I host a small Discord for devs hacking on cool tech through my company (for an invite go to https://discord.multiprocess.io ). Folks here interested in compilers/databases/emulators/big data/ML are welcome to join, introduce yourself and hang out.
Fwiw discord was totally unwilling to let me in. 'Something is wrong', asked for an email then told me it was already registered, then asked for a date of birth and told me it's unauthorized.

#43There’s no COVID here so besides the 2-3 month lockdown last year I’ve been able to go to many in-person meetups like normal.
Virtual is _fine_ but for my personality meeting in person is still my preferred way by far. I can’t recommend moving here enough to anyone who needs a place to live a normal life and wait out COVID.

Genuine question, how is there normal life + no COVID there? I’m Australian (but stranded abroad) and thought we’d now run out of countries without it.

Also, spending time in basically any ‘red’ state in the USA can get you the same result. We’ve been living life as usual, almost no restrictions, since at least April of 2021. It’s nice, and believe it or not, the sky is in fact not falling. It’s not as hard as ‘they’ would like you to believe, to be smart & stay safe, while also leading a normal life.

Except for the “no Covid” part…
