Tips for running an online conference
I think I got started running conferences in 2002 when I helped with Open Source Weekend 2003. The next year, I started BSDCan. Three years later, PGCon start. All up, I think I’ve run at least 32 conferences, two of which have been online: BSDCan 2020 and PGCon 2020.
This article was planned before the conferences were held. There have been requests to share what we did, why, and how it went.
This is still the first draft, and for the most part is a brain dump of everything I can remember.
In general, I will refer to BSDCan, but unless otherwise noted, such references can also be to PGCon.

Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility.
