In case you missed it at dconf.org, our first night of BeerConf at DConf '25 is set to be very different than in past years, courtesy of Weka.

Of course they're providing you with the customary free drinks, but they're also going to feed you. On top of that, be prepared to have your intellect challenged as you compete for a prize in a Kahoot quiz.

So if you're attending DConf '25, don't make any dinner plans! Head straight over to the pub and grab some food before it's gone, wash it down with your beverage of choice, and battle it out for the Kahoot crown!

I had the same rant last year.
From my perspective this is wrong resource management.

But again - this is of course from the point of "community development" and WEKA has their own targets and purposes :)

The cost of the happy hour is a small percentage of, and completely separate from, the amount Weka donated to us to supplement Symmetry's funding for our salaries and the cost of DConf. It's awesome that they're willing to do it. This is a good thing. Be happy.

That sounds fun! I wonder if it's a regular pub quiz or if the questions are catered to D programmers.

I'm told it will be on 'a relevant topic'.
