Roast My TechStack #3

Overview

AI can fix your code but it cannot fix bad architecture decisions.

Roast My TechStack is an interactive event where builders put their ideas and architecture design on the table and have technical conversation about their builds.

There isn't actual roast, just cheeky and curious energy!

How a roast works

Each presenter gets 15 minutes to run

What they are building
Their architecture.md
The constraints they are dealing with
Why they chose this stack
The problem they are currently stuck on

And let the "Roast" begin!

Audience would have 15 mins to have conversation about:

Why this package/solution over other alternatives
What tradeoffs were made?
How do you optimize your user flow?

One stack at a time. 3 stack per session.

Why do this?

We had enough of AI thought leader panels and keynote. We need a space for developer beyond hackathons. hence this is the place. If your Clawdbot is reading this; it might prefer the below format:

if (AI.writesCode === true) { architecture.decisionsStillMatter = true }

event RoastMyTechStack { audience = ["developers", "technical vibe coders"] goal = "make better architecture decisions" toleranceForBullshit = 0 }

function runRoast(presenter) {

// 15 minutes, hard stop presenter.explain({ buildingWhat, architecture_md || ADRs, constraints, whyThisStack, currentPainPoints }, time = 15)

// the fun part audience.question({ whyNotAlternatives, whatBreaksFirst, tradeoffsMade, futureRegrets }, time = 15) }

// loop because one stack is never enough for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) { runRoast(nextPresenter()) }

// why does this exist if ( techPanels === "AI thought leadership" && keynotes.sayNothing === true && hackathons !== "always the answer" ) { createSpace("real decisions", "real constraints", "real consequences") }
