New genre of conference talk: Finishing the projects others did as conference-driven development.
Have you ever been to a talk at a conference where the presenter shows progress on a side project that is not completely done? It is clear that he wanted it to be done for the conference and used the conference as a deadline. But at some point, he ran out of time and had to deliver the promised talk. Then, after the talk, the project went on hiatus.
Find such a project. Complete it and present it.

I've done it myself. I once presented an 80% done BitTorrent implementation in Elixir.
It is on my GitHub. I haven't touched it for years. It is called Hazel and doesn't run on modern Elixir. I look forward to the presentation!
