On the 29th October, 12 freelancers got together in the Battle of Trafalgar pub in Brighton to talk all things tech, business, and the random things we’ve been doing recently.

This is some of what we talked about:

  • Local UX groups – UXUp, is UX Brighton a meet up still or only a conference?
  • Various routes to finding work
  • Trying to get financing for a SaaS product
  • Companies targeting fixing vibe coded projects
  • Code Llama
  • The various talks at Brighton AI
  • New phones and now laptops coming without chargers
  • Replacing “vibe coded” code as it’s a mess to work on
  • Vanguard pension funds
  • Fun interrailing around northern Europe
  • Brighton coworking spaces
  • VS Code and Brighton AI
  • Changing what you do as work

Thanks to everyone who came along!
