I usually hate doing this, but hey.

From that twitter:

>OG tech diversifier. GitHubber. Lecturer, UC Berkeley Haas School of Business.

And her github is: https://github.com/nmsanchez?tab=repositories

Two repositories have only a README, with, more or less, one line in it. One has a document about, not surprisingly, "diversity in tech" (and a code of conduct, ofc). And one is a fork. Her contributions to other projects sing the same song.

There is also a link there to her profile on https://medium.com/@nmsanchez

>Lecturer at UC Berkeley Haas School of Business. VP of Social Impact @ GitHub. Founder of Vaya Consulting. Purveyor of fine race/class analysis.

All this kind of behavior rubs me the wrong way so i won't even comment on it all.

To be honest i never had a high opinion of electron as a piece of software, so i don't know why i am even here. Sorry, i guess.

It looks like you expect a conference organiser to write open source code and put it on GitHub. Why?
