[SIGCIS-Members] Anyone at 4S in Hawaii this week and want to get together?

[thomas.haigh at gmail.com]

Hello SIGCIS,

 

Las month, with deep regret, I missed my first in person SHOT meeting  since
2002. A combination of other travel, family commitments and logistical and
financial hurdles caused by the last minute relocation combined to keep me
at home. So I did not get a chance to revive the old tradition of an open
dinner call for historians of computing.

 

However, thanks to an invite for a preconference workshop I do find myself
attending 4S for the first time since Rotterdam in 2008. Looking through the
program, it seems that there's even less history on the spectacularly large
program than there was fifteen years ago, so an initial skim through its
many pages did not turn up a huge number of familiar SIGCIS names. Though
there is, as you might expect, a lot of CHAT GPT and AI.

 

But if anyone on the list is attending and would like to join a group
meeting for dinner or drinks on one of the days then let me know. I'll not
send any more messages to the main list, but one we identify who, if anyone,
is interested we can exchange emails among that group to fix a time and
place that works.

 

Best wishes,

 

Tom
