Then came the closing of the Bitreich Con 2023. As it seems, everyone is
happy about the new format and how it evolved. People were full of ideas.
The plan is to make the hackathons a short format for announced dates, to
concentrate people on those topics and let all brains work together to
get bitreich forward.

All visitors and viewers, thanks!

Next Bitreichcon 2023 will be in Vitre, France, at josuah's place. It
could happen, that the position will move. The date will be voted on, as
you know the process.

## Acupuncture / TuiNa

(uncut audio, sorry at the end technical failure)

Due to planning and practical concerns, we then did the acupuncture and
TuiNa (Chinese manual therapy) talk. First we had the manual TuiNa course
for various simple medical conditions, where the manual therapy can be
tried. Any serious issue has to be treated by a doctor.

Sorry, there was a technical issue with the recording. While showing the
TuiNa move, I smashed into the microphone. All descriptions are on the
slides.

After that self-training, we went down into the practice, so all
participants got a free acupuncture over 30 min. The participants all
felt refreshed and less constricted.

## Visiting Leipzig

Due to the wish of the participants, we then visited Leipzig. On the way
there we visited the biggest moving machine on earth: Brown coal diggers.
Then the group got a free tour through the historical inner city of
Leipzig, visiting the main train station, mayor's hall, Auerbach's Keller
(Goethe, Faust, Mephisto) and finally the Bach Museum.

At the Bach Museum we learned how Johann Sebastian Bach was doing
multiprocessing and multithreading in those processes on his organ while
orchestrating other processes on at least 23 cores. What a great man!

After this long and experiencing day, we wished all best luck and split
up, so we went happy and satisfied home.

Thanks to all people coming to brcon2023! This was a great event!


Sincerely yours,
