It's a delightful way to start the day.

Man I love hackfests. Just re-read an article I wrote in 2022 about hackfests at @fusionauth.io . As the company has grown the logistics have changed, but the spirit is still there.

Day 2 at @leaddev.com NYC!
In the spirit of public service, Blair Ewalt did a survey of sponsors.
Results: 52% of sponsor booths (24 of 46) mentioned AI or a close derivative such as 'agentic'.
Come on by and say hi. We can talk to you about AI, but won't force you to talk about AI.
