A pet peeve of mine is more along the lines of a culture issue I'm struggling with, so feel free to call me out of it doesn't fit.
It's the notion that if you're working in technology today, you are a young, single person with no other major responsibilities to anyone other than yourself. As a newer developer and father of two, I hate running up against that notion. Which is why it makes me happy when people like Dave Rupert talk about how damn hard it is to learn all of the new things when you have two kids, or when Leah Silber MC'd EmberConf holding her toddler.

Is there a video/post about Leah? That sounds amazing!
I tried finding some video of it, but this was told to me by someone who attended Emberconf. If I find it, I'll let you know!
Thanks!
