Hello Reagents!
We are having another casual/drinkup meeting to prepare for our first official meetup(s) in Jan/Feb. To keep the conversation focused we're trying to limit the attendance to about 20 people, so [please RSVP here](http://www.meetup.com/Portland-ReactJS/events/218898581/).
We will be discussing what our plans are for the initial meetings starting early 2015. Please bring your thoughts with you. If you can't make it, or would like to get the discussion started now, please use the comment/conversation [on the meetup page](http://www.meetup.com/Portland-ReactJS/messages/boards/thread/48519843).
Thanks, look forward to seeing you next month! |

VetsinTech Portland - Launch of VetCap!!
Roll back
| description |
VetsinTech is kicking off an innovative national program to help veteran entrepreneurs called VetCap (capital for veterans). VetsinTech is an independent non-profit organization made up of technology industry leaders and veterans with a mission to help train, connect and find jobs for veterans interested in technology careers.
VetCap is a new initiative for a national series of workshops to help train veteran entrepreneurs on where and how to raise capital, and to connect them to a network of financing sources. A 2011 Small Business Administration (SBA) study concluded that "veterans are at least 45 percent more likely than those with no active-duty military experience to be self-employed."
The founders of the VetCap initiative came up with this concept following a White House and Joining Forces Veterans Entrepreneurship Workshop in February, bringing together private-sector innovators and entrepreneurs to brainstorm and accelerate the development of new programs to help veterans find and grow their businesses. VetCap is an independent initiative inspired by these discussions and is organized by VetsinTech and other private-sector partners nationwide.
A panel of expert investors/lenders from the major capital categories will lead discussions on “Where to Raise Capital” and “How to Pitch to Investors”. The audience will consist of roughly 50 veteran entrepreneurs from around the country, including up to ten veterans who will be pitching their startups to the panel of experts. Panel members and organizers include:
VC
Angel Investor
Corp Ventures
Bank/Lender
Crowdfunder
SBA
AGENDA:
6:00pm Networking Reception
6:30pm Welcome and opening remarks
6:35pm Panel discussion "how to pitch to me" w/Q
7:30pm *Veteran Entrepreneurs pitch to panel
9:00pm Adjourn
*Veterans who would like to pitch should indicate so on order form and executive summaries will be required no later than Nov 28th - these should be sent to [email protected] with "VetCap Portland pitch request" in subject line.

We're getting together this Tuesday the 25th (tomorrow) to drink some beer and eat some pizza, and talk games.
Come out to the Lucky Lab Pub in NW (1945 NW Quimby) at 7:00pm and meet some fellow game devs.
This month some of us met with an advocacy group in Portland (ProspectPDX) to talk about state assistance with the Oregon game industry.
We can discuss the details of that meeting and everything else game-dev related (or not).
Hope to see you there! |

Portland Ruby Brigade monthly meeting
Roll back
| description |
We'll have pizza & beer starting at 6pm, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations.
# PRESENTATIONS at 7pm
### Markus Roberts: *Thinking Outside the Framework*
### Jonan Scheffler: *Sauron: DIY Home Security with Ruby!*
This is the story of how I built an all-seeing eye with Ruby, and how I use it to defend the sanctity of my suburban home.
Using a Raspberry Pi and some homemade motion detection software I've developed a home security system that can send me notifications on my phone and photograph intruders. It uses perceptual hashes to detect image changes and archives anything unusual. I can even set a custom alerting threshold and graph disturbances over time.
If you've ever had the desire to be an evil wizard with a glowing fireball of an eye this talk is perfect for you. Come play with Sauron.
http://rubyconf.org/program#prop_787
#
After presentations we'll have more socializing time.
# Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!
#
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 29th 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 29th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
<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>. The group usually meets on the first Tuesday of the month, "Ruby Tuesday" -- see you there!

# PRESENTATIONS at 7pm
### Markus Roberts: *Thinking Outside the Framework*
### Davy Stevenson: *Benchmarking Ruby*
Testing is firmly ingrained in our culture, and many of us rely on a network of services to test, evaluate and profile our code. But what about benchmarking?
Learn tips and tricks about how to approach benchmarking and the variety of gems that are available. Learn about tools to help determine algorithmic complexity of your code, as well as how this information can help you make development choices. Learn how to properly set up your benchmarking experiments to ensure that the results you receive are accurate. More importantly, discover that benchmarking can be both fun and easy.

