Tech is filled with neurodivergent people who don't do well in loud crowded spaces, get overwhelmed by too much social activity at once, and find the constant onslaught of sensory stimulus to be overwhelming. Where are the conferences that cater to this demographic?https://twitter.com/vmbrasseur/status/1108828023707467776 …

I’ve heard about invite-only academic retreat/conferences at rural locations. That sounded nice.

I’ve thought for a while about just getting large airbnbs for long weekends, to mix interesting people together and see what happens. Maybe short term rentals like what I have in PT and inviting people to spend a couple weeks at a time.

We've talked about doing this too. Honestly any such weekend would give the participants infinitely more than they'd get at a conference, right?

Well you’d get something different from intentionally crafted, small groups than from chance encounters among people who show up.
