I'm finishing up my time in Pittsburgh, at a hotel across the street from the Steel Building. It's hard to describe these cons. In the day, it's a mass of talks and new ideas and keeping up with work and hacking in the hallways. I got to translate English into English loanword for our Japanese guests. And at night, it's social events and board games into the wee hours. It's not that I want to go home tomorrow, but I think we all could really use the sleep.
