COPIOUSLabs TechTalk: The architectural underpinnings of C# with .Net
Roll back
| description |
**About TechTalks:**
COPIOUSLabs TechTalks series meets every other Friday at 1pm at the COPIOUS offices. Our talks span artificial intelligence, new programming languages and techniques, computational linguistics, geographic data processing, systems and software architecture, augmented reality, network security, and more as proposed to the Copious engineering team.
**About this talk:**
As new programming languages emerge, Microsoft's flagship programming language has been evolving to keep up. See how C# and the .NET Framework have incorporated new features such as functional programming, non-blocking code, language integrated queries, and more. This talk compares C# and the .NET Framework to the languages found in the book, Seven Languages in Seven Weeks, and in particular COPIOUS' most "native" tongue, Ruby.
All are welcome to attend. If you have a talk that you'd like to suggest presenting, please email it to [email protected] along with a brief outline of what you'd like to cover. |

CHIFOO Presents Feb 6 Quantifying Kick-Ass ROI from Social & Mobile User Experiences in the Enterprises
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Thanks to mobile device and social networks, enterprise computing stands at the start of the biggest revolution in computing since the transition to client-server. Tablets and smartphones are not laptops with small screens and no keyboards, yet that is how enterprise IT executives persist in treating them. In fact, to fully grasp the potential of these devices, enterprises will need to re-image every business process and user experience in the enterprise. This will be expensive, but when done correctly, the ROI will indeed kick-ass. This talk will address some of the challenges facing companies in thinking about the social, mobile web and how to approach user experience and business process design to achieve kick-ass ROI.
About the Speaker
Since 2002, Paul Brody (@pbrody) has served as a Partner with IBM Global Business Services and Global Lead, Electronics Industry Strategy Practice, and has led engagements with leading electronics companies in the US, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Brody has worked extensively with business strategy, supply chain management and product life cycle management, including planning and scheduling, logistics, and procurement solutions.
Prior to IBM, he held senior supply chain executive positions at ClearCross and i2 Technologies. He has also been a consultant with McKinsey & Co., primarily in the high-tech electronics sector in the United States and across the Asia Pacific region. Brody began his career at Mobile Telecommunications Services Ltd., where he developed marketing programs for one of Africa’s first mobile cellular systems, turning the company into a national brand name. He holds a B.A. in Economics, and a Certificate in African Studies, from Princeton University. |

Mark Lawler on Why He Loves and Hates Agile
One of our local madmen is coming to talk to AgilePDX at Puppet Labs on February 20 at 6:30p. Having clawed his way up from the ranks of programmer, Mark Lawler now sits on top of 40 agile teams at Cambia Health Solutions (formerly Regence Blue Cross/Blue Shield). Barreling his way through yet another enterprise agile transition the last couple of years, Lawler occasionally shouts out the world what he loves and hates about agile to any of us who are willing to listen. Carrying around the title of Chief Technical Officer for one of the largest employers in the Portland metro area doesn’t slow him down one bit. Come prepared to listen to an agile executive talk about why agile is the best way to drive an organization to thrive.
As Lawler says on his blog, “I love Agile; I also hate Agile. I love how it can free teams to truly delight customers while delivering high quality products on time. I hate how Agile zealots can use the Tower of Agile Babble to confuse the heck out of teams trying Agile on for size. My goal is to help new teams actually embrace and become Agile without having to learn all of the pomp and circumstance in one big fat swallow.”
Mark Lawler is the VP and Chief Technology Officer of Cambia Health Solutions, responsible for transformative IT strategies, technologies and efforts for its portfolio companies. With over 30 Agile teams the group delivers and supports solutions across the business spectrum, including award winning products that are sold and hosted in a SaaS model to other leading health insurance payers. A Portland, Oregon based technology executive with over 20 years of experience of delivering software products, Mark believes strongly in the mantra of delivering high quality products on time while delighting customers.
You can find Mark sharing his opinions on technology, software development and quality, as well as Agile methodologies as @mark_lawler on Twitter and through his blog at: http://markslawler.wordpress.com/

Soren Macbeth is the chief data scientist at Yieldbot, co-founder of StockTwits.
His talk will describe, "the various problems and solutions that we've run into at Yieldbot running Hadoop on AWS in the various configuration that we've used over the years. I'll be focusing on a lot of the weird edge cases that are specific to running in AWS."
Should be a fun talk, more technical and Hadoopy than we've had in a while. Nittier, grittier. |

This month's topic: Apache Drill
Apache Drill is new Apache incubator project. It's goal is to provide a distributed system for interactive analysis of large-scale datasets. Inspired by Google's Dremel technology, it aims to process trillions of records in seconds. We will cover the goals of Apache Drill, its use cases and how it relates to Hadoop, MongoDB and other large-scale distributed systems. We'll also talk about details of the architecture, points of extensibility, data flow and our first query languages (DrQL and SQL).
Speaker: Gera Shegalov
Gera Shegalov owns Hadoop MapReduce and Hadoop Core components in MapR's Hadoop Distribution. Prior to MapR, he worked at Oracle in Oracle Database High Availability on (Active) Data Guard, and in Oracle Java Platform Group on JMS backend communication and storage. Gera received Masters and PhD in Computer Science from Saarland University in Saarbruecken, Germany. His research focussed on workflow management, temporal databases, as well as application & database recovery.

What is Agile really?
What are the most important practices in making Agile approaches really successful on my team?

How do Agile frameworks and methods co-exist with project management, process control and other governance structures?
How do we adapt Agile practices to our organizations without diluting them?

Cleanweb PDX Meetup: Monthly Hack, Eat & Drink
Roll back
| description |
nil |

At this monthly meeting, we get together, talk about app ideas for one or two industry (such as sporting apparel, commercial building, food, water, etc). These are the local industry that can use some help to identify solutions to reduce carbon footprint and lessen any negative environmental impact to local residents.
Our goal is to brainstorm innovative ideas utilizing information technology by leveraging the mobile and social web.
Of course, creative juice often comes after a glass of nice brew. That's how drink is involved in this. If you not a drinker, the Pub serves good food of you to hack & eat.
We are not really building an app at the meeting (but if you would like to crank out an app in 90 mins, that would be awesome too). And what are we doing with these ideas? You'll have to come to find out.
For those who won't be able to make it in person you can join via G+ Hangout. Please let me know in advance.
Thanks and hope to see you on the 15th! |

The PSU ACM presents Git For Ages 4 And Up by Michael Schwern
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Bio: Michael G Schwern is the author of Test::More (the Perl testing
system) and Gitpan, 21,000 repositories on Github representing every
release of every Perl module on CPAN. Schwern does not push to master,
master pushes to Schwern.
Synopsis:
Tinker Toys are the best illustration of a Git repository I’ve found.
Side-by-side with issuing Git commands, we’ll build a Git repository out
of kid’s toys to show what’s going on behind the scenes. Mind bending
concepts like remote branches, rebase and the staging area become
child’s play.
Basic knowledge of git commands is expected of the audience (init, add,
commit, diff, log, push, pull). If you’ve started using git, but are
uncomfortable with it and don’t really get it, this is for you.
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD – Small Parts. Not For Children Under 4 Years. |
