We're at NDC Oslo! We found a spot on the floor and recorded this a couple of hours before doing our final talk of the event. In this video, we discuss some of what we were planning to cover in that talk, namely HTTPS anti-vaxxers as Scott wrote about earlier in the week. And how did it go? Apparently, exceptionally well!

And last but not least @Scott_Helme and @troyhunt had the most entertaining talk of the conference with "Everything is Cyber-broken". I have no idea who those guys are (some bloggers I think) but they were entertaining at least ;)

I think there's something that just really resonates with people when they see speakers enjoying a talk. If you're happy they're happy and yes, of course you need the content to back it up, but enthusiasm carries you a very long way. It probably also helped that Scott presented both of us with a very nice gift whilst on stage (watch this week's video for context):
In the very last talk of #ndcoslo, @Scott_Helme gave me a rather epic shirt ?

The talk we did was not recorded, we wanted to keep it off the record and light-hearted. However, if you're around NDC Sydney in September you can watch it all again then. For now, enjoy this week's update:
