Observe: the annual migration of the Hacker to the desert. A remarkable spectacle of talks, technology, and blinking lights known as Hacker Summer Camp.
Our expeditionary team has returned from the wilds of BlackHat, BSides, and DEFCON. Conference halls were descended upon, swag was collected, booths were staged, and in rare moments of calm, we even managed to attend some talks. The Semgrep contingent, displayed a remarkable range of social behaviors; their calls were broadcast from high stages as talks, important texts were ceremonially marked, and gatherings were orchestrated to reinforce the bonds of the pack. The research was punctuated by an out-of-this-world party at OmegaMart and a decisive victory at LevelUp.
Join our field researchers, Dr Katie (a seasoned veteran of this habitat) and Jayson (a wide-eyed noob), as they reflect on their findings and share everything that happened.
