Squawkathon
Roll back

Calling all designers, programmers and eco-warriors:
endangered seabirds need your help.
THE PROBLEM
Seabird bycatch is when birds are unintentionally captured and killed in fishing activities. For example, in longline fishing, birds take the bait meant for fish, are hooked, and drown. Bycatch is always bad, but for endangered species with already vulnerable populations, itâs devastating. But there is hope. Better data collection could lead to better longterm management and protection protocols. We need to find an ingenious way to track this bycatch. And we think you can help. Somewhere, thereâs a feathered friend who will thank you for it.
WHY ME?
If you have an industrial design, UX design, programming, data science or project management background and care deeply about beautiful flying squawky things, youâre an essential addition. Plus youâll be surrounded by lots of other smart, dedicated eco-warriors. Itâll be a lot of fun.
WAIT, HOLD ON...
WHATâS A HACKATHON?
A hackathon is an event where creative and tech-savvy people collaborate to build solutions for hard-to-solve problems.
The event is being hosted by Context Partners and sponsored by The David and Lucile Packard Foundation.
RSVP and get more info including FAQ and wiki at http://www.squawkathon.org |

"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 [Large-Scale Matrix Factorization
with Distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent](http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~rgemulla/publications/gemulla11dsgd.pdf) by Gemulla, Haas, Nijkamp and Sismanis. 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. |

TAO QA Webinar: Crowd Source Testing
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Crowdsourcing has become widely acknowledged as a productivity solution across numerous industries. However, for companies incorporating crowdsourcing into existing business practices, specific issues must be addressed: What problem are we trying to solve? How do we control the process? How do we incentivize people to achieve our goals? Ultimately, the key to successfully employing a crowdsourcing model is to move beyond the realm of the "mob" to create an engaged, interactive community of diverse and skilled professionals. In the world of quality assurance, crowdsourcing has the potential to effectively solve emerging challenges and take your testing to new heights. Using real-world examples, uTest's John Montgomery explains how you can leverage the crowd to complement your internal systems, ensure systems work as intended under real-world conditions and effectively manage the scalability of efforts. |

Mobile Portland: Hype, Hyperbole and the Hope of the Internet of Things
Roll back

The Internet of Things is a great tag open to a multitude of expansions.
Early Internet architects envisioned small numbers of nodes. The IPV4 address space is on the order of the population of the earth. Internet visionaries like Deborah Estrin and many others foresaw a use case for sensors and new things beyond toasters to connect to the Internet, resulting in IPV6 with 2**95, or about 30 octillion Internet-connected things per person.
Tonight's speaker, Surj Patel, is uniquely situated to give you a view of the Internet of Things. Patel studied at MIT's media lab and mediated discussions of Internet futures at Gigaom. Now he is CEO of an Internet of Things startup. Patel also created and helms the Portland Internet of Things meetup, destined to expand internationally.
Join us for an evening of networking and enlightenment. It is free.

<h2>Let's use our skills to make our community a better place for women and girls!</h2>
Are you a woman interested in brainstorming and creating solutions for a nonprofit? Well, we have the event for you! We're bringing in nonprofits who are focused on women and girls (or issues that women and girls encounter) who have something that they've been struggling with...and our goal is to have a viable solution for each of them by the end of the weekend!
<h3>Do I have the skills to attend?</h3>
<ul>
<li>Are you a women who is 15 years of age or older?</li>
<li>Are you a programmer?</li>
<li>Are you an interface designer?</li>
<li>Are you a manager?</li>
<li>Are you a teacher (either officially or not)?</li>
<li>Do you have experience with psychology?</li>
<li>Are you an artist?</li>
<li>Are you passionate about helping non-profits?</li>
</ul>
If you answered yes to any of those, then yes! You should. We are looking to have teams of women with diverse backgrounds. If you are under 15, let us know and we will see if we can work something out.

