Philip Durbin (Sep 09 2024 at 01:50): Philip Durbin (Sep 09 2024 at 01:50):Someone from CarGurus reached out to say they are happy to provide space for our group (and food and soft drinks) if we'd like to have an event there. Soon they'll be moving into their new office at 1001 Boylston St. in the Back Bay. What do you think? Is anyone itching to give a talk? That's the kind of thing that's challenging at a bar. :grinning: :beers: Or maybe we could have a hack night? :thinking:
Dan (Sep 09 2024 at 15:48):Anyone have an easy to join project? Oh, maybe we could list a few and vote.
Philip Durbin (Sep 09 2024 at 21:51):Is the idea that we'd pick a project to hack on?
Dan (Sep 10 2024 at 12:02):Yeah in the case of hack night. I guess you were thinking an open hack night. In which case I had some new things I was meaning to try out...
Philip Durbin (Sep 10 2024 at 12:28):Yeah, whatever is fine. At Boston Python they let people self select into topics like web, data science, etc. But that was quite a large group. Probably 20-30 people.
Dan (Sep 10 2024 at 16:39):At the Rust hackathon there were projects that people ran. They invited other attendees to join for the event. I joined one that was really new territory for me but the guy had some dead simple tasks and I was actually able to contribute.
Dan (Sep 10 2024 at 16:45):I'd be happy to guide people through something Sandstorm related. But that's just an offer, I'd like to hear what people are interested in as well. Talks etc.
Philip Durbin (Sep 26 2024 at 01:40):I let Ned from Boston Python know. Maybe they'll have an event first and we can crash it. :crazy:
Philip Durbin (Sep 16 2025 at 00:34):Yes, Boston Python is having an event first. :smile:

Philip Durbin (Jul 26 2026 at 13:58):According to some emails I'm cc'd on, there's no longer an event at CarGurus on July 30th.
