#AI is comping! Are you ready? The story of “Self-Driving Datacenter”
There is no doubt that Machine Learning finds space in every home today, but what do we know about it and how to apply? During this presentation I will cover:
+ What do we think ML is vs what it is really?
+ Why ML is the right solution using IT operations as an example?
+ How do you build a “self-driving datacenter” using the open tools near you?
+ Where do we go next?
*Sergey Razin is the CTO, Ph.D. in CompSci, engineer by nature, and very passionate about technology. He is a founding member and contributor to a number of successful open source projects in the area of machine learning, semantics, and signal processing, including Sphinx, Boost STL, Asterisk, Pidgin, and Mahout. Sergey has over 15 years of experience in the area of analytics and machine learning where he pioneered application of such in the areas of IT security, media and speech recognition with 10 innovation disclosures in data science, signal processing, speech technologies, and communication protocols. For the past several years Sergey concentrated on applying machine learning to revolutionize IT operations in emerging areas of cloud, virtualization, distributed systems, and software defined datacenter.*
#How Did Artificial Intelligence Win at Go and So What?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have achieved a number of high-profile victories over top humans in a variety of competitions, including Chess (Deep Blue) and Jeopardy (Watson). In contrast, until recently, the ancient game of Go remained an elusive challenge for AI, with many researchers believing that victories over top humans would be decades away.
In March 2016, the program AlphaGo, developed by DeepMind, surprised the research community by defeating the legendary Go professional, Lee Sedol, in a five game match. This achievement was made possible by the integration of several recent AI technologies and a high-performance computing infrastructure. In this talk, I will paint a picture of the main developments leading to AlphaGo and how those developments can have a reach beyond the game of Go.
*Alan Fern is a Professor of Computer Science and Associate Head of Research for the School of EECS at Oregon State University. He received his Ph.D (2004) and M.S (2000) in Computer Engineering from Purdue University under the direction of Robert Givan, and his B.S (1997) in Electrical Engineering from the University of Maine. His research interests span a range of topics in artificial intelligence, including machine learning and automated planning, with a particular interest in work falling at their intersection. He is also interested in applications of AI, including AI for real-time strategy games, security, robotics, public policy, and activity recognition from video of American football and other sports. Fern is a recipient of a National Science Foundation Early CAREER Award, has won a number of best paper awards in top AI venues, and is associate editor for the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, Machine Learning Journal, and the Artificial Intelligence Journal. He is also interested in applications of AI, including AI for real-time strategy games, robotics, public policy, and activity recognition from video of American football and other sports.*
##Details
**• Doors will open at 5:30 for a 30-minute networking happy half-hour!** The food, beer and drinks are provided by Bellagios and New Relic.
**• The presentation will begin right at 6p.**
**• NOTE: after the event**, everyone is invited to continue networking at a special happy hour opportunity, one story up at Portland City Grill.

#AI is comping! Are you ready? The story of “Self-Driving Datacenter”
There is no doubt that Machine Learning finds space in every home today, but what do we know about it and how to apply? During this presentation I will cover:
+What do we think ML is vs what it is really?
+Why ML is the right solution using IT operations as an example?
+How do you build a “self-driving datacenter” using the open tools near you?
+Where do we go next?
*Sergey Razin is the CTO, Ph.D. in CompSci, engineer by nature, and very passionate about technology. He is a founding member and contributor to a number of successful open source projects in the area of machine learning, semantics, and signal processing, including Sphinx, Boost STL, Asterisk, Pidgin, and Mahout. Sergey has over 15 years of experience in the area of analytics and machine learning where he pioneered application of such in the areas of IT security, media and speech recognition with 10 innovation disclosures in data science, signal processing, speech technologies, and communication protocols. For the past several years Sergey concentrated on applying machine learning to revolutionize IT operations in emerging areas of cloud, virtualization, distributed systems, and software defined datacenter.*
#How Did Artificial Intelligence Win at Go and So What?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have achieved a number of high-profile victories over top humans in a variety of competitions, including Chess (Deep Blue) and Jeopardy (Watson). In contrast, until recently, the ancient game of Go remained an elusive challenge for AI, with many researchers believing that victories over top humans would be decades away.
In March 2016, the program AlphaGo, developed by DeepMind, surprised the research community by defeating the legendary Go professional, Lee Sedol, in a five game match. This achievement was made possible by the integration of several recent AI technologies and a high-performance computing infrastructure. In this talk, I will paint a picture of the main developments leading to AlphaGo and how those developments can have a reach beyond the game of Go.
*Alan Fern is a Professor of Computer Science and Associate Head of Research for the School of EECS at Oregon State University. He received his Ph.D (2004) and M.S (2000) in Computer Engineering from Purdue University under the direction of Robert Givan, and his B.S (1997) in Electrical Engineering from the University of Maine. His research interests span a range of topics in artificial intelligence, including machine learning and automated planning, with a particular interest in work falling at their intersection. He is also interested in applications of AI, including AI for real-time strategy games, security, robotics, public policy, and activity recognition from video of American football and other sports. Fern is a recipient of a National Science Foundation Early CAREER Award, has won a number of best paper awards in top AI venues, and is associate editor for the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, Machine Learning Journal, and the Artificial Intelligence Journal. He is also interested in applications of AI, including AI for real-time strategy games, robotics, public policy, and activity recognition from video of American football and other sports.*

