description nil → About the event Most organizations want to succeed at what they do, right? And an inclusive workplace is a key aspect of successful organizations. What does an inclusive workplace feel like? What behaviors make people feel like they’re part of the team? These questions must be answered if the goal is to create an environment where everyone can grow and thrive. To build such a culture, there are specific strategies that can be employed in any organization. Join us for the SIM Portland November 2018 meeting when we will discuss the concepts of diversity and inclusion, along with the behaviors that make it possible – or impossible – to achieve true workplace inclusion and highly effective organizations. Key topics that will be explored include, • Key aspects of successful organizations • The concepts of diversity and inclusion • Strategies that create an inclusive workplace • What does this all mean to IT leadership? How can you create an environment where everyone can grow and thrive. The Distinguished Panelists • Bob Leek, Interim Director and Chief Information Officer, Department of County Assets at Multnomah County, Oregon • Kory Murphy, Equity and Inclusion Manager, Department of County Assets, Multnomah County, Oregon Agenda 5:30 PM Social 6:30 PM Dinner 6:50 PM Meeting Start 7:00 PM Keynote and Q&A 8:15 PM Close

description nil → <i><b>What is Technology?</b></i> (2019) will examine the vortices of interaction among practical arts and tools, techniques and processes, moral knowledge and imagination to navigate our everchanging media/life/universe. In a broad sense, technology can be understood as methods of intelligent inquiry and problem-solving in all domains of human life. The conference-experience will enact a collaborative network of transdisciplinary research by cultivating communication as the heart of science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics, and environments. This year marks the ten-year anniversary and ninth annual What is…?, bringing together natural and social scientists, scholars, government officials, industry professionals, artists and designers, as well as alumni, students, community organizations, and the public. <a href="https://blogs.uoregon.edu/whatistechnology/cfp/"><b>–> CALL FOR PROPOSALS </b></a><br> (Due by December 21, 2018) <blockquote> <b>“Pattern recognition in the midst of a huge overwhelming destructive force is the way out of the maelstrom. The huge vortices of energy created by our media present us with similar possibilities of evasion of consequences of destruction. By studying the patterns of the effects of this huge vortex of energy in which we are involved, it may be possible to program a strategy of evasion and survival.”</b> —Marshall McLuhan, 1979</blockquote>

description nil → TestML - Data Driven Testing for All Modern Programming Languages In 2004 I created the Test::Base data driven testing module for CPAN. It became popular with several prolific CPAN authors like MIYAGAWA and became the main testing framework for companies like Socialtext and OpenResty, In 2010 I decided to "Acmeize" it and I made TestML with the intent of making it work in all programming languages. I got it going in Perl5/CPAN and a couple other languages. In 2017 OpenResty paid me to write a new version of the language in their proprietary ecosystem, and the resulting idea was really much better. They allowed me to take the new ideas to Open Source and in 2018 I have the new great TestML language. It is currently working in 8 languages (Bash, CoffeeScript, Go, JavaScript, Perl 5, Perl 6, Python 2 and Python 3) and easy to port. Other ports are under way including C++. The official YAML test suite is written in TestML! In this talk I will: - Introduce you to the TestML language (it's so simple, most programs are a single line!) - Show how TestML works well with any language's existing test frameworks - Show how to use in Perl 5 and 6 and others - Show how the language is compiled to Lingy (a JSON based Lisp) - Show how to port TestML to a new programming language or test framework - and much more!

description nil → <p>Please join us for the next Portland AWS User Group Meetup on Thursday, November 8, hosted by KinderCare Education.</p> <p>TOPIC: Amazon Sumerian - Create and Host Immersive AR and VR Content for the 3D Web, using only a Web Browser.</p> <p>Presenters:<br>• Dennis Baker, KinderCare Education</p> <p>• Kyle Roche, General Manager, Amazon Sumerian</p> <p>Schedule:</p> <p>• 6:00 PM: Check-in and Happy Hour</p> <p>• 6:30 PM: Demo and Deep Dive</p> <p>• 7:45 PM: Q&A</p> <p>A special thanks to our host KinderCare Education. Headquartered in Portland, KinderCare Education is an experience-based provider of early education and child care, serving 170,000 children and their families across the country every day.</p> <p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/sumerian/" class="linkified">https://aws.amazon.com/sumerian/</a><br><a href="http://www.kc-education.com/" class="linkified">http://www.kc-education.com/</a></p> <p>Details:<br>Take yourself back to 1998, when the first websites were being built. What tool did they use? For many it was a tool like Dreamweaver: expensive, complex, on-premise software. Fast forward to 2018. What do people use now? Tools like Wordpress, Wix, Weebly and Shopify. These tools are cloud-based, pay-as-you-go, and simple yet powerful. Content creation for the 3D web (including AR and VR) is high friction today. Businesses have devices and problems to solve but the content creation tools feel like we’re stuck in the 90’s.</p> <p>Kyle Roche, GM of AR/VR at Amazon Web Services, will discuss how AWS leverages their cloud offerings to simplify content creation for the 3D web. Amazon Sumerian allows non-3D experts to create AR and VR content using only a web browser. Content can be easily published to end-users who then decide how they want to consume the experience. Learn how you can develop dynamic, immersive customer engagements that can experienced via advertising signage, in-store retail displays, websites, mobile devices, or VR headsets. With Sumerian, you can build once and publish widely.</p>

