Nice one! As a seasoned industry veteran, I've been wanting to have something like this, and while there are many evening tech meetups going on around here, your schedule is much more suitable for the otherwise busy life! *starts karma mining to qualify*
Filled the form and included my email with the HN user ID just in case you'd be willing to deliver the meeting details that way when they've been decided.
The phone number is not associated with WhatsApp (never had it, and won't), but it works with Signal in case it would be more viable option for meetup info comms than email. Who knows, perhaps even a shadow group already exists there, or has potential to get established?
Thank you for arranging such gatherings, hoping to meet up soon!
What a great idea! Anyone that want to join up in Oslo?
I can use the work office, have more then enough coffee, tea etc. with space to around 150 people.
There was one 14 years ago. I even gave a talk there once. Maybe some of the original organizers or attendees who commented on this post would be interested in rebooting it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4754269
> To keep the group focused on posters (and not just readers!) anyone can join so long as:
> they have a non-greenname account
> they have 64 karma or more
Is the karma checked at the door or is it at the time of submission? Seems like somebody could be at 12 and then post “actually I believe the general consensus on gravity is wrong” in the right thread the night before and roll in with 89 points

I would've gladly joined if you hadn't decided on a service owned by Meta...

(Copy pasted the form. Why change a winning team)
I'm sure there are other HN local meetups who could post in this thread - please do if you have a local meetup
I can make a post about it promoting it.
