    So has anyone ever went to one of these? Second one I have been invited to. Tempted to go to see what it's about. Thought I'd ask around here to see if anyone has went. If I can't go I'd be willing to give my ticket up to whomever wants it. This particular one is aimed at backend devs.

    Having looked up hackerx on the Google machine I admit to being intrigued and jealous...

    How does one get themselves onto the invite list for such things?

    Honestly Baz I don't have a clue. Sure if I can't make it I will give you my ticket.

    I got one via LinkedIn at the end of last year. I'm guessing they trawl for certain in-demand skills via keyword matching or by checking out what groups/interests you have listed.

    I'd be curious to hear what happens if anyone goes.