ESP8266 for Beginners
The ESP8266 allows you to create small microcontroller based projects that can be controlled via web interfaces. So you can control your project from your phone with a nice UI! Meaning you can get your project running faster because you don't have to create a full hardware UI for your project. We'll get the Arduino IDE up and running and try a few different programming options. We'll be programming the NodeMcu. This is a beginner class.
Instructor: Thomas Hudson
Sunday November 13th, Noon to 3pm at
Ctrl-H, 7608 N. Interstate, Portland, OR 97217
Cost: $25 goes to Ctrl-H and cost of hardware
RSVP required! Limited to 15 people! RSVP to [email protected] |

BarCamps are free unconferences where the people who show up on the day of the conference decide what the conference is about. It has been shown time and time again to produce some of the best material available. The spontaneity of the entire event stands in stark contrast to the more planned conferences you may have been to. Essentially the entire conference is a hallway track, and many people feel it’s the best quality of BarCamps!
The CAT at PSU is an ops training organization that has secured the venue and is organizing the event. We expect many job-hungry students skilled in development, computer science, operations, and everything else to be in attendance at this event and we want to enable as many connections as possible.
Although registration is not required please RSVP at http://goo.gl/VlNKcU so that our organizers can plan accordingly. |

Entrepreneurs are often told to “network” their way to investors, mentors, and business partners. But this can be scary if you’re not comfortable, don’t know where to start or what to say. Come get some practice building your social capital game.
Do successful networkers have a secret? Do the top networkers talk differently? Have different body language? Respond in different ways depending on the conversation starter? We want to help you better understand what it means to be a successful networker.
Details:
The OEN PubTalk™ is our flagship monthly happy hour — a perfect starting point for new community members and a great place for established members to make new connections.
For our November PubTalk, we have partnered with a local research team, the Science of People who will be running a little experiment on networking behavior. They will ask you to fill-out a little pre and post survey as your enter and exit the event and will be observing during the event. We will share the results for you in a few months! (If you would like to opt-out, no problem! Just let us know at the door.)
*Please note our special schedule!*
5:15 pm – Registration, Pizza & Informal Networking
5:30 pm – Welcome & Announcements
5:40 pm – Speed Networking
6:20 pm – Break & reconfigure room
6:30 pm – Vanessa Van Edwards speaks on the Science of Networking

November PMI Agile Roundtable - Effective Conflict Engagement with Jean Richardson
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Agile teams are all about high bandwidth cross-functional communication. But, we can get really jumpy about conflict. Creative conflict is where the good stuff is in product development and innovation.
In her travels Jean has had the opportunity to observe a large number of teams work together—and attempt to work together. It’s clear that conversations change, the way the team moves together changes, and quality of work changes as the teams consciousness is raised. Many agile practices serve to support the goal of consciousness raising. Through observation, research, and experimentation, Jean has developed a working definition of team consciousness which will be a useful tool for you as you lead agile projects.
Come learn about how effective conflict engagement deepens consciousness and what we mean when we talk about consciousness and software development. Jean’s style is dialogic, so expect to interact!

Through more than 25 years of experience in software development she consulted in project management, writing, training, public speaking, and business analysis, and the last five years as an Agile coach helping leaders transform organizations.

Strata: Portraits of Humanity features Roman lead coffin and Maya rain ceremony
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
See the detailed examination of a Roman coffin burial in England and witness a real Maya rain ceremony in the October 2016 edition of Strata: Portraits of Humanity, available online and on TV:
(1) Metal detectorists discover a lead coffin in a field near Ilchester in Somerset, England. The local police call in the archaeologists. They take the coffin back to the South West Heritage Trust Laboratory, where they open and excavate the coffin and discover a young woman’s skeleton. (2) Paul Hixon participated as a student in an ethnobotany field school in the Yucatan, Mexico, at the village and ancient Maya site of Yaxunah. His film covers the Ch’a Chaak ceremony, which appeals to the Maya god Chaak to bring rain for the recently planted corn.
Unlike any other show available anywhere, Strata is a fresh monthly showcase for unique, captivating and diverse stories about our cultural heritage from an archaeological perspective. We have a video promo for the show at https://youtu.be/xYSS2kUCsFE. Check it out!
You can see this monthly half-hour show on our nonprofit streaming-media Web site, The Archaeology Channel as well as on cable TV in cities across the US and even in Serbia. Strata program details can be found at http://www.archaeologychannel.org/video-guide/strata-portraits-of-humanity. The growing list of cable TV stations carrying the show is available at. They include placement in the local on-demand menu of Comcast Cable in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and California.
This and other programs are available on TAC for your use and enjoyment. We urge you to support this public service by participating in our Membership and Underwriting programs. Only with your help can we continue and enhance our nonprofit public-education and visitor-supported programming. We also welcome new content partners as we reach out to the world community.

