Re: Contemporary dance performance about gender at European Rails Conference
#3The word "Contemporary" always makes me cringe a little. It's such a fancy synonym for "Now".
Anyway, I love ballet myself. I did ballet when I was a little boy (for about 8 years). I like going to ballet. Especially when my sisters perform in it. BUT this might be too much of a good thing. But, pff, who cares right? I hope you guys enjoy it! Fok all them haters.

"Contemporary dance" is actually the name of the dance technique: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contemporary_dance

Sigh. I was worried I'd see this comment when I clicked "discuss". Look, I think having a dance performance at your tech conference is a bit silly. But so what? It's definitely not actively bad, it's not like it's somehow mandatory if you attend the conference, and a lot of people there might like it. Also, you seem to be saying, "this is a tech conference; no girl stuff allowed!" Just relax; not everything at every conference needs to revved up on testosterone.

#7So what exactly are these conferences for?
I was slightly supicious anyway - information about most tech is only a few clicks away these days so I'm not convinced they're a necessary part of an engineer's ongoing education. But now there are dance performances? And people get sent to these things on work time/money?

It's a performance for all developers who will be in Krakow (where both conferences takes place) around that time. It's an additional thing for those who want to experience art and boraden their perspective. Read the post, it explains it all, thanks!

Hi, you may have misunderstood. I wasn't asking why there is a dance performance, though that does feed into it. I was asking what the conferences themselves are for. Why would I go to one or pay for an employee to go to one?
