description nil The IndieWeb movement is a global community that is building an open set of principles and methods that empower people to take back ownership of identity and data instead of sharecropping on 3rd party websites. Join us in downtown Portland for two days of a BarCamp-style gathering of web creators building and sharing open web technologies to empower users to own their own identities & content, and advance the state of the indie web! You’ll learn about ways to empower yourself to own your data, create and publish content on your own site, and only optionally syndicate to third-party silos. Along the way you’ll get a solid grounding in the history and future of domain ownership, Microformats, IndieAuth, Webmention, Micropub and more!

How much advice should you take from so-called mentors? Is it possible to love too many things at once? Why hasn’t school made you the programming wizard you’d hoped to become? Admit it: you’re a little intrigued. I’m going to tell you my story—the bumps and scrapes and occasional victories experienced over my nearly twenty years as a web developer. I’ve learned a few things that can hopefully help you succeed on your new self-guided journey.

description nil #[Top Lessons Learned While Researching and Writing The DevOps Handbook](https://impactflow.com/event/2629/checkout/tickets) ** **› Please also RSVP via [Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/New-Relic-FutureTalks-PDX/events/238935649/)** After over five years of work, The DevOps Handbook is finally out! The original plan was for this book to come out before The Phoenix Project in 2013, but we delayed the Handbook because there was so much about DevOps that needed to go into the book, but I personally didn’t understand well enough. In this talk, I will share my top learnings while co-authoring this book with Jez Humble, Patrick Debois, and John Willis. This will include specific DevOps transformation case studies around value stream mapping, continuous integration and delivery, how organizational design, Conway’s Law and architecture are all needed for the achievement of DevOps outcomes, as well concrete techniques to build a culture of continuous experimentation learning. I will describe some of my favorite case studies, including those from Google, Etsy, LinkedIn, Target, Nordstrom, Capital One, Nationwide Insurance and more. The DevOps Handbook has 48 case studies, and for people who want to research more, there are 503 endnotes and 192 footnotes. ***Gene Kim*** *is a multiple award-winning CTO, researcher and author. He was founder and CTO of Tripwire for 13 years. He has written three books, including “The Phoenix Project: A Novel About IT, DevOps, and Helping Your Business Win” and the newly-released “The DevOps Handbook.” Since 2014, he has been the organizer of the DevOps Enterprise Summit.* ##Details **** NOTE: please also REGISTER** for the event via ImpactFlow. We apologize for the extra step, but this will help us continue to provide the best possible free events to the Portland tech and startup communities. **• Doors will open at 5:30 for a networking happy hour!** The food, beer and drinks are provided by Bellagios and New Relic. **• The presentation will begin at 6:30p.** **• NOTE: after the event**, everyone is invited to continue networking at a special happy hour opportunity, one story up at Portland City Grill. › Stay tuned for the latest developments and updates on this and upcoming events by joining our Meetup group, **New Relic FutureTalks PDX** (link above), and following us on Twitter **@newrelic**. Check out our **[blog](https://blog.newrelic.com/author/christian-sinai/)** for event recaps and videos. › FutureTalk is brought to you by **New Relic** in collaboration with **TAO**.

Many breadcrumb-like tools and functions already exist (using `find-tag` and `pop-tag` is one of these), but writing your own breadcrumb functions with marks from your own favorite commands, could be both fun and useful when jumping around a large code base or document. We’re planning on pair programming to come up with a couple of implementations and share our implementations and discoveries. Hope to see you there. Time permitting, we will have **lightning talks** about anything interesting our local hackers have found or made. If you have something to share, by all means, come along. This will be followed by **Office Hours**, where we can all get together and discuss, fix or hack on new or existing projects. If you have a little or big project or problem you'd like to solve, bring it, and pair up with someone who may have some experience in that area. Hope to see you all there! **Note:** We've started a PDX-oriented Emacs Slack group, **pdx-emacs.slack.com**. Interested? Contact someone in the group to get an invitation.

description PLUG: Portland's monthly, three-track open source conference! Celebrating 20 years of hosting Portland's best open source and technology freedom speakers. This month's topic To Be Announced First Thursday: General Meeting at PSU Third Tuesday: Advanced Topics at Free Geek Third Sunday: Hands-on Clinic at Free Geek PLUG: Portland's monthly, three-track open source conference! Who: Mike Jang<br> What: Microcopy: The Art of User Interface Text<br> Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level)<br> When: Thursday, April 6th, 2017 at 7pm<br> Why: The pursuit of technology freedom<br> Stream: http://pdxlinux.org/live No one in fact wants to Read The Fine Manual. Adding a user should not require a manual and developers insist they don't need one. This puts the burden on the web and desktop UI designer who must be extremely communicative with only a handful of words. This talk will walk you through lessons learned writing Microcopy in applications of all sizes. As a senior technical writer for ForgeRock, Mike Jang spends much of his time documenting how deployers can modify JavaScript to customize web applications.

create Calagator::Event 1250471749 We Come From the Future - Comparing Portland to Vancouver, BC. Roll back

description nil As Portland sits on the precipice of considerable growth, one wonders what the future will hold. Will the city embrace and sustain the coming changes, allowing for prosperity, access and affordability for all its residents? And what will be the engine of change and growth, providing high-quality employment as the local economy continues to shift away from resource industries? While it is tempting to look to our Bay Area neighbors to the south as an indicator of Portland’s future, a better analogy may be found from our friends in the north. From the perspective of population size and geographical boundaries, Vancouver, British Columbia bears a strong resemblance to PDX. With an economy that has been trying to transition from forestry and mining to high-tech and knowledge jobs, Vancouver has bore the brunt of the influence of extreme, external wealth. In many ways, it may show a crystal ball 10 to 15 years in the future. <strong>Keith Lay</strong> is a recent transplant to Portland from Vancouver, BC, where he ran a design and software development agency. In the last decade and a half, he has seen the effects rapid change and wealth on his city. On April 20th at New Relic, he will give a presentation that compares such issues of housing cost and affordability, the impact on neigborhoods, small businesses and schools, and the effects this has had on a nascent high-tech scene. He will then be joined by a high-octane panel of Portland’s cognoscenti to discuss what Portland’s future may hold: <strong>Kevin Cavenaugh</strong> is the principal of Guerrilla Development Co., which designs and builds many of the spaces Portland’s up and coming businesses choose to take root. <strong>Sarah Iannarone</strong> is the Associate Director at First Stop Portland (at PSU), and is an urban best practices expert advising leaders around the globe on how to build better cities and regions. <strong>Stephen Green</strong> is the Portland city manager for Townsquared, and a long time champion of local high-tech and small businesses from a development and financing perspective <strong>Malia Spencer</strong> is a journalist and tech reporter for the Portland Business Journal, as well having her finger on the pulse of the local business world. <strong>Rick Turoczy</strong> is the founder of Silicon Florist and Portland Incubator Experiment, and is engaged in numerous projects around the Portland start-up scene. We will discuss the impacts of rapid growth and the influx of external capital on communities, people and business, look at potential solutions to the negative impacts, and find ways to frame the conversation that works for all stakeholders. Date: Thursday April 20th Time: 5:30 - 7:30 pm Place: New Relic, 27th Floor, 111 SW 5th Ave. <strong>New Relic</strong> is a software development company that is helping thousands of customers consistently improve their software performance, every day, all day.
