I'm at London #gopherconuk23 today. I shall be "mingling" in a professional capacity. If you see a bearded sweaty bloke who smells 0f coffee, it might just be me. If you want to chat about Authorization, or Go, say Hi (I'll probably scream and run into a corner though) #cerbos #golang
I'd forgotten how awful these tech conferences can be.
It's all just an extenuated series of SaaS adverts with carefully curated titles to make you think you might learn something
I haven't wanted to smoke for years, but it'd be a really convenient excuse for my raging need to leave talks.
@tmcfarlane Ouch, that sounds just like the last conference I attended. 😑
Unfortunately, that's the norm, nowadays. But at least meeting similarly-minded people can be rewarding, maybe?
@elkarrde to be fair , I ducked out of a crap advert for a redis-alike pretending to be a talk on ringbuffers, to a talk by a chap that had a personal project (go-minikanren), which is entirely non practical, but fun (and he was enjoying himself anyway)
