I went to the last one in DC. It was cold and rainy but everyone was in good spirits and having fun. Was great to be around all the other science needs. Got to hear Bill Nye speak in person.

I didn’t find out about this one until a couple weeks out. I could have still gone, but this time around I just don’t have the emotional strength to deal with everything going on and put on a good face for the sake of solidarity. I hope it was as good of an event this time and will be with them in spirit.

I don’t get why HP continues selling in the consumer market if they are struggling so much to make a profit.It seems like they are trying to force a business model on the wider market that doesn’t work.

The subscription model makes more sense in the B2B world where companies just want fixed costs without doing too much shopping around (for things like printer cartridges anyway).
