Wow. What a weekend, such a joy to watch the documentary & look back on Assemble.

42 hours, 183 teenagers, & mischief to be made. Assemble was the first major high school hackathon since the pandemic, organized by a team of teenage Hack Clubbers in @figma's San Francisco HQ. 🎥 Watch the brand new 6-minute documentary: youtube.com/watch?v=PnK4gz… 👇🧵...

Inside a High School Hackathon: Assemble, August 2022



Cal Hacks 12.0 was insane! I'm super proud of the whole team for pulling it off :D We had 3.3k hackers and 700 projects were shipped - that's double last year's Cal Hacks! Plus we did it all at the Palace of Fine Arts w/ great food, a silent disco, and beautiful designs.

Truly inspired to see thousands of builders creating the future at @CalHacks 12.0. We never imagined it would be getting bigger and better each year, over a decade after 1.0. Really enjoyed our chat @zoink!

So awesome to meet so many incredible builders — and hear about their excitement for the future — at @CalHacks today!

I met my closest friends in high school on @hackclub Slack. Nearly a decade later, I know them irl in SF, building incredible careers. That Slack is an archive of thousands of brilliant young ppl’s early days. @SlackHQ: stop rent-seeking & support the coolest thing on the web!

Slack is threatening to shut off a big nonprofit teen coding community @hackclub (which is amazing and which I’ve helped for years) with just 3 days to migrate off. This would strand thousands of of the world’s smartest future coders. They are asking for $50k (a surprise 60x…

We’ve done it! Check us out: github.com/hackclub/hcb. Taking a seven year old codebase and getting it ready to be public was a massive project.

Open sourcing HCB has been years in the making; today's the day: github.com/hackclub/hcb! We're all about transparency w/ our finances, it only felt right to do the same with our code.

The in-house version of Expensify we built for @HackClubHCB has almost crossed a million dollars in reimbursements paid out! Pretty cool.

My friends are I are trying to do something crazy this summer: we're going to do a roadtrip around the country and run a hackathon in 50 cities! We're trying to figure out how exactly we do this; if you want to help out / sponsor, lmk! summer24.xyz
