技术聚会已经过时了吗？

我跟一群刚毕业的年轻人一起工作，我们讨论了如何避免技能退化。我说：“你们可以去参加当地的聚会啊。” 他们都在纽约（我现在在佛罗里达），说那边没什么活动了，我简直不敢相信。问了几个在那里住了更久、经验更丰富的朋友，他们说这些活动在新冠疫情期间都消失了，而且再也没回来。
我以前在很多地方跑过或者帮忙组织聚会，比如我的家乡巴西、波士顿，后来是费城。我们以前开玩笑说，在费城，一周里每天晚上都可以靠披萨和可乐解决晚饭，因为聚会实在太多了。你可以认识很酷的人，看到大家分享经验，建立人脉，同时还能交朋友。疫情期间我们搬到了佛罗里达，有了孩子，所以我就没怎么参加聚会了，但我不知道情况竟然这么糟糕。
这些年轻人要怎么认识其他从业者，建立人脉，甚至通过演讲来展示自己呢？

I work with a bunch of people that just left college and we were discussing how to avoid deskilling and I said "well, you could go to local meetups". They're in NYC (I'm in Florida right now) and said there isn't much going on and I couldn't believe it. Asked some more experienced friends that have been living there for longer and they said that it all died during COVID and never came back.<p>I ran or helped organize meetups in multiple places, back in Brazil where I'm from, Boston and then Philadelphia. We used to joke you could have pizza and coke for dinner every night in PHL during the week for the number of meetups we had. You'd meet cool people, see people sharing their experiences, build your network and make friends all at the same time. During COVID we moved to Florida and got kids so I kinda got out of the loop with meetups, but I had no idea it was this bad.<p>How are these kids going to meet other practitioners, build their network and even put themselves out there by presenting?
