What's your personal minimal acceptable lead time for a conference talk? If you submit a talk proposal, and it's accepted, then you'd expect to be notified of that acceptance some time prior to your talk, so you can prepare and rehearse well and sort work and travel around the conference. What's that minimum time for you? (Boosts would be nice, thanks!) [ ] 2 weeks [ ] 4 weeks [ ] 6 weeks [ ] 8 weeks or longer

Me too 👀 made good use of a train to London to get some abstracts together, let's see how they're received.

Whatever happens, there'll still be a blog post to TL;DW what would've been the talk

Every so often, I come across some conference talk which is highly interesting in terms of its actual contents, but which unfortunately is presented in a less than ideal way. I’m thinking of basic mistakes here, such as the presenter primarily looking at their slides rather than at the audience. I’m always feeling a bit sorry when this happens, as I firmly believe that everyone can do good and even great talks, just by being aware of — and thus avoiding — a few common mistakes, and sticking to some simple principles.
