TADHack 2024 runs 19-20 October.

This will be our 11th year of TADHack.

Thank you to the TADHack 2024 sponsors STROLID (vCon, resources are coming soon) and TSG Global (TNID). I’m hoping to add one more sponsor.

• vCon (STROLID) is the global standard for conversations.
• TNID (TSG Global) puts you in control of your personal, self-owned digital identity. They’re looking for help on the front end experience. TNID potentially solves the robocalling and SPAM SMS problem, its going to be big.

We recently had a chat with Raj Shivakumar about his summer internship with jambonz adding vCon (STROLID, one of this year’s TADHack sponsors). Raj was a vCon winner at TADHack Open in March, and from that win got a summer internship. Not only can you win cash prizes at TADHack, but also internships working on high profile open source projects. The chat is also a nice intro to vCon as well.

As a software student, contributing to open source projects is a great way to build a reputation, have an impact, and looks great on your resume. In fact, you may find it becomes your full-time business after graduation. Just make sure you graduate first.

Quoting Dave Horton, “TADHack is an excellent source of talent for open source projects, who come trained on the latest in programmable communications.” Dave considers this his ‘secret sauce’. Check out this YT Short from Dave on this topic.

Go to TADHack, most ‘locations’ will be online this year, the exception is Sri Lanka. Register for the sponsors’ resources, and we will keep you up to date. You’re going to learn important technologies, and have fun doing it.
