create Calagator::Event 1250459678 Connecting Our Futures: Portland Broadband Strategy Planning kickoff Roll back

description nil Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone go! The City Council is bringing together the community partners, businesses, activists, experts and multiple City Bureaus to work on the Portland Broadband Strategic Plan. The “Connecting Our Future” kick-off event will feature national and local presenters, including two nationally known speakers, Anthony Townsend of The Institute for the Future (www.iftf.org) and Joanne Hovis, CEO Columbia Telecommunications Corp. The plan is sponsored Commissioner Amanda Fritz, who stresses that the Council and the City must develop a broadband communications infrastructure as well as connectivity strategies to increase business vitality and job creation, enhance government services, promote sustainability, transportation, health care and regulatory policies; and to improve accessibility and responsiveness of government to citizens through connectivity. Quite a mouthful, but come at 10 am for a brief coffee mingle to engage your fellow constituents, representatives and thought leaders for some plain talk. For complete information, including the full kick off agenda and plan charter see: http://www.portlandonline.com/cable/index.cfm?c=54013

create Calagator::Event 1250459677 PDX Web & Design Happy Hour Roll back

description nil If you're like me, you spend WAYYYY too much time in front of a computer. I think it would be great to have a monthly get together at a bar or pub to just get to know each other, have a brew, and yes, talk about the business. Real human interaction, in other words. We meet the first Tuesday of every month.

create Calagator::Event 1250459676 Lightning Talk & Discussion Free for All Roll back

description nil A completely chaotic, non-directed, organic discussion of our favorite web and design tools, ideas, methodologies, or anything relevant to the group. We had one of these in December (feel free to bring snacks, food, etc) and it went over very well. So well, in fact, many people have requested another sooner rather than later. So here's the deal: We can set up a laptop on the projector and anyone who is interested can spend 5 minutes discussion and showing off their favorite tools, frameworks, projects - or just stand up and talk. Anyone interested should prepare a bit in advance, keep it short (we're serious about the 5 minute cutoff!), and let's cram as much (web and design related) knowledge as we can in 90 minute!

update Calagator::Event 1250459666 Database Testing: Maximum Coverage with a Minimum of Data Roll back

description Maximum Coverage with a Minimum of Data: How Equivalence Classes can be used to narrow down the amount of data needed for analysis In Quality Assurance, an Equivalence Class is the set of all inputs that can be seen as interchangeable with one another without impacting the results of the test, where only one of them needs to be tested in order to have confidence in the test results. Automation can certainly help facilitate running all scenarios, but it isn't always possible or practical to create a completely automated test suite. This lunch time presentation is ideal for the QA Engineer who is trying create a data set and complimentary set of test cases that accurately validates the code without having to run through a seemingly endless matrix of possibilities. When making an analysis of the behavior of a system that is based on a large set of data, you have basically three options presented: Full data-set analysis, Analysis of a randomly sampled subset of the data, or Selection of a subset of data based on Equivalence Class Elimination. In this presentation we will talk about the pro's and con's of each approach, and then focus on how to proceed with the Equivalence Class methodology in greater detail. Please join us for this informative and interactive discussion followed by a Q&A session.

description nil Season 4, episode 10 -- Last episode of Season 10! Get up early and work on your side projects with some like-minded geeks! TechCoffee is part running club, part knitting bee, and part hackathon. It's hard to work on all of your amazing ideas after a long workday, so instead we get up early. And we get together, so we have the reinforcement of other people up early, too. A couple hours a week can make a big difference. So bring your laptops and your work ethic to PDX TechCoffee. Or, if you can't be there in person, join us on IRC at #techcoffee on freenode. One commit a week is all we ask.

description nil What: This is a an opportunity for 20-30 people to build their own arduino compatible "Dorkboard", A complete microprocessor based development environment which is very popular with artists and other creative people. Tempus Dictum and DorkbotPDX have put together a kit and a programmer as a local resource at a very low cost. This seminar is to walk you through putting one together and programming it Where: PNCA -- 1241 NW Johnson Ave, Room 205 When: Sunday Jan 30, 2011 from 1 to 5pm (other sessions to be scheduled soon) You Bring A laptop A soldering iron (20-30W Pencil type) A standard (not mini) usb cable (A->B) A pair of dikes (wire cutters/nippers) $35 You will get A duce usb to serial programmer A Dorkboard! (an Arduino clone) Kit An introduction to the Arduino and microcontrollers in an artists setting Help when you need it To know that what you built worked at least once How do I rsvp?

create Calagator::Event 1250459658 Westside Programmers Roll back

description nil A polyglot programming group meeting in the heart of The Beave. We seem to talk a lot about oddball programming languages and their features. And the usual geekery you'd expect from a programmer's group. This month's talk is by Richard Fobes: "Faster than an FFT, the audio-oriented QRST (spectral transform)" Based on the interest Phil and Ed expressed in my spectral transform, I've spent lots of time during the past two months further developing the software. Besides getting it to work better -- it still needs refinement -- I've ended up creating an audio-compression method I call QRST. I'll be playing sound files to demonstrate what the spectral transform, the audio-compression format, and decompression back into sound files can do, so this will be much more interesting than the words "spectral transform" suggest. BTW, being faster than the FFT is just one of the side effects of having designed it for use with sound files. Fourier transforms are sooo ssllooww.

description Process Work Institute's parking entrance is at the west side of the building. Please park by the back side of the building and come to the only big room named "class room". --- Let's experiment a new technology for communication! WELCOME! Welcome to world of communication! This is one of my answers to “Is there an easier and cooler way to learn communication?”. I have had so many troubles about communication. Human being science developed so much. There must be a new technology and practice to make things easier, and even cool way for me. I am as a Tree hugger computer system engineer fascinated by transpersonal psychology and Process Oriented Ecology, Non Violent Communication and Deep Democracy. And I would like to mesh up and introduce for cool technical people. And as you know, communication is important! This new technology to inspire you about communication and team work is well designed for people who are very high functioning in technical area and interested in improving the art of communication. Cost to Attend: Free Organizer: Jiro Isetani I am a student of Master of Art in Conflict Facilitation and Organizational Change at The Process Work Institute. I'm mainly from Japan, living in Portland since 1996. This is a part of my final project. Process Work Institute's parking entrance is at the west side of the building.
