"HuggingFace" might be the worst name I've ever heard of for an organization.

Cockroach was deemed worse by more people, but the company continues to succeed and haters dies off

MongoDB is the worst name in my opinion.

It makes me crazy too. It reminds my of Hugin[0], which is a library for panorama stitching of photos. Somehow it's too close to that in my brain and neither really makes sense or sounds good.

A lot of interesting people who are working on OSS AI will be there. Whom do you wanna meet? Is there any person we should invite particularly?

Is the event totally full? I'm in the Mission but I guess I missed the earlier announcements. I'll keep an eye out for future events!

It's weird when people call the city "SFO". My first thought was, why is it in an airport?

It's optimal IMO. Anything shorter is too ambiguous, anything longer is longer than it needs to be.

You think "SF" is ambiguous compared to SFO?
