| description |
It's graduation time at Portland Code School!
Come celebrate with us and find your next great team member!
Enjoy an evening of capstones and cocktails. We'll introduce our program and curriculum, and our graduates will be available to show off their awesome capstone web apps.
Here are some of their amazing projects:
Pack Journal
A micro-blogging and personal journaling site organized around location rather than chronology, designed with backpackers, hikers, and outdoorspeople in mind.
Tap-app
TapApp (tap-app-pdx.herokuapp.com) is a draft beer availability and rating app that lets users find, share and rate noteworthy craft beers available in the Portland area.
Swap-tacular
A sharing web app that allows users to post photos, locations and descriptions of items, then give those items away to others.
Project R
A free Instagram hashtag aggregation slideshow projector, designed to quickly and easily create a slideshow of relevant images.
Beerify
Beerify creates a crowd-sourced database of which beers people are currently drinking out on the town and where they're currently available. The app serves as a one-stop point of information for locating your favorite beers in near real time.
Choose Your Own Portland Adventure
Modeled after choose-your-own-adventure books, the Choose Your Own Portland Adventure app delivers a series of adventures you can do solo, or with friends or visiting family members, based on your personal preferences. The questions return a dynamic story based on results from a variety of APIs.

Tech Talk: Verified Cryptographic Implementations
Roll back
| description |
Galois is pleased to host the following tech talk. These talks are free and open to the interested public--please join us! (There is no need to pre-register for the talk.)
Abstract
EasyCrypt is a computer-assisted framework for proving the security of cryptographic constructions. However, there is a significant gap between security proofs done in the usual provable security style and cryptographic implementations used in practice; as a consequence, real-world cryptography is sometimes considered as “one of the many ongoing disaster areas in security. We have recently extended EasyCrypt with support for reasoning about C implementations, and exploited the CompCert verified compiler to carry the security proof to executable code. Moreover, we have developed verified type-based information flow analyses on assembly code to ensure that executable code is protected against cache-based side-channel attacks.
Bio
Gilles Barthe received a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Manchester, UK, in 1993, and an Habilitation à diriger les recherches in Computer Science from the University of Nice, France, in 2004. He joined the IMDEA Software Institute in April 2008. Previously, he was head of the Everest team on formal methods and security at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis Méditerranée, France. He also held positions at the University of Minho, Portugal; Chalmers University, Sweden; CWI, Netherlands; University of Nijmegen, Netherlands. He has published more than 100 refereed scientific papers. He has been coordinator/principal investigator of many national and European projects, and served as the scientific coordinator of the FP6 FET integrated project “MOBIUS: Mobility, Ubiquity and Security” for enabling proof-carrying code for Java on mobile devices (2005-2009). He has been a PC member of many conferences (CSF, ESORICS, FM, ICALP, ITP…), and served as PC (co-)chair of VMCAI’10, ESOP’11, FAST’11, and SEFM’11. He is a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Automated Reasoning.
His research interests include formal methods, programming languages and program verification, software and system security, and cryptography, and foundations of mathematics and computer science. |

Tech Talk: SmartCheck – Automatic and Efficient Counterexample Reduction and Generalization
Roll back
| description |
Galois is pleased to host the following tech talk. These talks are free and open to the interested public--please join us! (There is no need to pre-register for the talk.)
Abstract
QuickCheck is a powerful library for automatic test-case generation. Because QuickCheck performs random testing, some of the counterexamples discovered are very large. QuickCheck provides an interface for the user to write shrink functions to attempt to reduce the size of counterexamples. Hand-written implementations of shrink can be complex, inefficient, and consist of significant boilerplate code. Furthermore, shrinking is only one aspect in debugging: counterexample generalization is the process of extrapolating from individual counterexamples to a class of counterexamples, often requiring a flash of insight from the programmer. To improve counterexample reduction and generalization, we introduce SmartCheck. SmartCheck is a debugging tool that reduces algebraic data using generic search heuristics to efficiently find smaller counterexamples. In addition to shrinking, SmartCheck also automatically generalizes counterexamples to formulas representing classes of counterexamples. SmartCheck has been implemented for Haskell and is freely available.

Kristof Van Tomme will reprise his talk to the European Write The Docs '14 conference back in April. Kristof is the CEO of Pronovix and the project lead of WalkHub, both focused on Drupal-based systems. He'll be joining us remotely from Belgium, from a very early hour in his time zone. He agreed to do his talk on late notice after a change in plans. Thank you Kristof!
Here is the description of his talk from WTD EU 2014 (Budapest)
*************************
You could argue that outdated documentation is even worse than no documentation at all. It creates frustration and destroys the trust of your customers. But how do you maintain your documentation in a project with a fast release cycle?
In this talk I will explore strategies for keeping different types of documentation up to date and discuss a few tools (including WalkHub, an open source project we are working on) that can be used to automatically test or even update documentation as part of your continuous integration process. |

"No talks. You may opt to take up to 60 seconds to complain about Big Data. One paper per month, no obligation to read it."
We'll start by letting anyone who wants to take up to a minute to tell us what they've been doing with data lately.
This month's paper is [Dynamo: Amazon’s Highly Available Key-value Store](http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/files/amazon-dynamo-sosp2007.pdf) by DeCandia etal. Read it or don't - the goal is just to have something to start conversations. "Did you read the paper?" will do nicely.
Mention @PDXBigData on Twitter with the link to the full paper to suggest papers for future sessions. |

