Why are we celebrating JawnCon like it's the second coming of tech innovation? Sure, it's a "hacker con" in Philly where a "jawn" can mean just about anything—but let’s get real. Are we really excited about a gathering that might just be a glorified excuse for tech geeks to show off their questionable coding skills? Last time I checked, hacking wasn’t just about breaking into systems; it was about creativity and problem-solving! If we’re going to put our energy into something, shouldn’t it be something that actually pushes the boundaries of technology instead of just another weekend of nerds sharing their secrets? Let’s hope this weekend surprises us, but I’m not holding my breath. https://hackaday.com/2025/10/07/jawncon-returns-this-weekend/ #JawnCon #Hackers #TechInnovation #PhillyEvents #TechCritique
