This meeting will be split into two parts:
Justin Miller and Scott Neal will be presenting on Core Data. This is the second of two presentations on this vast topic.
The second part of the meeting will be the fifth month of the Learning iPhone project (http://groups.google.com/group/pdx-cocoaheads-talk/browse_thread/thread/b6f453fca8284f1).
Those who aren't interested in the class can head out for beer, and the rest of us will join them when we're done. |

PSU CS Colloquium: Scrap Your Zippers: A Generic Zipper for Heterogeneous Types

| description |
Scrap Your Zippers: A Generic Zipper
for Heterogeneous Types
Michael Adams, Indiana University
<h5>Abstract</h5>
The zipper type provides the ability to efficiently edit tree-shaped data in a purely functional setting by providing constant time edits at a focal point in an immutable structure. It is used in a number of applications and is widely applicable for manipulating tree-shaped data structures.
The traditional zipper suffers from two major limitations, however. First, it operates only on homogeneous types. That is to say, every node the zipper visits must have the same type. In practice, many tree-shaped types do not satisfy this condition, and thus cannot be handled by the traditional zipper. Second, the traditional zipper involves a significant amount of boilerplate code. A custom implementation must be written for each type the zipper traverses. This is error prone and must be updated whenever the type being traversed changes.
The generic zipper presented in this talk overcomes these limitations. It operates over any type and requires no boilerplate code to be written by the user. The only restriction is that the types traversed must be instances of the Data class from the Scrap your Boilerplate framework.
<h5>Biography</h5>
Michael D. Adams will be completing his Ph.D. in Computer Science at Indiana University this summer. He has a B.S. in Computer Science, a B.S in Computer Engineering and a Minor in Mathematics from the University of Kansas.
His research interests are the implementation and construction of programming languages, compilers and software analysis tools that help programmers more easily implement, reason about, prove correct and improve the performance of their programs. This includes areas such as type systems, static analysis, control-flow analysis, compilers and optimization.
In spring 2007, he worked on the X10 language for an internship at IBM Research. In summer 2007, he worked on the Glasgow Haskell Compiler at Microsoft Research. In 2008-2010 he worked for Cadence Research on the Chez Scheme compiler.
He is an avid swing dancer and cyclist. |

The initial reaction to 52 Mobile Apps has been really good, so we're going to start mapping out our next steps. Meet us at PIE to help figure out what it'll take to get things started.
We'll go over what's been discussed so far, and start to plan the roadmap for what should be tackled next, and start drumming up excitement for the project.
Categories we should hit first:
* The website. It's ready, sort of.
* Tutorials. First one should go live July 4th, so we have some time, but not tons.
* The criteria for distributing and submitting app ideas, and the committee that will be voting on them.
See you there! |

OEN Webinar: Is there a Market for your Product?
Roll back
| description |
Are you thinking of starting a new company? Or already have, but sales aren't what you think they should be? Are you questioning your market's "readiness" for your products or services? Your company?
If you are concerned about market acceptance - and want to learn how to quickly âidentifyâ how well the market will receive your product, don't miss this webinar.
Mark Paul, Managing Director at Synergy Consulting Group and the author of The Entrepreneur's Survival Guide, will walk you through two (of the six) methods to help you determine if there is a market for your product or business - before you invest time and money developing products that may never be what the market wants.
Speaker: Mark Paul
Mark Paul has extensive executive leadership experience. He has led start-ups through public companies in his 22 years in interim executive and consulting work. Before Synergy, he spent 10 years at Northrop Corporation (Global 500 company), where (as an intrapreneur) he built a 250-person business unit in two years. He has a degree in Physics, a patent, and published several editions of two business books: The Entrepreneur's Survival Guide, and How to Attract Significantly More Customers. |

Details coming! |

Portland Code Camp (http://portlandcodecamp.org), the annual free event that invites software professionals from throughout the Northwest to present on a wide range of programming technologies will be held on Saturday, June 4, from 8am to 10pm at Eliot Center (http://eliotcenterportland.org/) in downtown Portland.
This year’s keynote will be Scott Hanselman (http://computerzen.com), who will speak on: “Lego, Open Source and Sucking Less: An Overview of the MS Web Stack of Love”. A popular speaker who, by his own admission, doesn’t “sleep too much”, Scott is currently a Microsoft principal program manager, has been Chief Architect at Corillian Corporation, and a principal consultant at STEP Technology.
Come listen to a wide range of topics and technologies inluding talks on: Android Apps, Windows Phone 7 programming, HTML5, Azure, the Cloud, Asynchronous Programming, Open Source frameworks, and much more.
Through the generous support of its sponsors and donors, Portland Code Camp is free (registration is easy and painless at http://portlandcodecamp.org/) and includes snacks, lunch and what is best – the ability to hobnob with your fellow programmers while learning about many of the hottest programming, web and mobile technologies.
If you have experience and a passion for some aspect of programming technology or process that you feel would be of interest to the community at large, please submit an abstract before May 25 (http://portlandcodecamp.org). We are encouraging sessions that range from sessions that help folks that are new to a technology to those that demonstrate pushing the edges with various technologies. If you have never presented before, be of good cheer – Portland Code Camp welcomes first time presenters.

