HOPE Conference Gets Wozniak, Mitnick, Biafra
Emmanuel Goldstein writes "We've gone through all of our submissions, and selected nearly 70 talks and panels for the next HOPE conference in New York City, to be held from July 9th-11th. We have Steve Wozniak, Kevin Mitnick, and Jello Biafra as keynotes, and many more interesting talks and seminars, plus a round the clock hacker movie room and a lockpicking workshop." The official website explains: " This is a conference by, for, and about hackers on as many levels as we can come up with, ranging from the highly technical to the down to earth, from computers to phones, from serious to hilarious. And our doors are open to anyone interested in what the hacker world has to say." We previously ran a story on this conference a couple of months back, before full speaker details were available.
that counts as intercontinental
I kid you not. I understand the generally knowledgeable makeup of the SF Bay Area, but don't take that to mean there aren't ignorant people. I haven't had to deal with ignorance and racism much in my life, and I was definately caught off guard when Wozniak's son told me to "go back to Iraq." For what its worth, I believe he was drunk at the time.
Think nothing is impossible? Try slamming a revolving door.
