If I’m going to be subjected to Rammstein & Laibach numbers as part of my mental earworm soundtrack, I’m damn well going to incorporate references to it in the posts.<\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most of the Dev Summit is, I suspect, of no real interest to y’all, so I’ll skip it. Plus, I have to do a presentation on it once I’m back at work, so I’ll recycle that for a blog post.<\/p>\n

It’s made for some long days.
\nOn the plus side, there’s been interesting content, the standout being some folks from ESRI Netherlands who made the REST API entertaining.
\nAlso, there’s a lot of coffee, and we got lunch. 😁<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The ESRI UK mob went out for dinner on Tuesday night, and after a couple of false starts (booked for a party of 200, crowded with a two-hour wait), we ended up at a Vietnamese place which turned out to be pretty good.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wednesday night was a conference\/summit dinner: 300 people at an enormous German beer hall, with ‘traditional’ music (someone in a hostel once referred to schlagermusic as being this awful thing in Germany, and I think this is what they meant) <\/i>, litre steins of beer, and enormous plates of meat.
\nAll while people sat on benches at long tables, and folks in costume did the serving.<\/p>\n

I suspect that it’s a loving re-creation of a traditional thing from a completely different part of the country, and which maybe never existed in the first place?<\/p>\n

In any case, t’was a fun night out, and I was able to spot the exact point to stop drinking & go back to the hotel; Always nice when that happens.<\/p>\n

I did take pictures, but as they show folks who aren’t me at a nominally private event, I’m not 100% sure about posting them on a public blog<\/i>, so I<\/i> won’t.<\/i><\/p>\n

Today (Thursday) is the last day of the event, and there were some fairly fragile-looking folks in evidence, and a much more subdued vibe after the party of the night before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
