Whether you’re a designer or a manager, Project Management for Humans will help you estimate and plan tasks, scout and address issues before they become problems, and communicate with and hold people accountable.</p> <p>About the author:</p> <p>Brett Harned is a digital project management consultant, coach, and community advocate from Philadelphia, PA. His work focuses on solving issues that are important to organizations who want to produce quality digital projects in harmony.

Prior to starting his consultancy, he was Vice President of Project Management for Happy Cog. In that role, he mentored a team of PMs and managed projects for companies like Zappos, MTV, and Monotype. Brett began blogging about his adventures in project management at brettharned.com when he realized that there was a void in the industry for people in the digital PM role.

Proceeds will go to Girls Inc. Girls Inc. of the Pacific Northwest inspires all girls to be strong, smart, and bold. They equip girls aged 6-18 with the skills and confidence to access a bright and economically-independent future, through after school programs and experiences that help girls grow up to be healthy, educated, and independent. Note, this is a volunteer event that requires 3-4 hours of standing, walking, and sales of raffle tickets to the general public. Talking points to assist with sales will be provided. Additionally, volunteers will be provided tickets to the Blazers game to watch the second half. Agenda: 4:50 p.m. - meet at Moda Center box office to check-in as a volunteer (all volunteers must arrive before 5 p.m.) and receive instructions 5:00 p.m. - leave box office to enter Moda Center 5:30 p.m. - doors open to general public, sales begin End of halftime - turn in equipment at 5050 booth on the 100 level concourse near entry to A7 After equipment is returned, volunteers can leave or enjoy the remainder of the game from their seats. Event FAQ Q: Will there be gender neutral restrooms? A: Yes, Gender neutral bathrooms are located at A21 on the 100-Level, and C15 on the 300-Level. Q: Is the space ADA accessible? A: Volunteers will be circulating the building for about 3 hours, and so it does require the ability to stand/walk for about that long. Should that be a barrier for some, we do have a booth on the 3rd level that will require 2 volunteers to be stationary. The building is ADA accessible, and there are also ADA tickets available for the game afterwards. If any volunteers require ADA accessible game tickets, please let us know in advance so we can reserve some! Q: Where there be food and drink at this event? A: None will be provided.

But what about the communities that radicalize and transform the world, enacting power from below, using digital technology? With a series of guest speakers and artists from Portland’s tech and creative scene, we will examine: <ul> <li>The question of digital globalization and the emergence of tech in Africa, Latin America, and in indigenous communities.</li> <li>What it means to be an engineer: How do gender, race, and place affect who is recognized as such, and who is not?</li> <li>The relationship of Black aesthetics, girl culture, and the global arts to the digital world, which draws heavily from this creativity in form and content.</li> <li>Ways to advocate for distributing digital resources to marginalized groups in the Portland area and beyond.</li> </ul> Instructor: Ali Colleen Neff, Ph.D. is a digital anthropologist, UX researcher, and the founder of CultureEncode, a center for advocacy and consulting for digital diversity.

description Capitalism loves automation. Since the beginning of industrialization 250 years ago, businesses have been replacing human labor with machines. For the last 60 years, globalization has shifted American labor to other countries. And now, the advent of artificial intelligence will eliminate even more jobs. In this course, we will: -Consider how a jobless future could create unmatched disruption and suffering -- or limitless opportunity for human flourishing. <br>-Discuss how not to be a replaceable commodity in a gig economy. <br>-Strategize how to position ourselves as stakeholders in the emerging automated economy. <br> Instructor: Douglas Tsoi, JD, is the founder of Portland Underground Grad School (PUGS), a school for everyday life. Before PUGS, he managed a $4 million education and training program at the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance. Previous careers include teaching high school history and ethics, as well as being a intellectual property lawyer. Meets March 7, 14, 21, & 28 from 6:30pm to 8:30pm.

They become overwhelmed by the enormous amount of information to learn and do not know where to start. To rectify that, we have a group of women speaking who can demystify some of the tools, jargon, and jobs around software: Polina Vorozheykina, a software engineer at New Relic, will share her experience entering the industry into a far more senior team of 12 engineers. She will cover useful terminology to know, how to go about asking questions, and how to begin building broad software expertise. Ashley Puls, a principal engineer and architect at New Relic, will cover some useful tools and terminology engineers encounter on a daily basis. Elisa Binette, the senior manager of Site Reliability Engineering at New Relic, will demystify some of the roles and job titles used in the technology industry. What’s a full stack, front end, or backend engineer? What’s a DBA? What are the key differences between a senior, lead, or engineering manager? Afterwards, beginning engineers should better understand common technology terms and the desired skills within each role. They should have “lay of the land” and feel empowered to go out and learn. Agenda: 5:30 p.m. - Doors open 6:00 p.m. - Introduction 6:10 p.m. - Talks begin 7:00 p.m. - Q&A, networking 7:30 p.m. - Event ends Event FAQ: Q: Will there be gender neutral restrooms?

A: Yes, public transportation is best. Purpose: PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities.

This month Kurtis is going to introduce us to a few cloud providers, and then examine basic Provisioning and Configuration. We'll learn hands on by provisioning a new server on Vultr. After the new server is up and running, we'll install some packages and do some basic PHP configuration to get a basic app up and running. We'll discuss the differences between running PHP as an Apache module (mod-php), a FastCGI script, or processing the code through PHP-FPM unix socket. Level up your server knowledge to level up your career.</p> → <p>Due to weather this meetup is canceled</p>

There is, however, a MAX stop (Orenco station, blue line) about a 10 minute walk away. Purpose: PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women. Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our purpose are welcome.
