good evening fam,

Hey guys, we’re into a new week of summer once again. If you’re reading this, you’re still alive, your computer still works, and the AI hasn’t reprogrammed you into an automaton to serve at the feet of the singularity. Congratulations. That means you can go to events this week!

With things heating up and people on vacation, there’s generally less tech events this week, but still a lot of nice ones to check out. Also, plenty of summer fun to do, so hit the beach when you get the chance!

Thanks for reading, Minh Do

P.S. Btw, please feel free to share this newsletter with your friends in LA!
