I'm still writing my 'memoirs' of EuroBSDCon 2025. It's difficult to move forward because the emotions are strong. Computer science has always been my passion, and being among fantastic people like those I meet at the BSD Conferences is always something incredible. And, like all impactful experiences, you often need a little time to avoid sounding like those TV hucksters who are just trying to sell or convince.
Because true, genuine feelings deserve the right importance, in a world increasingly made up of appearances.

@stefano Looking forward to your article.
This year, at my my first #EuroBSDCon, I learned more in two relaxed days of conference than I could have done in 100 hours on the average IT training courses. Not only because of talks but even in all the stimulating conversations I had and by observing expert #Unix people working.
@emilianosandri @stefano I have heard variations on that comment for years.
I’m curious what factors are most educational?
The questions answered?
The talk content?
The hallway track content?
Something else?
@dexter It's a mix of the three factors you mentioned.
But in both: the talks and the hallway track something I enjoyed is seeing the incredible setups many had on their machine and their skill in doing amazing things at lighting speed they showed. In my circles I'm considered very good with Unix but I know that I'm still far from mastery. Observing people at the #EuroBSDCon showed me part of the way towards it.
@stefano thanks for what you do Stefano. Gracie mille.
but next year it will be in Brussels. It will be even better 🍻😉
