Ask HN: Google I/O costs too much for developers, Where to go instead?
Google I/O admission is $900 and it's unlikely that my company would pay for a developer to attend. What are some other conferences this Spring and Summer that are more geared towards working developers? Goals for attending would be to learn new technologies and network with other developers.
- rman666 14y agoYou know, when computer security conferences started getting too expensive, the BSides Security conferences were born. The idea was this: security conferences are too expensive, but all the speakers are in town. Let's ask them to come and talk for free at a free conference in the same town at the same time ... and it worked! Today, there are BSides conferences that take place all over the world. Learn more at http://www.securitybsides.com http://www.securitybsides.com ... Maybe something similar could happen in the developer world?
