Non-Tech Contributions to the Tech Community

"I'm not skilled enough a programmer to contribute" is a common response I get when I ask programmers why don't they contribute to the open source community. In this lightning talk, I share some ways that you can contribute to the community (hint: it's all non-technical and anyone can do it) even if you're half a decent coder like me.

Talk given at Red Dot Ruby Conference 2015
