This weekend, I had the pleasure to give a workshop about [radare2]( http://rada.re ) at the
[grehack]( https://grehack.fr ), along with my friend [skia](https://libskia.so/b/grehack-2016.html),
who did a [Radare Summer of Code](http://radare.org/r/rsoc.html) to improve structures support.
We'll try to open more seats next time, since a lot people wanted to attend it,
despite the fact that apparently, another workshop [had free
alcohol](https://twitter.com/pi3rre/status/799613519532593154).

Due to the unexpected cancellation of a speaker, I was asked if I could do a small
talk (15 minutes) about radare2, so I prepared a *classic* one, showing slides,
presenting the tool, yadayada, but [guedou]( https://twitter.com/guedou)
(the cool guy that did the [scapy](https://github.com/secdev/scapy) talk/workshop)
convinced me, during the speaker's diner,
that I should do a cool demo instead. Thanks to the
[chartreuse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartreuse_(liqueur)) and the red wine,
it sounded like a really great idea! So I spent a non-negligible portion of the night writing
slides, and apparently, people enjoyed me telling poor jokes while trying to
make my demo work on stage.

You can download the workshop material (slides, binaries, exploits, …)
[here]({static}/files/grehack_2016.tar.xz),
and as usual, free free to drop on [#radare](irc://irc.freenode.net/radare) if you
have questions, ideas, bug reports, …

Also, this year, [Tetrane](http://www.tetrane.com/en/index.html) was sponsoring the event,
and had a booth in the hall. I almost worked for them two years ago,
and had one of the best job interview in my life. It was nice to finally
meet them in person: those guys are super-great, their
[technology](http://blog.tetrane.com/2014/12/ie-crash-analysis.html)
is really interesting, and they are
[hiring](http://www.tetrane.com/en/careers.html) ;)

Many thanks to the Grehack organisation for inviting us, 
and for doing their very best to ensure the success of the event.
It was a great occasion to change one's mind
(and to understand how a 15EUR/person/night hotel can that cheap: feeling like a student again.).
