I mean you can go through a checklist of what every other tech event does and acknowledge it, accept it non judgementally but hold it as an anti pattern for sudo room: has more people speaking than doing, has more women talking about coding than actually coding, is more about promoting big corporate brands than indie ones, full of people whose career it is to be a "thought leader", has a lot of weird freebies in the form of cupholders, t-shirts, and bottle openers. that stuff is ok but boring and life without passion is also ok. do you want to be boring and without passion or do you want to live life with zest? |
