Astoria Tech Meetup #11 - "Never rewrite your code again"

Hello fellow Astorians!

Our 11th meetup is coming up at The Strand Smokehouse, right by the Broadway station. So whether you're in tech or just interested, come on by.

This month we're welcoming Peter Berg, resident of Astoria and founder of Forward who will be giving a talk titled, "Never rewrite your code again".

Peter's talk will touch on techniques he's used to manage and help engineers achieve maximum productivity and growth. As the former CTO of multiple startups, Peter has years of experience in developing engineers and scaling out technical teams. So if you are a senior developer or just breaking into the industry, come out to hear his secrets!

After the talk, we'll go over the progress of our community projects, and plan next steps. Maybe we'll even come up with a few new ideas!

6:30 - 7:15: Quick discussions (submit & view topics online*), show-and-tell of projects
