Hackathon

And we're going to talk about that.

The War Game has been part of the Emerging Technologies Conference here in Washington, D.C. Something unique about this conference is how they bring in industry, government, and academia to do interesting activities like the Hackathon and the War Game.

So, without further ado, Jay.

I'm 13 and I built a global hackathon for teens with almost no budget.

Horatio, by pair, TLDR.

I'm 13 and I'm a student living in Hanoi.

Seven weeks ago, I thought, should I create a hackathon? Today, that same idea has turned into a free, online hackathon for ages 13 to 18 with around 50 registrants from 15 countries, with over $10,000 worth of prizes and four judges.

Here's what worked in my process, what failed, and what it takes to run such an event for people my own age.

A few days ago, I sent a message to a stranger on Discord inviting him to my hackathon.

He replied that, well, he was only just starting to learn Unity, but then said something that really surprised me.

I was involved in a scribe which was done by another company and I also wanted to make an LLM that helps the patient after the visit.

So the trip to San Francisco had nothing to do with Hackathon.

It was just like, you know, to learn.

But then like a few days before I see this ad on Twitter, Anthropic organizes a Hackathon.

And I was using Cloud Code for the past year and I was absolutely obsessed about how it works.

And funny thing, the finale actually coincided with the time that I will be in SF.

And it's usually limited to just one very specific problem as well.

But today's hackathon is all about uh there's this one really cool project that um one a had hosted a while ago they were um it was a local ai event and they solved the problem of blackouts during emergency emergency situations where you know they deploy joint drones out and send signals back to tell firefighters where to go so It's crazy how people can build such a huge project in one day.

And that's what I think is crazy about Hackathons.

People can build this and at the same time build community because you're not just scanning people's LinkedIn QR codes like a regular event, right? You're actually collaborating with the person and frantically running up to the organizer asking questions.

So I think this is a big, big, big, big part of events, especially with community building.

So here is the one-stop guide to the Microsoft CODIS program for India, 4.
