Ask HN: Do you go to conferences?
- AngryAnt 8y agoWhen it is relevant to my work and I can clearly identify a sensible benefit of going, then yes. If I do not have meetings scheduled or opportunity to schedule ones which would otherwise be difficult to attain, I evaluate the networking value of the event.
