Lodging​

Airbnb information will be here

We'll book it from wednesday afternoon (the 2nd) to monday morning (the 7th).

Reimbursement​

Send charges to Quinn D's venmo (info in discord). If you can't use venmo for whatever reason, DM Quinn D.

Please do not send me more than $125 total in ubers.

Also, the $10 train from the airport to downtown is great!

Unreimbursed food/activities​

  • Wednesday and Thursday night (2nd, 3rd) dinner
  • Anything/everything on the day off (Saturday)
  • Also anyone who gets significantly hungry before 10am, you're on your own.
  • More than one drink at the Sunday night closing dinner

Venue should be gushing with food whenever it's open.

If you're extremely cash-constrained and this is burdensome, do reach out to me. It's not a hyper-budgeted VIP event, but we don't want the socializing to be constrained by asymmetries in ability to take on unreimbursed activities.

Day Off​

Saturday the 5th is a day of no programming in particular.

Have 1:1s​

Coordinate in discord

Hold an unconference​

On-the-fly sessions in the airbnb are welcome. I'll bring my house's whiteboard over there.

Explore the city​

Two things that are unusual about Philadelphia are as follows:

Mütter Museum​

Artifacts of medical misfortune

Revolutionary war stuff​

If you're into it, the neighborhood called Old City is full of exhibits (room where the declaration was signed, liberty bell, etc.) and has a museum.

Do nothing​

It's a day off. Rest, relax.

Work​

Cafes, the airbnb, etc.
