desert code camp

The second Desert Code Camp is coming up this weekend.

“Code Camp is a free, one-day event put on by the local Phoenix community to help promote software development in general. There is no right or wrong language, platform, or technology. If a topic relates in any way to the code that causes a machine to produce a desired result, it’s welcome here.”

The previous code camp was ok, but the sessions were too jammed together. There was no time to meet people and just talk. Everyone kept running from session to session trying to keep up. Some of the sessions were good, while others were a waste of my time.

I’ll be attending again, hopefully they’ve tweaked the schedule enough so it’s no so jam-packed. There aren’t any sessions that are must-attends for me, so I’ll mostly be there to hang out and support the community. If nothing else, at least it’s a free lunch.

Edit: Apparently lunch isn’t free.
