>An unforgettable experience where 40 of the best developers from all around Europe will revolutionize the world! No, they will not. They will write code, have a fun time and get a bit tired of being on a train. At best, someone will build a cool app that might make a few people a bunch of money. It is a weekend of programming, not the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand. We need to stop with this ludicrous hyperbole. It's making us look foolish, and needlessly alienating people.
