Switching to Caesars checking out of Tuscany
Caesar’s Kiosk didn’t work trying to check in
Line was LONG
FYI: Render had attempted to check in the night before. We never got the room is ready notification from night before.
Desk agent insisted he could not refund us that night, and called manager who also refused.
I worried I would be late to Diana Initiative. https://www.dianainitiative.org/
We finally got room and I headed to Diana.
I got my badge and shirt and my speaker gift. It was a presentation device! Awesome.
Hung out in lockpicks waiting on my talk and testing the presentation device. I caught the tail end of the Amazon devices talk.
Sadly Diana as a whole had to turn away people at the door as they were over fire marshall capacity.
I gave my talk in a small packed room. I had multiple A/V issues (Probably my laptop’s fault? Although It worked fine at BSidesLV.) But apparently the talk went well anyway. I need to go ahead and give the presentation via YouTube or something and record it as Diana didn’t have A/V this year and people missed it.

The talk focused on actionable items people of a variety of positions and walks of life could take. Hopefully each person attending could find one to leverage.
The talk can be given in different ways, I could tweak it to present to those specifically apply for jobs, those specifically hiring for jobs, parents or those with the opportunity to educate children, those in media (TV, print, games, etc), and lastly just those allies that want to help and are not managerial.

After that I ran off to settle into the room and get ready for Skytalks setup, despite the rumor we would NOT get in early for setup, we did.
Dinner was #HackerFoodies Hackerfoodies.com at Jaleo
It was very tasty.
After I hung out with funsize and then crashed.