The Myth of Mobile Context -- Mobile Portland
Roll back
| description |
<b>Please RSVP at:
http://mobileportland.com/events/myth-mobile-context</b>
Pick up most books about building web sites or products for mobile and youâll hear a common refrain extolling you to pay attention to the mobile context. Usually this means paying attention to the fact that people using mobile phones are likely to be on the go, have limited attention, and slow Internet connections.
This may have been true in the past, but data suggests that this behavior is changing:
* 93% of smartphone owners use their smartphones while at home
* 62% of people use their mobile phone while watching television
* 69% use mobile while shopping
* 39% of smartphone owners use their devices in the bathroom
Data like this challenges our understanding of the mobile context. At this monthâs Mobile Portland, weâve assembled an all-star panel to tackle tough questions like:
1. What is mobile context, really? What can we really infer about usersâ intent from the fact that they're on a small screen?
2. Is mobile really desktop lite? Is it a peer to, but separate from, desktop content/tools? Is it one web, or is that a pipe dream?
3. How do we tackle building/designing for what seems to be becoming an infinite number of devices/screens? Buzz is all about future-facing, cutting edge devices (iPhone, Android, tablets)... what about older feature phones. Who are we designing for?
Please join us for this timely and certain to be lively discussion.
<b>About Our Panelists</b>
<b>Josh Clark, Global Moxie</b>
Josh is a designer specializing in mobile design strategy and user experience. He's author of the O'Reilly books Tapworthy: Designing Great iPhone Apps and Best iPhone Apps. Josh's outfit Global Moxie offers consulting services and workshops to help media companies, design agencies, and creative organizations build tapworthy mobile apps and effective websites.
Before the interwebs swallowed him up, Josh worked on a slew of national PBS programs at Boston's WGBH. He shared his three words of Russian with Mikhail Gorbachev, strolled the ranch with Nancy Reagan, hobnobbed with Rockefellers, and wrote trivia questions for a primetime game show. In 1996, he created the uberpopular "Couch-to-5K" (C25K) running program, which has helped millions of skeptical would-be exercisers take up jogging. (His motto is the same for fitness as it is for user experience: no pain, no pain.)
<b>Daniel Davis, Opera</b>
Daniel is the Web Evangelist for Opera's Japan office based in Tokyo. His previous work experience includes project management, IT training, web development, software development and system administration in both Japan and the UK, his home country.
After studying Japanese and Chinese at the University of Leeds, he grew more and more interested in the flourishing field of IT and the web, learning as much as he could by playing and experimenting with internet-related technologies.
His current work promoting web standards and cross-device web development at Opera fits in perfectly with his ideology of openness and equality across linguistic, social and socio-economic borders.
<b>Ty Hatch, LDS Church</b>
Ty is a designer turned front end developer with a passion for making the mobile experience one people enjoy.
He is currently with the LDS Church in Salt Lake City. Former posts include Microsoft, Intel, Mayo Clinic, a few agencies and a startup or two. You can find him @tyhatch on the twitters.

Currently she is a Senior Research Scientist at the Nokia Research Center in Palo Alto, California, where she focuses on the research and design of emergent and experimental mobile experiences. Prior to joining Nokia, Rachel was an experience design director at Adaptive Path, and a mobile researcher and strategist for Yahoo's mobile group.
Rachel received a Masters Degree in Design Planning from the Institute of Design in Chicago. She is the creative force behind the 90 Mobiles in 90 Days Project and her perspectives on mobile user experience has been featured in Interactions Magazine, BusinessWeek, Wired, and is currently writing a book entitled The Mobile Frontier: A Guide for Designing Mobile Experiences with Rosenfeld Media due out in late 2011.
<b>Tim Kadlec, Breaking Development Conference</b>
Tim Kadlec is web developer living and working in northern Wisconsin with a propensity for efficient, standards-based front-end development. His diverse background working with small companies to large publishers and industrial corporations have allowed him to see how these standards can be effectively utilized for businesses of all sizes. His current interests include creating cross-platform mobile web applications and improving the state of performance optimization on the web.
He sporadically writes about a variety of topics at timkadlec.com. You can also find him sharing his thoughts in a briefer format on twitter. |

He shared his three words of Russian with Mikhail Gorbachev, strolled the ranch with Nancy Reagan, hobnobbed with Rockefellers, and wrote trivia questions for a primetime game show. In 1996, he created the uberpopular "Couch-to-5K" (C25K) running program, which has helped millions of skeptical would-be exercisers take up jogging. (His motto is the same for fitness as it is for user experience: no pain, no pain.)

The Myth of Mobile Context

<b>Please RSVP at:
http://mobileportland.com/events/myth-mobile-context</b>
Pick up most books about building web sites or products for mobile and youâll hear a common refrain extolling you to pay attention to the mobile context. Usually this means paying attention to the fact that people using mobile phones are likely to be on the go, have limited attention, and slow Internet connections.
This may have been true in the past, but data suggests that this behavior is changing:
* 93% of smartphone owners use their smartphones while at home
* 62% of people use their mobile phone while watching television
* 69% use mobile while shopping
* 39% of smartphone owners use their devices in the bathroom
Data like this challenges our understanding of the mobile context. At this monthâs Mobile Portland, weâve assembled an all-star panel to tackle tough questions like:
1. What is mobile context, really? What can we really infer about usersâ intent from the fact that they're on a small screen?
2. Is mobile really desktop lite? Is it a peer to, but separate from, desktop content/tools? Is it one web, or is that a pipe dream?
3. How do we tackle building/designing for what seems to be becoming an infinite number of devices/screens? Buzz is all about future-facing, cutting edge devices (iPhone, Android, tablets)... what about older feature phones. Who are we designing for?
Please join us for this timely and certain to be lively discussion.
