Oh, Joy. Another Tech Conference.

Right, listen up, you lot. Apparently, some people *still* willingly throw money at TechCrunch’s Disrupt conference. This article – and I use that term loosely – is just a thinly veiled plea for more of your hard-earned cash. They’re dangling “savings” of up to $624 on passes if you buy them before… wait for it… less than four days are up. Four days! Like you haven’t wasted enough money already.

Basically, the price goes up after October 18th. They’ve got different tiers – Explorer (the cheap seats), Standard, and VIP (for those with more money than sense). They’re bragging about speakers and “networking” which is just a fancy way of saying ‘awkward small talk with people trying to sell you something’. There’s some early bird discount nonsense too. Honestly, it’s all marketing fluff designed to separate fools from their wallets.

If you absolutely *must* attend this circus, buy your ticket now, I guess. But don’t come crying to me when you realize it was just another overhyped event filled with empty promises and venture capitalists looking for the next unicorn to exploit. Seriously, use that money for something useful – like a decent firewall or maybe therapy.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Speaking of wasting money, I once had a user try to optimize a script that printed “Hello World”… using a neural network. A *neural network*. The resulting code took three days to compile and crashed the entire server farm. Some people just need to be stopped.
