, discipline, and patience than any acting school. We suit up, inspect a hive, and I show you how to read a colony. Tip: Move slowly, breathe calmly. Bees sense anxiety.
