NYCBUG lunch happening momentarily
Not today, but for future Fridays: eat lunch with NYCBUG. Say something if you can attend.
Update: I misinterpreted, I thought it was reoccurring weekly starting next week, but it happened today. I was working and couldn’t get to it. I think it’s the equivalent meeting for this month, instead. Somebody from NYCBUG set me straight if I’m still wrong.