Flux Grand Opening
Roll back
| description |

Our first public opening will be September 27th at 6pm featuring an unconference style series of 10 minute talks covering why a feminist hackerspace is necessary in Portland and related topics.
Flux â a new hackerspace in Portland â is the work of a small group of artists and hackers. We found ourselves frustrated with the difficulty of finding welcoming, affordable space for hardware workshops in Portland, OR. Itâs easy to talk software at a bar-- but you canât very well solder arduino boards over brewskies! Also, as members of âtraditionally underrepresented populations,â we found that existing meetups and maker spaces just didnât represent us or cater to our needs. Where are the women, the people of color, the queer folk, the blue collar workers? Where are our trusted allies?
The technology world is often a binder full of testosterone. Weâre tired of the exclusivity that pervades tech culture in this town-- so weâre taking action!
Flux aims to create a new culture of artists, makers, benders and breakers in Portland, OR.
Our workshop is filled with people and tools to help members navigate the technical and emotional hurdles of finishing their dream projects. As an all-volunteer group, FLUX prides itself on maintaining an explicitly feminist space. We strive to make technology inclusive for people of all backgrounds and technical abilities. To that end, we welcome makers of all genders, orientations, and ethnic and cultural heritages.

<h3>What are we doing, exactly?</h3>

Each group will have a representative from the nonprofit to answer any questions.
At the end of the weekend, we want to have a viable solution for the non-profit.

ChickTech Problem-Storming for Nonprofits
Roll back
| description |
Let's use our skills to make our community a better place for women and girls!
Are you a woman interested in brainstorming and creating solutions for a nonprofit? Do you want to talk to nonprofits that are already up, running and fixing the world? Well we have the event for you!! We're bringing in nonprofits who are focused on women and girls (or issues that women and girls encounter) who have something that they've been struggling with...and our goal is to have a viable solution for each of them by the end of the weekend!
Although each project will have a tech component, women with expertise in many different areas will be vital to creating a solid and successful solution. Each team will consist of women with a variety of backgrounds. Some of the areas the teams will need expertise in include technology, nonprofits, marketing, business, psychology, education, and design.
We'll kick off with heavy hors d'oeuvres Friday evening and everyone will choose their projects and meet their team members. Saturday and Sunday, it's all up to the teams to create something amazing! At 4pm Sunday, we'll hear from each team about their solution, and we'll adjourn at 5:30. A light breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided Saturday and Sunday.
We'd love to hear ideas on how to help teams continue working on their projects for the nonprofits!
Childcare will be provided on-site. And we would *love* to have some supportive techie guys help out with the childcare in order to break yet another stereotype! We're hoping to have some fun, hands-on activities for the kids too, depending on ages (and age ranges).
Please let us know if you have a nonprofit you think would like to be involved and get some free problem-solving, or if you'd like to be a volunteer and help to organize this event.

We will head to the Skidmore Bluffs, and then eat food and enjoy a beautiful summer sunset.
Bring your own food, and drink if you want.
Biking is probably easiest. There is also a MAX stop pretty close by, and street parking a few blocks away.
Sunset is at 8:09pm. |

<p>PDXTech4Good will be one of many groups across the NetSquared global network holding a social media-themed event during Social Media September. Our event will feature a crowdsourcing change format. Heres how it works: Two or three local nonprofits (or, patients) will share how theyÂre using online marketing and social media/networking to achieve their goals and objectives. Then the surgeons (thatÂs you!) participate in a facilitated discussion about how each organization might use the social web to even greater effect.</p>
<p><img src="http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/6/9/7/0/event_245606992.jpeg" style="margin: 5px ; float: right;"></p>
<p><strong>Want to be a patient and receive social media surgery?</strong> <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1M9t8VB8atz2N99Wjqkua7Ab45SoMqEvtRiG3rxMMTaE/viewform">Fill out this application.</a> We'll get back to you shortly.</p>
<p>Whether youÂre a social media expert or an interested citizen, your perspectives and opinions are welcome and valuable. So, come and join the crowd with your questions, insights and reactions, and help these local organizations more effectively use social tools to achieve their important objectives. This is a great learning and sharing opportunity--not only for the presenting organizations, but for all participants!</p>
<p>Stop by for discussion, networking with the nonprofit tech crowd, and refreshments!</p>

Tech Sunset Picnic
Roll back
| description |
We will head to the Skidmore Bluffs, and then eat food and enjoy a beautiful summer sunset.
Bring your own food, and drink if you want.
Biking is probably easiest. There is also a MAX stop pretty close by, and street parking a few blocks away. |

Read the Docs Hackathon
Roll back
| description |

We will gather and hack on Read the Docs all day. If you've never contributed before, this is a good chance since both of the main maintainers (one of which is the original author) will be there.
Read the Docs is written in Python but we could also use front end help in the form of design input and css/javascript.
There will (likely) be pizza and beer provided by Mozilla to fuel folks. |
