Running a software jam in a world of slop
I'm Fox. I'm a 16 year old, and I've been working mostly working on making projects I thought were cool & would do well on the internet over the last year. You can check out my other blog posts if you want to get a sense of what that means: https://foxmoss.com/blog>. Hack Club noticed these projects and thought I would be well suited to run an event. This was my reaction, I wanted to make something that could encourage the same competition as well the feedback I get from places like HN and appreciate well made projects. Hack Club does a good job at throwing money at people who make projects, but a iffy job at rewarding hard work. I wanted to change that. Radish Jam https://radish.hackclub.com/> was my reaction to that, and this blog post goes through my thought processes in logistics. How something similar could be run again either by another Hack Clubber or an adult looking to run something for similar for adults :) Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48698188 Points: 2
