First time organizing WordCamp Europe! I'm on the Communications, Marketing & PR team for #WCEU27. WordCamp Athens taught me what organizing really takes, and now I get to do it at a whole new level. Thank you @pressidium.com for making it possible 💙

Inclusivity doesn't mean the door's open and you can walk in. No one's gonna walk in.
Leaving a seat open at the table isn't enough. You have to go to people and actually invite them to sit down.
There's pie here. Share it. 💙

About half of Greeks have donated blood at least once. Only ~4% donated last year, and barely 1 in 100 of us does it regularly.
We still import blood from Switzerland. Don't wait for an emergency to roll up your sleeve! 💙 #donateblood

15min of your time can save up to 3 lives!
It's estimated that 38% of the population is physically eligible to donate blood yet only about 3% actually do each year. (US stat)

40hrs of training, a written exam and 2 days straight in the mountains (with questionable weather conditions) for more training and a high-pressure practical exam in the field...Basic Life Support (CPR/AED) & Stop the Bleed (Bleeding Control) were a breeze compared to the Advanced WFA course! ⛑️

Only after identifying and understanding the layers involved in hosting can you address performance (and security) from start to finish!
Can anyone know too much about all the different layers of caching? Of course not, so that's why you'll love checking out the podcast episode with @paloukas.bsky.social.
We talk performance, caching, and generally dive deep into optimizing strategies.
