* you're staying in a hostel?!

proposal for DevOps confs:

* replace DevOps w/ "talking to each other"
* remove digital prefix (if there's no suffix, remove it regardless)

idea: write log files (lines?) to git

"yeah, got in all right. it seems fine, except there's no electricity in the room"

"The fuse box is opposite bedroom 5. If you open and c…"
