A kind of modern superhero

prankster (and developer)

I love working with you Syd

Syd does better coding than NASA. And I know NASA and they said "yeah we wish Syd had done our code especially with all that Apollo 18 crap going on, we could have got back to the moon a lot more if we'd used Syd"

Let me introduce you to Syd Lawrence. He's been doing some really nice client-side projects.

Working with Syd is like a masterclass in coding magic. Syd the wise Wizard, conjuring online spells and dispelling evil markup.

@sydlawrence AKA developer extraordinaire

Good lord the internet is fast these days

Probably the best hug ever

You know you will get great work with Syd, and he is so good that I refer to him as "Magic Syd"

It was light-hearted and even though it went quite in-depth, he explained things in such a way that my eyes didn't glaze over the whole way through. Pretty slides too.

The feedback from the audience was great they all found him very entertaining and informative

They've won the internet

All round good egg and dev superstar

Everyone stop working, we've officially finished The Internet.

A very useful talk from Syd

A fucking fascist

Thanks to the commitment and endurance of the Syd Lawrence orchestra--the best UK band ever!

But for Lawrence, playing in his first Test on foreign soil, this was a great opportunity to show that he could generate enough pace to trouble batsmen on even the flattest of pitches.