description nil → <p>Details<br>Same place, still looking for speakers. If you have anything you would like to present, let me know!</p> <p>If you need parking, there's a parking deck below Safeway.</p> <p>Agenda:</p> <p>6:00 p.m.: Food, beverage, and networking</p> <p>6:40 p.m.: Welcome message by Karl Fezer</p> <p>6:45 p.m: Speaker 1: "Transfer Learning, or How to Stand on the Shoulders of Giants" - James DiPadua<br>7:30 p.m: Speaker 2: "Quantum Mechanics for Modeling Composite Semantic Spaces" - Connor Favreau<br>8:15 p.m.- 8:30: Project Ideas. Pitch your Project Ideas to this meetup group</p> <p>8:30: End</p> <p>Speaker 1 Details:</p> <p>Abstract:</p> <p>There's been a mountain of research into Deep Neural Networks' practical applications in image, audio and text processing. But these deep networks are often built on large corpuses of data (such as ImageNet or Wikipedia).</p> <p>But that may not apply directly to your domain. Gathering data specific to your problem space may not only be a lengthy process but an expensive one too. That makes the business win a hard sell.</p> <p>Transfer Learning can dramatically eliminate many of those problems, quickly.</p> <p>In 'How to stand on the shoulders of giants,' we'll discuss the research background into Transfer Learning and how to implement the process in either Keras or PyTorch. The goal is for listeners to feel comfortable with the concept and prepared to begin researching an application in their workspaces.</p> <p>Bio:</p> <p>James is a wanderer, tinkerer, and ponderer. Not one to be pinned down, he's more comfortable in the abstract than in the known. He embraces ambiguity with a bearhug. That's a trick of course. He bear hugs the ambiguity into little mathematical boxes and then says "Dance!" and, oh, how that ambiguity dances! James currently hangs his hat at Vacasa where he works as a Senior Data Scientist tackling a myriad of growth-objectives with engineering and machine learning.</p> <p>Speaker 2 Details:</p> <p>Five years ago, Word2Vec offered a leap forward for the average data scientist to perform efficient algorithms in Natural Language Processing. From a body of text, Word2Vec generates a semantic space, in which the trained word vectors are often highly associated with their meaning. The next leap, a semantic space for phrases and sentences, proves tougher both computationally and in faithfully representing a composite meaning over multiple words. Surprisingly, quantifying particle interactions a la quantum mechanics shares close mathematical similarity to quantifying the meaning of words, phrases, and sentences. In this talk, I will provide an overview of current techniques in modeling language past word vectors, as well as point out the quantum mechanical aspects of these techniques. Emphasis will be placed on the “Compositional Distributional Semantics” model for the task of identifying word ambiguity."</p>

create Calagator::Event 1250474508 Creating Interactive Software Objects with Clojurescript w/ Dan Lidral-Porter Roll back

description nil → For a few years, I've been trying to create UIs that have a consistency, tangibility, and predictability akin to that of physical objects. I think this results in software that is easy for the average person to use and understand. The only way I know how to describe the kinds of behaviors that result in the physicality I seek is with state machines. I've built a library called Plastic that lets me define state machines composed of pure functions triggered by DOM events. This allows me to express the behaviors making up the UI in almost exactly the same way I design them with pen and paper, all the while hiding mutation in the implementation in fine Clojurian fashion. In this talk I'll describe my philosophy of UI design in more detail, provide some examples of the physicality I'm aiming for, and show how one is implemented using Plastic. If time and enthusiasm allows, we can collaboratively define another simple software object using Plastic on the fly, to get a bottom-up perspective in addition to the top-down perspective of the scripted talk. I hope to see you there. -DLP P.S. I am amused to be delivering a talk in defense of objects, but these are strange times we live in.