Data and good intentions are no longer enough in a world where the lines are increasingly blurred between online and offline experiences. People need products that support the broad spectrum of human experience. By practicing awareness we can create designs that help people do what they need to do, even when life is hard.
<h3>Our Presenter, Beth Dean</h3>
Beth is an illustrator and designer in San Francisco. She currently works at Facebook on transparency in advertising and dabbles in LGBTQ policy advocacy. When she’s not drawing or at a computer she can be found on a mountain peak.
She’s led design and product for analytics and news startups, and worked with big brands like Hotwire, Progressive Insurance and American Greetings. In addition to her own books, her comics have been featured in SPIN, various anthologies, and galleries around the country. She’s spoken around the world about emotional intelligence in design, and queer identity in comics, at places like: San Diego Comic-Con, Stumptown Comics Fest, Alternative Press Expo, From the Front, Industry, and more.

"Beer of Trust" is a key signing party with beer!
## What's a key-signing party?
A key-signing party is a get-together with PGP users for the purpose of meeting other PGP users and signing each other's keys. This helps to extend the "web of trust" to a great degree. Also, it sometimes serves as a forum to discuss strong cryptography and related issues.
We'll start signing at 6:30pm after we've settled in with some beers. This will be run more along the lines of an [informal key signing party](http://cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/keysigning_party/en/keysigning_party.html#traditional).
## What do I need for this party?
Required Items:
* A picture ID
* Your key ID, key type, hex fingerprint, and key size
* A pen/pencil or whatever you'd like to write with
* A computer is not required, and it is not recommended to use your computer to sign keys at the event
Some useful links for generating and backing up your key can be found [here](http://pin13.net/2016-11-07-key-signing-party/).

On Building Great Products from Startup to Massive Scale with Peter van Hardenberg
Roll back
| description |
Building great products takes a lot of work, but hard work isn't enough on its own. No matter what you're building, you're going to need a plan for how you'll get there. In this talk, we'll talk about the Heroku Postgres team's working habits as it scaled a 24x7 high-availability product while maintaining close contact with its users over a long period. We'll focus on the specific and practical techniques the team used to plan, organize, and execute its work, and talk about the principles behind them. After a tour of some of these techniques, Heroku Postgres founding member Peter van Hardenberg will answer your questions about scaling from startup to acquisition and massive scale.
<strong>Speaker Bio: </strong><p>
Peter van Hardenberg was an early team member at Heroku and co-founded Heroku's Department of Data, the team behind Heroku Postgres. Heroku was acquired by Salesforce.com in December 2010 for $212M less than four years after founding. Prior to joining Heroku, he worked as an Arctic oceanographer, game developer, and Shakespearean scholar. He lives in San Francisco and, among other things, advises high-growth software companies like Zapproved and Auth0.</p>

IoT Hackathon 2016
Roll back
| description |
Join Women Who Code Portland the weekend of December 2nd-4th for our very first **IoT Hackathon**! The theme is **Sustainable Cities**; we are looking for ways to minimize the required inputs of energy, water and food. On a smaller scale, how can we preserve energy and prevent wasteful consumption in the home and/or at work?
We are thrilled to be partnering up with Intel to bring you the Intel Edison hardware kits to play with and build cool apps. Other sponsors for the event include Simple, Airbnb, Mozilla, Metal Toad, Donut.js, and PolySync.
The goal of the hackathon is to learn new programming skills, have fun, and work in teams to build sustainability solutions. We want to provide a space for people of all backgrounds to learn about IoT, work on a new portfolio project, or spend all weekend tinkering with hardware. All levels are welcome! You will be working in teams of 3-5 to come up with the next great solution for Sustainable Cities!
**SCHEDULE**
- Friday: 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM
- Saturday: 9:00 AM - 10:00 PM
- Sunday: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Join Women Who Code Portland the weekend of December 2nd-4th for our very first **IoT Hackathon**! The theme is **Sustainable Cities**; we are looking for ways to minimize the required inputs of energy, water and food. On a smaller scale, how can we preserve energy and prevent wasteful consumption in the home and/or at work?
We are thrilled to be partnering up with Intel to bring you the Intel Edison hardware kits to play with and build cool apps. Other sponsors for the event include Simple, Airbnb, Mozilla, Metal Toad, Donut.js, and PolySync.
The goal of the hackathon is to learn new programming skills, have fun, and work in teams to build sustainability solutions. We want to provide a space for people of all backgrounds to learn about IoT, work on a new portfolio project, or spend all weekend tinkering with hardware. All levels are welcome! You will be working in teams of 3-5 to come up with the next great solution for Sustainable Cities!
**SCHEDULE**
- Friday: 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM
- Saturday: 9:00 AM - 10:00 PM
- Sunday: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