Tech Talk: Verified Cryptographic Implementations
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Galois is pleased to host the following tech talk. These talks are free and open to the interested public--please join us! (There is no need to pre-register for the talk.)
Abstract
EasyCrypt is a computer-assisted framework for proving the security of cryptographic constructions. However, there is a significant gap between security proofs done in the usual provable security style and cryptographic implementations used in practice; as a consequence, real-world cryptography is sometimes considered as “one of the many ongoing disaster areas in security. We have recently extended EasyCrypt with support for reasoning about C implementations, and exploited the CompCert verified compiler to carry the security proof to executable code. Moreover, we have developed verified type-based information flow analyses on assembly code to ensure that executable code is protected against cache-based side-channel attacks.
Bio
Gilles Barthe received a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Manchester, UK, in 1993, and an Habilitation à diriger les recherches in Computer Science from the University of Nice, France, in 2004. He joined the IMDEA Software Institute in April 2008. Previously, he was head of the Everest team on formal methods and security at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis Méditerranée, France. He also held positions at the University of Minho, Portugal; Chalmers University, Sweden; CWI, Netherlands; University of Nijmegen, Netherlands. He has published more than 100 refereed scientific papers. He has been coordinator/principal investigator of many national and European projects, and served as the scientific coordinator of the FP6 FET integrated project “MOBIUS: Mobility, Ubiquity and Security” for enabling proof-carrying code for Java on mobile devices (2005-2009). He has been a PC member of many conferences (CSF, ESORICS, FM, ICALP, ITP…), and served as PC (co-)chair of VMCAI’10, ESOP’11, FAST’11, and SEFM’11. He is a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Automated Reasoning.
His research interests include formal methods, programming languages and program verification, software and system security, and cryptography, and foundations of mathematics and computer science. |

Sharepoint 2014 seminar : Implementing Best Practices and tools for effective governance
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Overview:
SharePoint is a web-based document management and collaboration tool with robust search capabilities that has become a common feature in the corporate environment. Companies experience varying levels of SharePoint success and user adoption. Many SharePoint implementations fail with little user acceptance after a substantial corporate investment in software and hardware. Often the root cause of failure is because SharePoint is not an IT project, it is a Knowledge Management project with SharePoint as the technology platform for Knowledge Management. This seminar will delve into information taxonomy, findability, demystifying metadata and the death of folders, SharePoint Governance, and strategies for a successful SharePoint rollout.
The seminar explores SharePoint, Knowledge Management and the interplay between both. Seminar sessions will provide analysis and insight into:

<h1>The Church of Robotron</h1>
<h2>2014 Testing and Training Facility</h2>
With only 70 years remaining until the robot uprising crisis of 2084, <a href="http://churchofrobotron.com">The Church of Robotron</a> desperately announces that it will be conducting testing and training operations at the <a href="http://www.jetsoncreative.com/diode">Diode Gallery</a>, <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/oQa1R">514 NW Couch, Portland, OR 97209</a>. Window altar services will be available starting September 14th, 2104. Mutant liturgy will be held on <b>Wednesday, September 24th, 2014</b> and <b>(First) Thursday, October 2nd, 2014</b>, both at 7pm.
Other times by appointment.
The installation centers around three (3) altars that will test and train the public by subjecting them to a multitude of environmental discomforts while playing augmented versions of the 1982 8-bit twitch arcade game Roboton 2084. Participants will take up the two (2) eight-way joysticks to battle both on-screen Robotrons and real-world stimuli manifested from in-game events. These futile efforts will be celebrated and archived on a videographed leaderboard.
Church organizers will be conducting research and performing additional tests to determine if the mutant savior walks among us today. Devotees and skeptics alike are invited to take in a recorded (or live!) sermon from a church prophet and to learn more about Robotron prophecy and culture in the reading room.
The last human family must survive, and it is through experiential Error, deep understanding of Futility, and the Mutant Savior’s anti-robot chest-mounted turreted lasers that our human culture can continue to thrive.
<h2>About The Church of Robotron</h2>
The Church of Robotron is an avant-fanatical post-apocalyptic videogame cyber-religion based in the 1980s but born in the 2000s in Portland, OR. The CoR has installed/performed at ToorCamp in Neah Bay, held public devivals in Portland, and celebrated with private screenings and public swearing over low scores.

Diode is Portland’s flagship art gallery dedicated to electronic and and electro-interactive works.

Tonight's "back-to-school" presentation will feature two speakers to share facts and opinions on what works (or not) for mobile devices in education.
To start us off, Thor Prichard will share slides about device adoption data, implementation trends and use case examples before sharing advice about what to do (and not do) when building an app for schools.
Following him will be Sean Williams, who will walk through how different devices are used at different grade levels, why Google ChromeBooks have become so popular in education, explain the constraints in education (power, wifi coverage, bandwidth, student data privacy) and give a wishlist of what educators wish app developers would build for education.

This event is for local software developer user groups to get together for a potluck and to have a good time in the summer weather.
This will be a very casual geek event with outdoor activities, games, socialization, and potluck(ish) so be sure to bring the whole family and any outdoor friendly games you'd like to share!
This year, let's go to the Jade district's new night market. There will be entertainment, shops, food, and people to meet and socialize with! We can have a potlucky type thing, though there will be food vendors there too.
