I just got notified today that my talk "Digital Rite of Passage - a framework for guiding kids into digital adulthood" was accepted to the Ethics, Society & Politics track, so cool to see it there!

Awesome, I can't wait to see that.

Man, I love the CCC. To me, they are what being a hacker is truly about.

I know this place calls itself Hacker News, but to me being a hacker always had a countercultural element, a distrust of power structures. This place is the power structure and reinforces it...

It was actually really confusing to me when I started to hang out on English language CS spaces that the rest of the world is not like that. I thought this just comes with the prevalence of open source but apparently not.

Looking at the recent post about small shops on English high streets, it seems like the only thing people on here hate more than poor people is children.

I really hope I can get tickets. This is the first time I'd be attending, and after going to my first Defcon this year and realizing I'd found my people, I decided I should absolutely do Congress. I'm looking forward to it

In my experience CCC is much more enjoyable than defcon. More community oriented, creative and non-commercial.
