Lou Creemers

I know nothing about baseball, but I saw that there's a MLB game going on in Kansas City while I'm there 👀

I said "f it" a couple of days ago and booked flight tickets from Amsterdam to Tokyo for in October.

I can't wait to visit all the Pokemon centers and just be a (respectful) nerd for 9 days straight over there.

That's me

It's a timezone bugfix day today

I can confirm. I did a podcast episode as a guest not too long ago haha

I wish I had that type of money haha. I would probably only do that if I was generating YouTube incoming. Not for a couple of videos that will probably make 200 views if not less

Got asked 3 times after my talk if I make video content because my explanations are so good.

Honestly? I can't handle watching my own face or hearing my voice while editing. Just being real.

Being back in a quiet office after attending Code Europe and WeAreDevelopers almost back-to-back feels really strange.

Where are the free drinks and food? Where are my friends?????

I always think "oh yeah let's add StyleCop to my C# project"

5 minutes later I regret all my decisions because of the 26 different warnings.

Ohhh that's awesome. What has your favorite print been so far?

I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the tip!

I don’t think I’m that great of a speaker, but hearing that people enjoyed what I shared and want me back really means a lot.

Whether it’s conferences I’ve spoken at inviting me again or organizers who saw me at one event asking me to speak at theirs, I’m genuinely grateful.

So I have two GitHub accounts (lovelacecoding and LouellaCreemers). I'm considering moving everything to LouellaC so that I can archive lovelacecoding.

Switching back and forth between accounts with git is a pain, and having an empty GitHub activity grid annoys me.

Congratulations!

This year I'm going to be speaking in Africa and North America for the very first time.

I really want to try and speak at conferences in Australia and / or Asia in 2026.

Go big or go home, right?

I'm considering visiting Vancouver in October. It's been on my to-visit list for a very very long time.

WeAreDevelopers promotion graphic. Louëlla Creemers, .NET developer at Louëlla Development at WeAreDevelopers World Congress. The World's leading event for developers & tech leaders. 9th until 11th of July 2025.

So excited for WeAreDevelopers next week!

I'll be giving a session about PyGame and how you can build a 2D game with it 🎮.

I'll see you at WAD!

First in my family to earn a degree, and now my younger sister starts her bachelor’s this fall. I couldn’t be prouder!

Looks like I’m officially her go-to uni guru for the upcoming 4 years though🤣

Whaaatttt?! @starbuxman.joshlong.com . Congratulations 👏🎉!

The Tech Expo at Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences is today.

If you're in or around Rotterdam and want to meet some cool IT / software students somewhere between 14:00 and 16:00, please hit me up.

Upcoming Tuesday

Since a lot of CS students in The Netherlands start out with C# as their very first language, I secretly hope we can add some more younger voices to the .NET speaker community by doing this 😁

Update Conf Krakow has come to an end 💔.

Next up: guest lecturer talk next week at a Dutch university about how I went from student to speaker ♥️.

😍 We love to share dev's knowledge as speakers: Mabrouk Mahdhi, @bronwenz.bsky.social, Konrad Kokosa, @kajetanduszynski.bsky.social, @louella.dev, Tomáš Herceg with the community.
