Ask HN: What conferences are you looking forward to in 2018?

I always have a good time at conferences but often seem to miss out by not planning in advance, or not being aware of interesting ones and just sticking to conferences I'm familiar with. This year want to make an effort to be a bit more adventurous!

I've never been to either of these personally but I got tickets to both Rails Conf in Pittsburgh and Ruby Conf in Los Angeles. I am really excited for both of them. Obviously, I am a Ruby fan.

I'm looking forward to DEF CON in Las Vegas. I'm also hoping my employer provides us passes to RSA and JavaOne again this year.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for an AI/ML conference with good practical insights? (more for someone trying to build business line apps, not theory).

In the U.S. or South America.

I'm currently working on two submissions for the Linux Audio Conference which is going to take place in Berlin this year. It's a smaller conference, but it's a pretty neat niche.

I'm committed to going to one conference this year, and am trying to figure out which one to go to. Kind of considering TypeScriptConf in a month and a half although it's completely new.

RailsConf. Always good talks and good people.
