Well, that snuck up on us. July's ending, August's looming, and that only means one thing: Hacker Summer Camp is back. And with it, the annual scramble to figure out which of the 400 overlapping talks are worth missing a nap for. The good news is that Dr Katie has done this before, and she has some sage advice.
This month she’s joined by fellow advocate Space Rogue, an even more veteran veteran of Hacker Summer Camp fixture, for a no-holds-barred preview of what's landing in the desert this year. We're talking the talks we're genuinely excited about, the trends we expect to dominate the hallway con, and, just as importantly, where we're planning to actually spend our limited time and sanity between three overlapping conferences.
Expect some strong opinions on what's signal versus noise this year, a few old-school war stories for context, and the eternal question every attendee asks by day three: was any of this worth the sleep deprivation?
