So I wrote this<\/a> description on the AgileWorks community website. It is not the best one, but it was something to start with. After the first “Code and Beer” I changed it with this<\/a> description.<\/p>\n I made reservations at a Pub for 14 people, even though we had 18 people registered. I arrived there a couple of minutes late and there were only 4 guys waiting for me. I said we should wait a bit for the others, which is annoying, a couple more came and I started to do the ritual Sandro taught me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n The first surprise was that only two of 3 people had a laptop on them (one of them was me). It seemed that chatting and having a beer was the preferred way of spending the evening.<\/p>\n For me it was a really good timing to repair my Eclipse installation on Ubuntu. I needed to delete all the installation files. In the process I learned how to delete files in bash using a regular expression. Nice stuff, I really think it is very useful. Many thanks to Dan Serban<\/a> for teaching me this simple and useful tool.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, even if there was not a lot of coding going on, we had a good exchange of knowledge and ideas, some of which you can see in the comments of the meet-up here<\/a>. All in all I think it was a successful event, which does not need a lot of attention, or energy. You just need to know how many people will come and to make reservations to a pub. Then, everyone will know what to do \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n So, because the first edition was a success, “Code and Beer” will happen in Bucharest on Tuesday, every two weeks.<\/p>\n Many thanks to Corey<\/a> and Sandro for giving me this idea of informal and free of schedule gathering.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/blog.adrianbolboaca.ro\/wp-content\/plugins\/dpabottomofpostpage\/apixel1x1.jpg\"){kind=tracking}
