I’m just back from Leweb3, which is one of the big European web conferences. It was fruitful in many ways and met lots of fun people, but the party at La Scala was weird.
When I arrived around 11 pm, the dance floor was starting to get crowded - by middle-aged, slightly overweight engineers, all male, all dancing with each other, shaking their booties. When I looked out on the crowd I could easily count the few women, who must have been either very happy, or very scared.
I wouldn’t have been surprised if a bunch of male strippers would have shown up on the stage - it had that kind of vibe. But the free bar was nice!
