**NOTE: Change of Venue!**
We're going to change things up this month and will be hosting our first meeting of the year downtown. Join us at the [Portland Incubator Experiment (PIE) office][piepdx], located at 12th and NW Davis.
----
Dana Jacobsen will give a talk on his number theory module. This is an early version of the talk for FOSDEM.
This talk describes the history, design, and implementation details of a number theory module for Perl. With implementations for most functions in C, C+GMP, and Perl this offers speed on most platforms as well as portability. Comparisons will be made with tools such as Pari/GP, SymPy, SAGE, Primo, OpenPFGW, and others.
[Full synopsis here][synopsis]
We'll migrate to Life of Riley or another nearby venue after the meeting for drinks and food.

#Mobile Strategy for Today and Tomorrow#
##A mobile thought leaders panel moderated by Rick Turoczy##
**› Please RSVP via Eventbrite [HERE](http://bit.ly/13QxjLR)**
Just a few short years ago, most organizations didn’t even have a mobile app. Today mobile has infiltrated virtually every sector of industry and mobile e-commerce generates over half of all e-commerce sales. Is it important for every organization to have a mobile strategy?
To address this question, New Relic is kicking off 2015 with our first ever FutureTalks PDX speaker panel! This event will bring together local thought leaders in the mobile app space to discuss the strategies and challenges their organizations face in building and managing high performing mobile apps or services, and the teams that support them.
These visionaries include:
* Kevin Hurst, VP/GM Portland Office, eBay
* Sasha Mace, Director of Mobile, Simple
* Michael Richardson, Co-Founder and Director of Product, Urban Airship
* Sridhar Solur, Managing Director, Next Gen Computing- Wearables, IOT
Panelists will be asked to reflect on the challenges and key strategies they employ today, and how they see mobile strategy evolving for their organizations in the future. If you have a specific question(s) that you would like us to consider posing to our speakers, please email those to [email protected].
**› Doors will open at 5:30p for a networking happy hour! The food, beer and drinks are provided by Bellagios and New Relic. The presentation will begin right at 6:30.**
› FutureTalk is brought to you by [New Relic](http://www.newrelic.com) in collaboration with [TAO](http://www.techoregon.org) |

Break into small teams! Build something awesome! Share the results!
At brightnight, we will start with a challenge, break into small groups, then create and code our ideas into existence! We will take the last 30 or so minutes of the night to show and tell. All skill levels are welcome. We'll code in Ruby but those who know other languages are welcome as well.
Come join us to enjoy some creative coding time where we all can learn from each other, try out wacky ideas and cultivate our skills in a fun, low-pressure environment.

Join us for the inaugural Portland Virtual Reality Meetup!
This is an important moment in the history of virtual reality. For decades VR has been available only to high-budget research laboratories. But that is changing quickly. True immersive VR is finally making its way into the hands-and homes-of early adopters. Come and meet fellow VR enthusiasts, experimenters, and developers, and let's help each other explore this fascinating new frontier together.
We expect to have several speakers, with plenty of time for demos, show and tell, etc.
Confirmed Speakers:
* Kent Bye - (Portland Virtual Reality Organizer) Introduction and vision for Portland Virtual Reality
* MORE SPEAKERS TBD
If you have a project that you would like to share with the group, or a topic you would like to speak about, please contact Kent Bye.
If you have an Oculus Rift or have any other interesting VR hardware or software to share, please consider bringing it along for the demo and show and tell portion of the event.
Doors open at 6:30PM, speakers start at 7:00. |

Monthly Happy Hour

<p>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. Repeats the last Tuesday of every month.</p> <p>Starting September 24th we will be changing venues to Romtoms, on the east side of the bridge at Burnside and 6th St. We hope there will be more room and it will be easier to find the rest of us. We look forward to seeing everyone.</p> <p>If you can't find us inside look for us out in the back we may be enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful open patio.</p> |

