Ceci n’est pas une dystopie. Comment l’Université se vend à l’Entreprise. Immersion dans l’enfer ludique d’un #hackathon

https://lundi.am/IMG/arton4490-resp1280.jpg?1638608670#.jpg

Dans une salle de stade, zone VIP, un lundi matin, un animateur, jeune, grand, beau, cheveux bruns gominés, boucle d’oreille, costume bleu, harangue une foule d’étudiants.

Tous ont reçu, à l’entrée, des sacs en tissu blanc sur lesquels on lit, en bleu et quatre polices différentes, le slogan suivant : « Étudiant & entrepreneur. Il n’y a point d’entrepreneur sans un grain de FOLIE ». Au-dessus du slogan, une tête souriante qui louche (la « FOLIE », sans doute). Un sac à goodies qui contient un cahier « Pépite » (couverture : « Ecrire c’est organiser le bordel les idées que l’on a dans sa tête »), un stylo de l’Université de X., une gourde de l’Université de X., un bracelet d’une entreprise locale, cartes et dépliants divers.

Une centaine de sacs pour une centaine de Jeunes. Étudiants. Mais surtout Jeunes.

Je suis là, moi aussi, plus très jeune, ou alors je ne l’ai jamais été. Tout dépend de ce que l’on entend par Jeune.

L’Université de X., que je fréquente cette année, nous oblige, mes jeunes camarades de Master 2 et moi, à participer à un hackathon. « EC2 Module hackathon – coeff. 1 », lit-on sur la maquette de l’Université.

A hexagonal-centered toroidal 1.053-bounded regular tetrahedral simplex chain, discovered at the Mathathon by Nathan Gilbert.Two weekends ago, something rare happened. Thirteen people, sharing only a common interest in math, joined together from India, the Middle-East, England, Canada and the United States to solve real math problems. As might be expected, most of them dropped out before the end of the first-ever Mathathon weekend. Nonetheless, the four active participants, aided by two or three less active observers, solved some very real problems.Perhaps there has never been an all-virtual math hackathon devoted to solving problems carefully prepared ahead of time not to be exercises but to be “real” problems, whose solutions were only dreamt of by their authors.

That event, which was sponsored by #cloudinary, comprised 15 teams, whose members were undergraduates from Ashesi and other universities in Ghana. The goal was to create an environment in which the competing teams, regardless of skill, could huddle for 24 hours, during which they would brainstorm for ideas and build apps with real-world APIs. The prizes were GH₵ 1,000, GH₵ 600, and GH₵ 400 in cash for the first-, second-, and third-place winners, respectively.A Cloudinary representative [myself] was present at the hackathon to mentor the teams and to show them how to (...)

Earlier this year, I decided to leave my job. While exploring new opportunities, I came across and became interested in a company that specializes in digital asset management (DAM), called Cloudinary. Happily, after a few rounds of interviews, both technical and nontechnical, I received an offer and joined the company in June as a full-time developer evangelist.My ramp-up plan was straightforward: Spend two weeks in Cloudinary’s office in Tel Aviv, Israel and meet the team there: engineers, product managers, senior executives. Out of pure luck, on the first day of my visit, Cloudinary hosted an internal hackathon, “Hack Outside the Crop,” in which I participated. It turned out to be a gem of an experience.Two things struck me soon after I’d spent some time in the Tel Aviv office. One, (...)

When the pitching ended, the room fell silent.

Wallifornia HackathonHackathons can be a transformative experience for any new developer. Why? Because they provide a tangible real-world opportunity to build something from scratch and then “ship” a minimum viable product (MVP) in less than 24 hours. On the line are cash prizes, industry connections, and the bragging right to say I did this!In fact, it’s a kind of rite of passage most developers put themselves through at least once in their career. Those 24 hours can be both exhilarating and frustrating for new developers as, for the first time, they learn how to work with a team, get acquainted with new APIs, and then make critical choices about what features to include in the final product.Cloudinary recently sponsored the #wallifornia #musictech Hackathon in Liège, Belgium.
