Rubber Duck Dinner
Sponsored by Superpower
Every engineer knows the trick: you explain your problem to a rubber duck and halfway through, you hear how dumb it is and fix it yourself.
This is that but the duck is a room full of cracked engineers, and they talk back.
Bring a take, a question, a half-formed theory, a thing you can't stop thinking about - consciousness, taste, whether your startup is cooked, the thing you believe that you can't say at work. Say it out loud. The room debugs it. Sometimes that means a better idea. Sometimes it means getting roasted. Both are the point.
No panels. No slides. No "so what do you do?"
One rule keeps it good:
Steelman or STFU: you can't tear down an idea until you've made its strongest case first.
To get in, answer one question: what's the take you'd bring to the duck?
Best answers get in. Capacity is small on purpose.
