Folks,

A colleague of mine from DuckDuckGo mentioned their hack day. It looks like various languages are represented in this hack day (there are duckduckgo slack channels, it seems, to co-ordinate the work on each language) in order to make it easy to look for answers to programming language related things.

In case someone is interested in participating, do see the links and contact info below.

Hi Viral, 

Can you please forward this to the Julia mailing list?  DuckDuckGo is hosting a global open source event on Saturday, August 29th, and we’d love to see participation from the Julia developer community!

The event will be hosted virtually and at meetup locations worldwide (look for the "29" label)
 
The purpose of the event is to improve results for developer-related searches by creating, “Instant Answers” via our DuckDuckHack platform.  
 
Here are a few examples:
 
Would love to see Julia related Instant Answers on DuckDuckGo.
 
If there are questions, please reach out to my colleague Zac Pappis (z...@duckduckgo.com)
 
Thanks,
Prakash
