merge(happy_hour) -> open_inference

Keep the conversation going after Ray Summit and the vLLM Conference. A year ago, open weights were a cost play: worse performance, cheaper price. Intelligence is the product now, and companies want to own it and compound it inside their own walls. This is a night for that shift: owning your intelligence, staying open across hardware and models, and valuemaxxing every dollar and hour of infra. Join a select group of founders, engineers, and operators, and builders for demos worth watching, good conversation, and cold drinks in a room full of people who take tokens seriously.
