Technology, humanity, Weezer and Jared Leto.
Just some of the attractions coming to Silicon Valley Wednesday and Thursday, hoping to kick-start the fall tech conference season with a bang.
Techmanity, a first of its kind conference, will feature in-depth talks with, among others, Leto, the "Dallas Buyers Club" actor and tech investor, and Gavin Newsom, the lieutenant governor of California and author of "Citizenville."

There will, of course, also be concerts, featuring Weezer and Thievery Corporation. One of the goals of Technmanity is to prove that the South Bay is deserving of tech conference love as much as San Francisco.
The whole thing kicks off Wednesday afternoon at 2 p.m., and runs through Thursday afternoon. For purposes of disclosure, I'll be interviewing Lt. Gov. Newsom Thursday at 10:30 a.m.
