Picture it: it’s summer 2002 and you’re spending the afternoon at the house of one of the few friends you know who owns a desktop computer. The room is a mess of wires — ethernet and phone-line cables — and the computer loads up in MS-DOS, accompanied by metallic twangs and bursts of white noise […]
The following is a guest post from DrupalCon Vienna Marketing Committee.
When the Drupal community gathers, something extraordinary happens.
From 14 to 17 October 2025, nearly a thousand people came together at the Austria Center Vienna, Austria to celebrate open source, exchange ideas, and contribute to the future of Drupal.
DrupalCon Vienna 2025 was not only a conference, it was a living example of collaboration, diversity, and innovation in action.
A Community in Numbers
This year’s event welcomed 935 registered participants, with an impressive 96.04% check-in rate.
Interest in DrupalCon Vienna built steadily through the year, with the highest number of registrations coming in June (307) and September (236).
Due to the overwhelming number of anticipated brawls this Thanksgiving, we decided to streamline your day with an Official Family Thanksgiving Fight Schedule. This is a double-elimination tournament that will abide by UFC rules.1

This first fight will center around generational trauma and fruit salad. It will set the tone for the rest of the event.
TURKEY vs. CHEF
All Day / Kitchen
Though the turkey suffered a deadly beating last week in TURKEY vs. BUTCHER, it still has some fight left in it. This deceased bird will do everything in its power to ruin the chef’s credibility and sanity.

The disregard of radical uncertainty by a generation of economists condemned modern macroeconomics to near irrelevance … Keynes’ critique of ‘getting on the job’ without asking ‘whether the job is worth getting on with’ would prove to be as true of the new macroeconomic theorising as of the older econometric modeling … Over forty years, […]
Watch a UK-aired interview with Irish Republican Gerry Adams between 1988 and 1994, and pay attention to his delivery; the former politician’s voice, usually uninflected, has been replaced, and his mouth is moving out of sync with the audio, which is lagging. In October 1988, Margaret Thatcher banned the members and supporters of eleven Irish […]
In my Nov. 7 analysis of the Russo-Ukrainian War I missed two serious developments on the line of contact that I simply didn’t have the bandwidth to notice. After paying closer attention I came away with a big picture question: has Russia pierced the line of contact in three places or are my sources exaggerating? […]

REPORTER: I’m here live with Uncle Bill just moments after Thanksgiving dinner. Bill, can you walk us through what happened tonight?
UNCLE BILL: Sure, I mean, obviously, I’m not happy with the result. Before we took our places, I was informed I’d be sitting at the kids’ table, which, frankly, I think is a slap in the face given my history with this organization. Everyone likes to preach that we’re a family around here, and you just don’t expect to be treated this way by family. I respect the host’s judgment, but I disagree with the decision. I just tried to focus on the meal and do my best out there.
REPORTER: Were you given a reason as to why you were demoted?
