Hackathons
Things built against the clock, and the events I help run.
About this system
A hackathon is a deadline with snacks. I have competed in two: HackGT 13, where my team took on the NSA’s HEARSAY challenge, and the Corgi Hackathon at Y Combinator’s Startup School. The third I help organize: Cal Hacks 13.0, with Hackathons @ Berkeley.