We're bringing this event back to where it all began, Tilt! It's incredible to see how big this event has gotten since we started it 9 months ago.
I know a bunch of you have asked about events or meetups where you could grab a cup of coffee with other people in the tech community. This has been a great even to meet quite a bit of people in one event who are all working to build something pretty special. I love these events and look forward to them every month.
Hope to see you there! |

Look for us in the upstairs area as you walk in. There are two big tables up there so there should be enough room for everyone.
Bring plenty of business cards and be ready to talk about what you're working on. |

Science on Tap - Fruit Flies and Alcohol
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Date: Wednesday, January 14, 2015
Time: Doors at 6 p.m. event at 7 p.m.
Location: Kiggins Theatre, 1011 Main Street, Vancouver, Wash.
Cost: [$8 online advance tickets](https://viaproductions.seatengine.com/shows/22466) , $10* suggested cover at the door. This is an all-ages event.
Food & Drink: Beer, wine, pizza slices, popcorn and snacks available.
Event Description:
Those pesky fruit flies that seem to come out of nowhere have actually evolved a pretty sophisticated way to stay healthy. Fruit flies are often host to parasitic wasps who lay their eggs inside the flies and which, after they hatch, consume the flies from the inside out. (Yes, like the movie Alien.) Since fruit flies are often around rotting, fermenting fruits, the flies that are infected with the parasitic wasps will actively seek out otherwise harmful levels of alcohol that has the effect of killing off the wasps in their system. They can also identify the wasps by sight, and when they see them, they will lay their eggs on more alcoholic food sources in (presumably) an effort to protect their offspring from being infected in the future. [Todd Schlenke](http://academic.reed.edu/biology/professors/schlenke/), PhD, professor of biology at Reed College, will talk about his studies that seem to show fruit flies self medicating and discuss how alcohol might be used as medication in humans as well.
_________
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!
_________
Science on Tap at the Kiggins is produced in partnership with Washington State University Vancouver.
_________
*A note on the suggested cover at the door: Science on Tap is supported, in part, by money collected at the door. We are 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. |

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
### Chris Dillon: Arduino Cat Faucet
### Casey Rosenthal: *Ruby v Elixir*
#
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!

World Information Architecture Day 2015
Roll back
| description |
WORLD IA DAY - ARCHITECTING HAPPINESS THROUGH DESIGN THINKING
It's FREE all day, but you MUST MUST register. RSVPing here is not the same as registration. Go here:
https://worldiadaypdx2015.eventbrite.com
When information is clear and considerate of the context in which we need it, there is a certain peaceful joy that washes over us. We crave the feeling that someone carefully considered our needs and expectations.
Our world is increasingly made of information, yet so much of that information is not as clear or accessible as it could be to those it is intended for. Every organization out there seems to say that they want to make their users happy, but who is really delivering on those promises?
Who is really architecting for happiness? On February 21, 2015 we want to ask the world to help us uncover answers to questions we believe to be critical to the future of how we practice information architecture:
Speakers for WIAD2015 in Portland in order:
<b>Keynote: Charles Adler, Co-founder - Kickstarter: Enterprise Design</b>
Jose Caballer, Co-founder - The Skool: Brainstorm Design
Ken Rubin, VP Culinary Training - Rouxbe Online Cooking School: Curriculum and Food Culture Design
Surj Patel, Former CEO - GigaOM: Database and Information Management Design
Rain Dove Dubilewski, Runway Model: Gender Design
Thubten Comerford, Co-founder Pitchlandia: Interpersonal Communication Design
Shannon Anderson, Talent Acquisition - ISITE: Team and Workplace Design
Trent Still, Director of Design and Fabrication - ADX: Prototyping and product development design
PLUS! A special guest...stay tuned.

<p>2014 was a year of wearables, launches, failures, and experimentation. It was a classic technology revolution year. But new tech isn't about next year tech, it's about last year's tech perfected. Perfecting revolutions requires an act of evolution, and the next year or two will be rife with it.</p> <p>Let's look at the revolution of new wearable successes of the previous year (quantitative self, smart watches) and wearables that require more evolution in the coming years (Google Glass, smart clothes) for mainstream success. What can we do to help evolve this space?</p> |
