Is the karma checked at the door or is it at the time of submission? Seems like somebody could be at 12 and then post “actually I believe the general consensus on gravity is wrong” in the right thread the night before and roll in with 89 points
Would be interesting to join but have to get bit more karma :)
I think you will have enough after your message ;)
We're not too strict about that, please join!
let me help

I would've gladly joined if you hadn't decided on a service owned by Meta...
Would anyone be interested in meeting up in Rome? My contact's on my profile and I'm happy to organize.
Perhaps we could host it jointly in Milan and Rome?
Long shot, but if there is anybody reading this from Salzburg, lmk if you want to meet up!
Anyone who’d be interested in a meetup in Cologne?

I'd love to join, sadly I'm mainly lurking around here so I don't have the required karma.
Tell a bit more about yourself and maybe somebody would invite you as a +1?
We've been organising this for a while (a year? more?). It's quite relaxed - just a coffee morning every month or two.
I'm sure there are other HN local meetups who could post in this thread - please do if you have a local meetup
Excellent initiative, Cal! Thanks for organising
Please! Would love HN meetup in Berlin.
Make it happen, don't wait for someone else to do the work on your behalf :)
Too bad this requires using WhatsUp.
WhatsApp isn't really required. If you submit the form, we will email about about the date and location of the next event.
Any Meetups in NL? Im far from the Randstad, would've loved to host one otherwise
This is very cool. I’ve lived in Tallinn for a while so definitely would attend if it was ~5-ish years ago.
Is there any meetup in Paris?
Thanks for reminding me to attend this. I'll try to join the next one!

That is amazing. Back in Helsinki soon. <3
Nice. Does anyone know if a Stockholm group exists?
Not as far as I know. We can surely start one tho. I wouldn't mind just setting a spot and time, and then those who can just show or don't.
I can make a post about it promoting it.
64 karma requirement? Pfft. I’d go to a 1k min karma meetup tho ;)
You mean 1024 right?
You mean 1337 right? You are almost there, just need 20 more.

Ah, if only I were from Helsinki, I would have signed up.
