My friends are I are trying to do something crazy this summer: we're going to do a roadtrip around the country and run a hackathon in 50 cities! We're trying to figure out how exactly we do this; if you want to help out / sponsor, lmk! summer24.xyz

The in-house version of Expensify we built for HCB has almost crossed a million dollars in reimbursements paid out! Pretty cool.

Our second confirmed speaker for #SFRuby on February 11 is Sam Poder with "How we built a bank with Ruby on Rails". Sam will talk about building a bank for fiscally sponsored nonprofits: hcb.hackclub.com/hq sharing lessons learnt, things that ended up in the technical debt

We’ve done it! Check us out: github.com/hackclub/hcb. Taking a seven year old codebase and getting it ready to be public was a massive project.

A really worthwhile way to spend a summer:

Slack is threatening to shut off a big nonprofit teen coding community Hack Club (which is amazing and which I’ve helped for years) with just 3 days to migrate off. This would strand thousands of of the world’s smartest future coders. They are asking for $50k (a surprise 60x

I met my closest friends in high school on Hack Club Slack. Nearly a decade later, I know them irl in SF, building incredible careers. That Slack is an archive of thousands of brilliant young ppl’s early days. Slack: stop rent-seeking & support the coolest thing on the web!

Join us at the Palace! The team is pouring everything into this event and it’s going to be incredible.

I'm giving a talk on open sourcing your Rails startup @ SF Ruby in November: sfruby.com! You should come along!

So awesome to meet so many incredible builders — and hear about their excitement for the future — at Cal Hacks today!

Truly inspired to see thousands of builders creating the future at Cal Hacks 12.0. We never imagined it would be getting bigger and better each year, over a decade after 1.0. Really enjoyed our chat Dylan Field!

first time visiting Cal Hacks irl since i departed berkeley — very insane to see what the team is doing + hear about some of the stats!!! well done 🫡

Cal Hacks 12.0 was insane! I'm super proud of the whole team for pulling it off :D We had 3.3k hackers and 700 projects were shipped - that's double last year's Cal Hacks! Plus we did it all at the Palace of Fine Arts w/ great food, a silent disco, and beautiful designs.
