update Calagator::Event 1250465180 Portland Ruby Brigade monthly meeting Roll back

description ** Our Nov & Dec 2013 meetings will be at New Relic instead of our usual location, CrowdCompass ** PRE-MEETING DINNER at 6pm We'll have pizza, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations. PRESENTATIONS at 7pm: * Markus Roberts: Ruby Hangman * Robb Shecter lightning talk: Intellectual Property in a Nutshell * Davy Stevenson & Eric Hodel & Rein Henrichs: <a href="http://rubyconf.org/program#davy-stevenson-eric-hodel-rein-henrichs">Arrrr me hearty! Sailing the Seas of DRb in a Shoe</a> BEER & SNACKS at 9pm After presentations we'll have more socializing/pirating time with beer & snacks. ARRIVING BY BIKE? Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 28th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 28th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking. Thanks to New Relic for hosting this month! <em>ABOUT THE GROUP: The Portland Ruby Brigade, also known as pdxruby and pdx.rb, is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon area. The group welcomes all programmers interested in the language and its implementations, tools, libraries and frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails. The group has been meeting since August 2002 for presentations, demos and discussions. Every month 35-75 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for Ruby. If you'd like to present or have a topic you'd like discussed, please post to the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/pdxruby">mailing list</a>.

update Calagator::Event 1250465262 Rose City SPIN: The Tail that Wags the Dogma Roll back

description Free event! Networking @ 5:30-6:30 PM; Talk @ 6:30-7:30 PM <h3>Rose City SPIN Talk: The Tail that Wags the Dogma</h3> Presented by Rhea Stadick <h3>Abstract:</h3> It is a common pattern for advocates of any kind (Agile, Quality, Process Improvement methods, Waterfall, etc.) to start off banging a drum with almost religious zealotry. “This is the way to achieve quality!” “Follow me or be cast aside!” I have certainly done this and many of the change agents and forward thinkers I respect in the industry have struggled with this as well in their careers. However, riding a train of dogmatic viewpoints and practices has, in many cases, ruined the original efforts of change agents and more tragically, created bad patterns of development. This presentation (also recently presented at the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference earlier this year) will explore how we can clarify our intentions and work towards creating an environment where the people involved are empowered to think and experiment but still march in the same general direction. As product development becomes more and more complex, different approaches are needed to get to the right outcome and we can no longer afford to apply rigid methods that worked for a simpler environment. This presentation will help the audience think critically about where they are being too dogmatic in their efforts while introducing some new ways of thinking around complex adaptive systems and complex product development. The full paper written for this conference presentation can be found here: http://www.uploads.pnsqc.org/2013/papers/t-095_Stadick_paper.pdf <h3>Speaker Bio: </h3> Rhea Stadick is an Organizational Coach at Intel, Corp. She has spent the last eight years in software quality and development of engineering teams. Today she helps organizations across her company develop cultures and competencies to create thriving work environments that support excellence in product development. She received her B.S. in Computer Science from Oregon State University and M.B.A. from Willamette University. For the past several years she has organized the Rose City Software Process Improvement Network (SPIN) in the Portland-metro area that gathers professionals in the area to learn and network. <h3>A Special Treat from PNSQC</h3> Plan on coming early! In collaboration with the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference (PNSQC) the SPIN meeting will have pizza and pop provided by PNSQC beginning at 5:30 pm. PNSQC is the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference, a group of volunteers interested in Software Quality.

description nil → Topic: Scrum Must Die: Many teams over the last decade have moved to Agile Scrum development, but many have missed the key point of doing the adoption-Scrum and it's rituals are merely training-wheels for building a lasting Agile culture. In this topic, Ray Arell talks about how long-term dependency on Scrum can hinder the potential creativity and profitability of teams. Then he will look at successful patterns of how to use the framework to develop core skills and methods that, once the time-box is removed, will enable teams to deliver value daily. Finally, he will contrast the key challenges for teams stuck in the transition as well as key methods for moving forward. Bio: Ray Arell is Director of Intel Emergent Systems and Coaching. He is currently a transformative leader in the adoption of agile, Lean, and complex system methods inside Intel, and his group is currently coaching a community of practice of over ten thousand people that are moving to a continuous value delivery culture. Prior to this role, he spent several decades as both an engineer and engineering manager of teams focused on CPU, chipset, graphics, wireless, and software development. He is the coauthor of Change-Based Test Management: Improving the Software Validation Process and is a popular speaker at events worldwide.

Intel is one of the largest contributors to Linux. And it taking up a similar role when it comes to Android.</p> <p>Not only have Intel worked with handset manufacturers to ship phones running on Intel metal and more recently beginning to manufacturer ARM chips as well, but they've been contributors to Android's open source software. They have a ton of tools that developers can use.</p> <p>We're pleased and lucky to have Daniel Holmlund, an engineer working for Intel's Android developer relations, here in Portland to give us an overview of Android development and projects to which Intel contributes. They'll talk what developers need to be aware of when moving an application to an Intel Android devices, and the software tools that Intel creates to analyze and optimize Android applications.</p> <p>In addition, Intel will be giving away t-shirts and you can <strong>enter a raffle to win a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3</strong>. You must be present to win.</p> <p><i>Editor's note: one of the best tricks we've learned for Android development is to use the Intel emulators because they run faster on our Macs than the ARM-based emulators do. We've found it worthwhile to pay attention to what Intel is up to on Android.</i></p> <h3>About <a href="http://twitter.com/Agnathan">Daniel Holmlund</a> </h3> <p><img alt="Daniel Holmlund" src="http://mobileportland.com/sites/default/files/daniel-hat.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0 10px 10px 0; height: 125px; width: 125px;"> Daniel Holmlund has been a software developer for more than 14 years.
