Vic is working hard and succeeding at building a family-style environment for travelling hackers. Reminds me of the Facebook house in that movie The Social Network. I came for a Python conference and there were many international travelers here for the same reason. Lots of laptops out around the dinner table, people talking about things they were building, made me really motivated! Sleeping accommodations are hostel-style bunk beds, the house was full and a little crowded, but that's part of the fun.
