Hope to see you there!
- smanek 17y agoIf we're going to get more than ~10 people, I can go over there and try to negotiate some sort of food/drink special. If you're planning on attending, could you say so in this thread so I can get an approximate head count.
- dantheman 17y agoI'll try and attend (90% chance of making it :P).
- cmos 17y agoI'll try to be there!
- mechanical_fish 17y agoI'm planning on it.
- leertaylor 17y agoI'm also about 90% sure that I'll be there!
- chriskelley 17y agoI'm in.
- willhf 17y agoSee you there!
- christonog 17y agoI'll be there.
- aneesh 17y agoI'll probably attend.
- cobrien 17y agoShould be able to come!
- dgallagher 17y agoI should be there, and might bring 1 other.
- UsNThem 17y agoI will be there !
- matt1 17y agoAnother guy and I will be there as well.
- sheldonwt 17y agoI'll be there as well.
- timcederman 17y agoYep.
- JayNeely 17y agoI'll be there.
- bkrausz 17y agoI'm 80% there, depending.
- smanek 17y agoLooks like we've got plenty of response. I'll stop by tomorrow afternoon and see if we can work something out.
- smanek 17y agoSo I stopped by to talk to someone at the Scholar's Pub yesterday. They are having a Trivia Night on Sunday, but there should be plenty of space for us. The only deal they seem to be willing to cut is an all you can eat buffet sort of thing for $7/person. Personally, that seems like a good deal - but I don't think that everyone will want to be forced into participating (I was hoping for some sort of 'half off food with password' sort of deal, but apparently they don't do that). So let's just show up and have a good time. The food/drinks are fairly cheap (by Cambridge standards) anyways.
- chrisconley 17y agoI'll probably be there. I'm the other guy under matt1's response. :)
- UsNThem 17y agoWasnt there talk of a HN meetup on monday OCT 12 9 am ? at MIT ?
- chriskelley 17y agoWell, the bootcamp event starts at 9am - so I think there was some talk about an ~8:45am meetup outside Kresge right before hand, but this is more of an "eat some food, drink some spirits, talk about taking over the world" kind of gathering.
- grinich 17y agoThere are quite a few people coming, so you'll likely be wanting to grab seats at 8:45. Probably better to meet up the night before or after the event.
- sebg 17y agoI'm coming in from new york city and would love to grab lunch with anybody who is around after the event. We can probably just grab some food in MIT's cafeteria in the student center. Would that work for you gals/guys?
- UsNThem 17y agoJust curious : For the monday event - how many are taking time off from work ?
- chriskelley 17y agoI'm flying in from LA on Saturday, missing work on Monday. Seemed like a great excuse to get out of town for the weekend!
- christonog 17y agoComing in from NC, taking sometime off from work.
- sebg 17y agoComing in from NYC
- cobrien 17y agoFlying up from DC on Sunday, leaving Tuesday afternoon.
- leertaylor 17y agoI'm already in Boston, but taking the day off from work on Monday.
- dannyr 17y agoDamn. I won't be in the area until October 13th.
- DrJokepu 17y agoI suppose it would make sense to mention in the post title that this is Cambridge, MA as opposed to the fake, less-known Cambridge in England. (I would have gone if it was the second one though).
- msabalau 17y agoFYI: The Thirsty Scholar has Trivia Sunday nights at 8, and it's pretty popular, so you might want to get there a bit early to grab a table.
- mickt 17y agoNice pic, I looked at it and almost immediately knew it was in Ireland (w/o looking at the tag). U weren't up in Donegal when that was taken were you? Why the scholar? I've never been there, but the best Irish pub I've been in close to the city is the Druid in Inman Sq. Deadly Guinness, and great grub, plus many of the staff are from Co. Clare.
- chriskelley 17y agoNah, that was somewhere near Balinasloe - was headed over to Galway. Scholar was recommended by a local, I'm from out of town - should be fun, hope to see you there!
- timcederman 17y agoIs this still going ahead?
- chriskelley 17y agoI'll be there
- christonog 17y agoI'll be there as well.
