Build on Redis Hackathon

This is weird. Czech Republic (Czechia) is not in the list of eligible countries but every other of our neighbours is O.o. Including Slovakia and Austria which both are even smaller countries than Czechia by number of Residents. I wonder why this is.<p>Edit: Judging by the comment of required business email and gmail for example being blocked, I consider this hackathon somehow with their rules arbitrary and can&#x27;t consider this to be some kind of fairly judged hackathon for those prices.

How proficient do you have to be in Redis to have fun in such a hackathon? I use Redis mostly in combination with Python Celery.

They require you to use a business email address in order to enter the hackathon (gmail is blocked).

Why Italy is not on the list? Also this part &quot;Canadian residents must correctly answer a time-limited mathematical skill-testing question, if selected as winner, in order to claim prize&quot; what&#x27;s up with canadians and math?

I used Redis for a past project, Control My Lights. It&#x27;s pretty cool, very fast. Going to check this out more.

Anybody looking for a team member?

We&#x27;re gonna have six out of six men on a judging panel in 2021? Grim.<p>[Edited for downvoters: this is important because of natural biases in human judging, it serves as an automatic warning to women and other genders that they are unlikely to be treated fairly and suggests to them that they shouldn&#x27;t bother to participate.<p>If you can&#x27;t be bothered to find a single woman judge, how are you going to rate projects created and designed by or for women?]
