Re: Free pass NANOG
Hi Update. A pass has just become available because one person who requested it can no longer attend due to a family emergency. Please let me know if you’re interested in taking it.

Re: Free pass NANOG
Hi everyone, I wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who responded to my offer of extra passes for NANOG. All the passes have now been allocated, and I’m really glad they’ve gone to people who can use them. I’ve been thinking about why this doesn’t happen more often. Most of the other sponsors are large corporations (judging by the logos), and I imagine giving away passes comes with a lot of internal procedures and legal checks that make it more hassle than it’s worth. LARUS is a midsize company, and honestly, I come from the tech community myself. I know how tough it can be to afford passes to events like this, so when I saw I had extras, it just felt right to share them. This wasn’t about making a big statement or setting an example. It’s just something I could do because I personally care, and I happen to run the company sponsoring the event. That said, I’m sure the other sponsors give back to the community in their own ways—it just looks different for everyone. Thanks again for being such an awesome and responsive community. Looking forward to seeing some of you at the event! -- Kind regards.

Re: Free pass NANOG
a not (IMHO) unreasonable proposed corrollary ... throughout the 21st century, humanity has also demonstrated that the purportedly maximally-efficient distribution of resources afforded by late-stage capitalism has rarely been accompanied by truly altruistic motives; and every capitalist across the spectrum should interrogate the parameters associated with deals that seem (perhaps superficially) too good to be true. steve ulrich ([email protected]) On Tue, Jan 14, 2025 at 20:51 Lu Heng wrote: > Hi there, > > Throughout the 20th century, humanity has consistently demonstrated that > the central distribution and redistribution of resources are ineffective. > > To clarify, the tickets that come with sponsorship are still tickets that > I have purchased as part of a package deal. > > Therefore, I have paid for those tickets and am happy to donate them to > those in need for free. > > It’s hard for me to understand why some people have an issue with that. > > > > > > On Wed, 15 Jan 2025 at 10:38, Christopher Hawker > wrote: > >> If, hypothetically speaking, I were a sponsor and I had spare tickets to >> an event that I didn't pay for or need and my intentions were truly >> altruistic, I'd return them to the event organiser so that they may >> distribute them (in line with my wishes of course).

Re: Free pass NANOG
Hi there, Throughout the 20th century, humanity has consistently demonstrated that the central distribution and redistribution of resources are ineffective. To clarify, the tickets that come with sponsorship are still tickets that I have purchased as part of a package deal. Therefore, I have paid for those tickets and am happy to donate them to those in need for free. It’s hard for me to understand why some people have an issue with that.

Re: Free pass NANOG
If, hypothetically speaking, I were a sponsor and I had spare tickets to an event that I didn't pay for or need and my intentions were truly altruistic, I'd return them to the event organiser so that they may distribute them (in line with my wishes of course). I wouldn't post to a public mailing list advertising that I was a sponsor and looking for people to give away tickets to. To be transparent, everyone is entitled to do with their tickets as they wish, and spend their money in whatever way they wish as is their right. This is simply what I would do.

Re: Free pass NANOG
Hi I am a capitalist and philanthropist who doesn’t believe in central distribution. So, no thanks. I will give to the person in need myself. And those passes aren’t “given”, I purchased them. For those need help I still have few left, PM me. -- Kind regards. Lu On Tue, Jan 14, 2025 at 07:42 Seun Ojedeji wrote: > Well said @Tom and Chris.

Re: Free pass NANOG
Lu, As @Tom<mailto:[email protected]> said, you'd be better off handing them back to your NANOG rep who can then allocate them to people who need it. They would be in the best position to allocate them where they may be needed, i.e. sponsoring someone to attend who otherwise may not have the capacity to purchase a ticket.

NANOG already has programs in place to assist students and others with meeting attendance.

Re: Free pass NANOG
If NANOG has given you meeting passes that you aren't using, the best thing to do would be to contact the NANOG staff member that gave them to you and let them know you no longer need them. NANOG already has programs in place to assist students and others with meeting attendance.
