Some HN-exclusive backstory to the post: I wrote a long journal entry after attending the event mentioned in the post, back in April/May sometime. During this summer, I've read a ton of comments here on HN and also elsewhere, about there "not being any spaces for humans" anymore. Eventually somehow the two connected in my brain and I've been noodling on this post since then. Finally managed to put the two together in a somewhat coherent way, I think, and the results is what you've read :)
I'm really out of my league when it comes to writing about emotions, thoughts and feelings, so I guess this was somewhat of an attempt to get better at that, and also better at sharing those things with other people than just my partner and friends. I hope it doesn't read as too much ramblings!
