Find tech events in Manhattan/Brooklyn and show up for the free food and soak up as much as you can from the people giving talks.

You'll meet people who might be hiring, or maybe their company is hiring. And even if you don't, you'll be learning cool shit and eating free food!

Adding to this: the Bitcoin center in NYC has (or had, it's been some time) Satoshi Square every Monday & Thursday, which is a meetup/trading event. Free entry, free pizza, free bar.

I think the scene has died down a bit, but if there's even a fraction of the energy left you'll have a good time and make a few solid business connections.

This really helps, thanks! Take care
