I understand you are not looking to make huge profits and I greatly appreciate the idea behind this and your sister program over at Data Science Retreat.
Unfortunately, I am a PhD researcher just finishing their thesis this summer so I would not believe that my financial situation will allow me to pay for both the retreat and living expenses.
Are the folks you attract mostly financially settled i.e. holding down real jobs?
I'm dead interested in this (just applied) and I'm definitely not financially settled - actually the opposite, finished a postdoc and am currently bootstrapping a startup. But the value of this looks amazing, so if I can put the funds together, I'm sure it'll be well worth it.
Short answer: There's a mix of people, and a few are students (college or graduate school). Some are remote coders. Some are doing startups. And some quit their jobs to come to Berlin. :)
