<h5>Alan Wizemann is our keynote speaker for the evening:
Retail is changing. The way consumers are shopping is changing. From smart phones, to tablets, to physical stores, enterprise retailers are battling for their bottom line. These problems are difficult and expensive to solve internally. New, innovative technologies from startups are now at the forefront to drive those solutions and create massive revenue in the process.Â
Hear from Alan Wizemann on how you can position your startup to solve these problems, sell and scale to the needs of the enterprise.
As Executive Product Leader and Mentor and a consultant for Target, Alan has led several select social media and mobile efforts to help Target save millions of dollars in operating expenses while driving significant sales and revenue across Target's retail channels. Alan has helped launch several products including Cartwheel, Target's innovative savings application.</h5> |

## Stalking the Lost Write: Memory Visibility in Concurrent Java
Throughout its 18-year evolution, the Java language has played an industry-leading role in the tricky business of specifying the behavior of concurrent programs. Java's contribution became particularly evident with the introduction of the Java Memory Model (JMM) in Java 1.5.
This is an area in which a down-to-the-metal understanding can help developers strike the right balance between safety and performance, so we'll start by motivating the discussion with counterintuitive low-level examples. Then we'll work "up from the weeds" to describe the JMM as a basis for more familiar programming patterns. We'll touch on how C, C++, and C# deal with the same issues and give a nod to functional languages and Java 8.
This material can help most developers become more insightful about concurrency issues in their code. Be there or be unsynchronized! |

PDXNode presentation night

Monthly presentation night!
This set of talks will be a great way to cap off our first year of PDXNode:
* Jen(@ednapiranha) A Mozillan and co-creator of meatspac.es, will be sharing about the awesome new WebRTC chat fun taking over our cameras and free time.
* Wraithan Our resident IRC champion, will be running a tutorial on IRC bots: "from installing libraries to connecting to a channel to reacting to what someone said".
* Newb at Everything @edrex will demo his current tooling for publishing sites. Hopefully this will inspire some epic nerd battles and/or pull requests at the pub later.
Presentations start at 7pm. We welcome open dialogue during the presenations. We're all here to learn!
Come a little early to say hi. We'll also be hanging out at 6:30pm to help any newcomers needing help to gettting started by installing node and npm.
It will be a nice variety of topics and level of talks. If anyone is interested, we could also take discussions to post-talk drinks nearby. Maybe even hack a little. |

## Stalking the Lost Write: Memory Visibility in Concurrent Java
Throughout its 18-year evolution, the Java language has played an industry-leading role in the tricky business of specifying the behavior of concurrent programs. Java's contribution became particularly evident with the introduction of the Java Memory Model (JMM) in Java 1.5.
This is an area in which a down-to-the-metal understanding can help developers strike the right balance between safety and performance, so we'll start by motivating the discussion with counterintuitive low-level examples. Then we'll work "up from the weeds" to describe the JMM as a basis for more familiar programming patterns. We'll touch on how C, C++, and C# deal with the same issues and give a nod to functional languages and Java 8.
This material can help most developers become more insightful about concurrency issues in their code. Be there or be unsynchronized! |

PDXCloud December Gathering
Roll back
| description |
PDXCloud met for the first time in November 2012, and now it's time to celebrate our one year anniversary!
This Wednesday we will have a panel of guests talking around the theme, "Why We Chose Cloud, and What We've Learned". We have a group of panelists (many thanks to those that have agreed to sit on the panel so far), and we still have room for a few more if anyone is interested. If you have any inclination to answer questions about your company's use of cloud technologies and the factors and decisions that went into selecting those technologies, please send me an email ([email protected]). No presentations will be required, this will mainly be a Q&A session.
For the rest of you, bring plenty of questions for our panelists!
As usual, we'll have pizza, beer, and other refreshments, and additionally, we'll have a birthday cake to celebrate PDXCloud's 1 year anniversary!
As usual, doors open at 6:30pm, meeting starts at 7pm. Hope to see you on Wednesday! |

March PADNUG - Mobile First Responsive Design by Jason Grigsby
Roll back
| description |
Mobile first and responsive web design arenât simply two great tastes that go great together. No they represent much more than that. Mobile first responsive web design is the responsible way to build responsive designs.
Mobile first responsive web design is the best way to build something that is both responsive from a layout AND a performance perspective.
But if mobile first is the right way to do responsive design, then why are so few people doing it? In this presentation, weâll dig into why mobile first responsive design matters and the five techniques necessary to make it work.
Jason Grigsby was one of the project leads on the Obama iPhone Application and helped design the user interface for the Wall Street Journalâs Blackberry application. He founded and organizes Mobile Portland, a local mobile development user group. Jason built his first web page in 1995. He has spent the last 11 years building web sites professionally before being bitten by the mobile bug prompting him to throw caution to the wind and start a new company focused on mobile and web development. He blogs at CloudFour.com (http://cloudfour.com/) and can be found on Twitter as @grigs (http://twitter.com/grigs).

Weâll start out at Portland Incubator Experiment, a start-up incubator for new, emerging tech businesses. Associated with and housed in the Widen+Kennedy building, the space canopies 8-10 start-ups at a time, helping with the early stages of creating business. Weâll hear about how theyâve created more than $1 million in venture capital and more than 400 jobs, and meet with several of the business owners.
At Second Story weâll get a look at their innovation center for new interactive experiences. Staff will share their work in pushing the boundaries of storytelling across digital channels â including web, mobile and installations. Weâll hear a bit about their history and some of the new groundbreaking projects currently in development.
Nike+ Accelerator will provide us with a similar but different view into the world of emerging start-ups. Started just months ago, 10 teams are working with mentors to develop a variety of businesses, many around health, wellness and technology. The program is run by TechStars, a Colorado-based company that has generated more than $275 million in venture capital for clients over the last six years.
The tour ends at Free Geek, a nonprofit whose mission is to recycle technology and provide access to computers, the Internet, education, and job skills in exchange for community service. Founded in 2000, the center refurbishes more than 44,000 computers, printers and monitors a year, while recycling 601 tons of materials. Weâll take a quick tour of their thrift store, as well as learn about their hardware grants program, classes and volunteer opportunities. |

Wearables: The future is now
Roll back
| description |
In early 2012, Nike introduced FuelBand and Google announced its Glass Project â two events that shined a spotlight on the growing category of Wearable Technology. In the months since, the global design and business community has exploded with speculation on the potential of embedded computing. But theyâve left many questions unanswered: How will wearable technology fit into our daily lives? Is it a passing trend, or the future of computing? Will these kinds of devices bring people closer together, or add to the distractions that battle for our attention?
Whatâs clear is that computers will radically transform over the next five years, from devices we carry to integrated parts of our outfits and bodies, that we use almost without thinking. Itâs a shift that will transform markets, and challenge our definition of beauty. Please join us for a talk with local experts, as they discuss their challenges and successes, and explore what the future holds in this exciting field.
To save your seat, please register for this event on Eventbrite

Mobile Portland: Intel's Android Tools and Community
Roll back
| description |
<p>Because Intel is a hardware company, people often miss the things Intel does on the software side and in particular open source software. 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>
