What's been everyone's experiences/takes/opinions, specifically with not doing Hackathons? My org is moving them to quarterly-we used to have one yearly-I skipped the last one, probably going to skip the next one but I wonder how long that's going to last before someone in management sticks a head up and asks why I'm not participating (a question for which I have an answer ready to go)

(edit: and by "hackathon" because I realize there's a bit of room for ambiguity, I mean internal corporate Hackathons where the company "allows" dev teams to take a "break" from "regular" work in order to ideate and build new features and functionality that--if their idea gets chosen--becomes "regular" work in and of itself. It's those kinds of hackathons I've started removing myself from)
