HacktoberFest Begins

HacktoberFest has begun, I spent the day at a couple kickoff events.

I watch Digital Ocean's kickoff. They were joined by Major League Hacking. A bunch of other companies can and shared their projects. They ran a couple quizzes for chance at a shirt. There was no coding but it was fun to chat and get ready for HacktoberFest.

I had about 30 minute break the Virtual Coffee's kickoff. Hacktoberfest really pulled Virtual Coffee together back in 2020. It helped us realize we had something bigger than Zoom and Slack.

I keep missing our regular Zoom meeting so it was awesome to see and be seen for a change. The VC maintainers gave a brief introduction to Hacktoberfest then did a bit of live coding.

After that I headed to lunch. While heating stuff up I got a ping from Discord. Torc was doing live resume reviews. I watched while I ate quesadillas.

Now it's time to look for some Issues.
