I just need to be so honest about this one here. After the good words I had to say about Tech Pulse yesterday, I am extremely disappointed by this Chicago Data Night. This was the worst Chicago Data Night I have ever attended. But, before getting into that, I want to talk about getting there! This was my first time taking the Metra! It was great, really simple. I got on the Van Buren station and had a Metra worker help me out.
Tech Pulse 2030! AI 2030! Quantum + AI 2030! Big buzzwords 2030 lol. Honestly, this one was better than any of the other Tech Pulses I have attended. Let me tell you about it.
My day started off at the Starbucks across the street, because I was early. I got this Ube foam something that was pretty good, but pretty expensive honestly. I finished writing up my blog post for the Strong Towns event.
I spent my Monday afternoon taking a nice walk up to the Near North Side. I cross the bridge over the Chicago river, passing all the landmarks I commonly go by on North LaSalle: The Super McDonalds, LaSalle Flowers, The Moody Campus, Christ the Savior. I saw a man being arrested at the gas station across the street from the Super McDonalds, they had like 5 cop cars, he must have done something bad or CPD was bored.
