A better place to write and store slide decks for the various open source conferences that I speak at. Be sure to look for speaker notes!

After years of using an office suite to craft slides using a custom template for every conference, I've switched many presos to using simple Markdown and one of the modern browser-based JS slide tools.
Using Remark, I usually run a slide deck locally (having seen far too many conference wifi networks barf). Open a command terminal, cd to the /shaneslides/ directory, and then do:
ruby -run -ehttpd . -p8000
or do:
python -m http.server 8000
Then open your browser to http://localhost:8000/apachecon (for example) and click on the .html file for the presentation to run.
I speak regularly at ApacheCon and Community Over Code on community and branding issues around Apache projects. I've also spoken at All Things Open, OSCON, Ignite, Camel One, the Software Freedom Law Conference, and the PLI Law Education conference.

Code historians may note this site was manually created by copying files from my /slides repository in November 2022. This is because the DNS verification and publishing of that repo seemed to be totally borked, although I haven't figured out how to reproduce the bug to report to GitHub Pages.
