It'd be interesting to do a night where we give speakers 10-15 minutes to talk about a Node.js-related programmer of their choosing. I'm chiefly thinking of the range of projects that they've done, but there's a lot of other ways people could take this. The classic example that springs to mind of what someone might do with this prompt: someone could do a timeline of projects created by @substack (we might have to give that person some extra time...).

The thing I like about this plan is that it kind of shows how real live human beings change over time, shows how their interest range over time. It also, hopefully, gives people a ton of interesting different projects to look at!
