What is it?
Tuesday Hack Night
is New Orleans' premier weekly gathering for programmers, designers,
hardware hackers, and other technically minded folks. It's an
aggressively unstructured way to hack amongst peers, converse about
the vagaries of this or that methodology of developmental arts, or
simply to partake of delicious libations in delightful company.
There's no agenda, no presentations, no requirements, and hackers and
the hacker-curious of all levels are welcome to attend. However, we
do partner with other tech groups every week to expose attendees to a
variety of tech knowledge in the city.
Check out our partners as they present on a monthly rotation in
Ace Hotel's 3 Keys Room!

When and Where?
Our soirée happens
every week, on Tuesday, at 6pm!
We have found a permanent home at the
Ace Hotel New Orleans, located at 600 Carondelet St., New Orleans, LA 70130
There are occasional
special events
and
sponsored hack nights.
If you'd like to ensure your punctual notification of such occasions,
please join
the meetup or
register for carrier pigeon message service
so that we might send you telegrams.
It's my first time! What can I expect?
Naught but merriment, hacking, and chatter from 20-40 of your
favorite kind of people, milling about between some handy desks, a
comfortable sofa, and the libation-purveying establishment next door.
You should feel welcome to come, sit down, and
hack quietly amongst peers,
or just as welcome to come, sit down, and
argue about type systems.
Some of our most frequent members had a great experience when they
first arrived with
a question to ask:
"What kind of database should I use for this project?", or "Why should I care about type
systems?", or "I hear about this Ruby on Rails thing: how's it better
than PHP?" These questions, and many more, can be answered for you by
many of our attendees, often vigorously.
If you're shy, one of our fine greeters will be happy to introduce
you to like-minded wizards of analytical enginery, or non-like
minded, for the more pugnacious of you. Just walk up to one of these
fine people and say hello!
