I'll be in NYC again from October 26-Nov 2. Reply in thread if you'd like to organize an FoC get together. 🙂

We had a pretty fun get together in DUMBO recently. It was pretty low-stakes and very friendly. I’d be up for doing that kind of thing again!

I’m also in Williamsburg. Dumbo was good too. I’m glad this group has such a Brooklyn lean.

I’m free Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights.
Leaning towards Sat/Sun–other nights have flexible arrangements.

Depends on time but probably Sunday night would be best for me.

Last time was scheduled from 6pm - 9pm-ish. It didn't feel like too much time, and different people came a bit later or left a bit earlier.

Brooklyn is great for me. Excellent Strangeloop talk @Jack Rusher

Fascinating. Which days are we thinking? So far. I'm free Nob 1 and 2, MAYBE Oct 27

Darn, @Rodrigo Tello, I can’t do those dates except Tuesday Nov 2nd, but maybe that’s Jack’s last day.

I'm flying out the 2nd, so an evening thing won't work for me that day, Should we try for around 1800, Thursday the 27th?

I'm in. Thursday 27th 1800 in Bk somewhere works. Randolph Beer was pretty good for a large-ish group last time, and we reserved a space. But for a smaller group there might be plenty of other options. Any suggestions from the Brooklyn familiars?
ps: there's a Randolph Beer in wburg too. Threes Brewing is another good option. Others are 65 Jay Street and Superfine (both DUMBO i think)

I've got the aforementioned meetup Thursday. Any other day work @Jack Rusher? Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon are all available on my end (coming from Park Slope) It is your visit and initiated event so maybe if you share the dates that would work for you, then we can tally up everyone else's availability with emoji reactions to try to optimize for the most people being able to attend.

Maybe a daytime thing on Sat/Sun?

I’m in. It could double as time to grieve, pour ones out, recite some Twitterbilly elegies.

Complicating factor: I won't show up for anything until I test negative for Covid, which is sadly not the case right now. Maybe tomorrow? We'll see.
Feeling better and past the CDC's recommended post-Covid waiting period. Anyone want to try for a meetup tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon?

I have a dog parade that I think is 1pm-4pm tomorrow

Jack Rusher

10/29/2022, 3:14 PM
... Sunday, late afternoon, post-parade ...
c

Cole

10/29/2022, 3:24 PM
Yeah, that sounds great to me (thanks!). I am guessing that the dog parade will be a sort of flexible thing with people coming and going, so I would be able to show up somewhere at 3:30pm or so. Obv, an FoC get-together could be scheduled some time before then 🙂

I have a thing on the UWS at 2:30, probably free closer to five-ish. Any chance we could convert to early food somewhere in Williamsburg?

Cole

10/30/2022, 4:53 PM
I can do that, too

Things are a little sidewise over here, timing is sliding later and less predictable on my side because of some hardware malfunctions with the prototype I'm going to check out. @Cole Do you want to try to get together for coffee at another point in the next few days? I don't want to hold you up with second hand flakiness today. @Paul Butler I'll see you Tuesday in either case 🙂
