The meetup happened yesterday and we had a higher turnout that I was expecting (I made reservations for "6 to 12" and I think there were ~14 people) and I thought it was super fun, but I got the sense that better prediction/planning could have made it even better. I want to try a small experiment with this comment.
Please, anyone who attended, reply to this comment with an observation of something GOOD, BAD or INTERESTING. The idea is that we should try to repeat and retain the good stuff at future meetups, fix the bad stuff... and the interesting stuff doesn't have to be good or bad but it might grow into a practical intuition pump.
For comments responding to this, please do it like the monthly quotes thread, so if you noticed multiple things, make multiple comments so they can be voted up or down independently. I'll do three by way of example.
(If you were at the meetup but don't have an account you should all make an account and post something here, or at least vote on the other comments!)
BAD: The parking situation was a mess. There was "two hour limit" parking and garages that chaged $2 / 15 minutes. There were better places to park a little farther from the center of the neighborhood of the Brewpub, but it would have been good to know that they existed. For future reference, there was a parking lot at the corner of Weyburn and Hilgard that was $7 for the whole day.
I found a public parking structure just around the corner here with the first 2 hrs free and I believe $3 flat rate parking after 5pm that was a good deal.