Rose City SPIN: Is Data Dated? by Arnie Rowland
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Abstract
In the past decade there has been an incredible explosion in the amount and kinds of data being collected, captured, combined, complied, concentrated, and subsequently culled. Companies are being stretched financially to collect, store, sift through, and find value from their considerable investments in data. On Premises Servers, Cloud Servers, Data Redundancy Sites, High Availability options, Back-up infrastructures and off sites storage –all with the constant fear of losing control of the data. We all know that Hackers are everywhere, working to find value in anyone’s security lapse, trying to find a way in. But do you realize that most economic damage comes from avoidable accidents, misuse, and misappropriation of data, from within the organization?

Transactive Energy Conference 2014
Roll back
| description |

The electric grid system runs on software and those software functions are expanding in response to more solar and wind in the grid.
The GridWise® Architecture Council and Smart Grid Northwest are pleased to announce that the Second International Conference and Workshop on Transactive Energy will be held on December 10-11, 2014 in Portland, Oregon at the World Trade Center.
Capacity is limited and regular ticket prices end on December 7 when late registration prices go into effect.
The meeting brings together representatives of government, industry, utilities, vendor organizations and academia who have an interest in advancing transactive energy—an approach that combines economic and control techniques to improve power grid reliability and efficiency.
This year the event has a variety of worthwhile activities for energy professionals, policy makers and anyone interested in the value revolution of intelligent electricity. The conference will feature keynote talks from energy industry leaders, international expert panels, presentations of selected papers on topics critical to the success of transactive energy. There will also be four different interactive workshops where attendees can discuss and develop answers to important questions about the future of intelligent electricity.
The 2014 conference will again be a partnership between the GridWise® Architecture Council (GWAC) and Smart Grid Northwest with support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the Bonneville Power Administration, Portland General Electric, and others.
GWAC was formed by the Department of Energy to promote and enable interoperability among the many entities that interact with the nation's electric power system. |

Science on Tap - Parasites
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Science on Tap is a science lecture series where you can sit back, enjoy a pint, and laugh while you learn. Listen to experts talk about the science in your neighborhood and around the world. You don’t have to be a science geek to have fun—all you need is a thirst for knowledge!
COST: $8 online advance tickets, $10* suggested cover at the door
FOOD & DRINK: Beer, wine, popcorn, and snacks available. You’re welcome to bring food into the theater with you.
DESCRIPTION:
Parasites constitute a global health problem of unimaginable magnitude. Two out of three people worldwide are afflicted with a parasitic disease, and most people who harbor parasites actually are afflicted with a multiplicity of diseases. The organisms that are considered traditional parasites are either protozoa, worms, or insects, although viruses, bacteria, and fungi also meet the classic definition of a parasite.
At this Science on Tap, Dr. Buddy Ullman, parasitologist at OHSU, will take a somewhat irreverent tour of the major time-honored parasites and describe where they live, how they reproduce, and what effect they have on humans. Warning: this talk will be both gross and fascinating!
_________
*A note on the suggested cover at the door: Science on Tap is mostly supported by money collected at the door. It is committed to offering educational opportunities to adults who want to learn, so if $10 is a hardship for you, please come anyway and donate what you can. |

DESCRIPTION:
From flying machines to computers to lasers to lidar, technology has revolutionized the study of earth science. That’s good news for Oregon, where scientists at the Department of Geology and Mineral Industries are using lidar to learn more than ever before about the widespread geologic hazard of landslides.
Engineering Geologist Bill Burns will talk about the destructive power of landslides, risks for Oregon’s people, places, property – even our beer – and how lidar is making a difference.

Learning Erlang made me a better engineer and architect

Nathan Aschbacher throws down on his favorite Erlang topic:
Learning Erlang made me a better engineer and architect.
Even if you don't think you have a use-case for Erlang, don't have an interest in functional programming, and find reading Prolog inspired syntax directly proportional to your increased consumption of Excedrin... according to Nathan Aschbacher (currently Chief Architect at Snapflow and previously Principal Consulting Architect at Basho) you should learn Erlang anyway.
Nathan will be presenting on his path to Erlang and functional programming, his initial disdain, his later begrudging respect, and finally his eventual love and nostalgia for all things Erlang-y.
Join us and share in the conversation.

1 Million Cups (1MC) is a simple way to engage entrepreneurs right here in Portland. Each week, the 1MC program offers local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of mentors, advisors, and entrepreneurs.

Entrepreneurs gain insight into possible ways they can improve their businesses, gather realtime feedback, connect with a community that truly cares about their progress, and walk away feeling like they have advanced their business. The audience also learns a great deal from the presentations. Whether this is through passively listening or deeply engaging with the entrepreneurs, there is much to learn every week from these dynamic and diverse communities.
The program takes place every Wednesday morning from 9:00-10:00am at 5257 NW Mlk Blvd. Suite 201
