One of the things I'm grateful for, as we've moved forward to better times after two difficult years of the COVID-19 pandemic, is the return to offline communities. I have always thoroughly enjoyed meeting and interacting with people in tech. Offline communities, however, are facing a new disease these days. I say this in the context of regional tech communities around me, but this isn't just any small disease. It did start as a joke, but has been spreading really fast among members of the tech community. This dangerous little disease that I am talking about is the Fear Of Missing Out or FOMO.
