It’s full on hot and humid outside, we’ve seen some crazy thunderstorms the last few days, and the city seems quieter than usual. Guess that means it’s officially August in Washington, DC. But if you happen to be in town this week, there are some great tech events on the calendar. The ones the caught our eye are below, and you can find a full listing over at DC Tech Events. Have a great week!
