My DrupalCon Amsterdam Core Conversation on Managing Complexity has generated quite a bit of follow-up discussion.

Let's be honest, I spend a lot of time at conferences. Over the past 2 years or so I've averaged more than one speaking engagement at a conference per month, including a half-dozen keynotes.

Ever heard of functional programming? Not procedural programming, but actual functional programming. Probably, as some fancy academic thing that no one really uses, right?

Recently, Anthony Ferrara has been posting a periodic "Beyond" series about software design philosophy.

A little over a month ago, a few Drupal developers announced something new: A fork of Drupal called Backdrop. There's been quite a bit of talk about it, of course.

Well, I've gone and done it. I've managed to setup my most intense conference schedule to date. This fall I will be appearing at no less than five conferences, speaking at least four of them.

Earlier today, I posted a brief tweet (isn't that redundant?) about return values in PHP (or really, any language).
