Fighting the Butterflies & giving your first Postgres conference talk | Claire Giordano | pgDay Paris 2024

Slides from a Postgres lightning talk I delivered at pgDay Paris 2024 as part of my PG community work at Microsoft. The talk is titled "Fighting the Butterflies & giving your first Postgres conference talk".

The abstract: You’re at a Postgres conference. You’re in the audience, taking notes, & absorbing the knowledge being shared. It’s inspiring. But have you ever wanted to fight the butterflies, take the stage, and give a talk yourself? How do you get there? What’s the recipe, and why take the risk?
