Thanks to everyone for a fantastic #BornHack

I’m baffled that every Bornhack keeps being better than the last.

This year I managed to put up a talk, two lightning talks, a gamejam and a few spontaneous meetups. All of it was a great success. So many smart people engaging in interesting ways.

And here’s to all of the new friends I made this year! I’m so glad I met you. 🤗

Now I go back to $dayjob. See you all next year! ⛺ ⌘ Read more

What’s super annoying about this one is that the source is a course page at Tufts University, not the official page of the publication they’re taking this text from. I know the professor who taught that course and I’ve guest lectured for them before on this topic. They put this publication in their course readings, and I guess that’s where Google picked it up.
