Good article, though at the end of every interview I've led, I always ask if the candidate enjoys going to Dev meetups, or has side projects. It doesn't matter, but I love seeing general enthusiasm for their craft. I've worked with developers who admit they "just feel in to it", and it generally showed in their work...
Sure, I'm 100% agree with you, I also enjoy visiting meetups or conferences. But it's slightly different I think, I can visit these events for different purposes - education or just networking. But I do it because I want to do it, not because someone expects me to do that.
