Event Guidelines
At #LearnHack, the community is the event and the organising team works extremely hard to create welcoming spaces where everyone has a good time. We therefore ask you to adhere to these simple event guidelines:
Human relations:
Be excellent to each other.
Be patient.
Be helpful to those who are less techie than you.
Be helpful to those who are less design-focused than you.
Be extra nice to the Mentors and Facilitators. They have worked extremely hard to make #LearnHack happen.
Respect people's privacy: ask for permission before you take photos and share them on social media.
Contribute something positive to the event. Make yourself useful. Your efforts will be much appreciated.
Teach someone something.
Learn something from someone else.
Help the Facilitators keep the venue clean and tidy.
Bring your own drinking vessel to avoid creating unnecessary rubbish.
Label your equipment and cables, so you don't lose them.
Space relations:
If you see rubbish, even if it’s not your own, please pick it up and bin it.
Try not to spill your drinks, especially not on other people’s equipment.
Watch out for trailing power cables - please don’t trip anyone up with your equipment.
You’re the curious type. That’s why you’re here. Great. But please refrain from hacking...
the coffee machines
any equipment that is not yours
the local wifi
other attendees' phones or laptops
other people's websites
...unless you have explicit permission to do so. [If in doubt, speak to one of the friendly Facilitators]
Finally, please consider the environment: try to avoid waste.
