create Calagator::Event 1250470298 Building Cross-Platform Desktop Apps in ClojureScript With Electron w/ Josh Miller Roll back

description nil Have you ever wanted to extend your Clojure talents to the desktop? Turned off at the thought of digging into Swing or building native shims around your beautiful functional code? Then look no further than Github's [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/), a cross-platform toolkit for desktop apps using familiar Javascript techniques, which of course we can make much more fun and powerful with Clojurescript. Learn how to build desktop apps with all the custom menus, system notifications, and badges you've come to expect, right from your REPL. # About Josh Miller [Josh Miller](http://joshmiller.io) has been building software professionally for over a decade, in fields ranging from Erlang-backed Twitter crawlers to Objective-C iOS apps, but his heart belongs to Clojure. Josh is a software consultant living in Portland, OR.

create Calagator::Event 1250470294 AgilePDX: Gender and Agile Teams: Good, Bad, or Ugly? Roll back

description nil In September of 2016 the Agile Alliance held a community Open Space meeting in Portland and one of our community facilitated a topic on Agile as a context for improved workplace experience for women. Twelve to fifteen people attended her topic—and split pro and con right down the middle with men and women on both sides. Over the last few months, software-related Meetups all over Portland have held discussions focused on women in STEM and women in software development. Now AgilePDX invites you into an Agile-focused discussion on gender dynamics on Agile teams. What do you think? Has Agile improved, hindered, or left the issue of gender dynamics completely untouched? Does self-organization mean women have more of a voice? When men and women speak up about gender dynamics on teams is anyone left out? What about “gamergate?” Do the Agile Manifesto and Principles imply anything about gender dynamics on teams? And, if so, what is that? Or, is there something additional in the Agile “secret sauce” that improves (or hinders) how men and women work and play together on Agile teams? Would you want your son or daughter on an Agile team? This month, AgilePDX gathers a panel of two men and two women to consider the state of Agile and gender diversity. To follow the conversation before the event, join the AgilePDX Slack.

update Calagator::Event 1250470293 AgilePDX Dntn Pub Lunch: The End of Agile Roll back

description We’ve been hearing about it for years. GROW is the new new thing. DevOps builds on Agile and is the new new thing. Hybrid is bad, and Agile only works if you follow the book—right? You got that book? Are we ineffective, tired, fighting back, plodding on, or something else? Has the practice of what we think of as Agile changed? Can we not be Agile without first being Lean? What about Agile/Lean? When even signers of the Agile Manifesto speak up against Agile, what’s an agilist to think? Or is agile SAFe and sound and the Agile brand has developed a stink? Too many forced marches to agility? Do we need to start calling “agile” “nimble” in order to make progress? And, frankly, how much do we care about what’s in the press? The Downtown Pub Lunchers care enough to have voted this topic in last month with a participating attendance of 40 pub grub munching agilists. Come on down and help us sort this one out. You probably have the answer. There’s beer, and we’ll be in the back. We’ve been hearing about it for years. GROW is the new new thing. DevOps builds on Agile and is the new new thing.

description Come hear about the latest in the IndieWeb world! See demos from the latest IndieWebCamp in Germany, learn about the progress on [Webmention](https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/) and [Micropub](https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/), and chat about all things IndieWeb! Bring a laptop and make some progress on your personal website too! This week's topic is personal identity management. The morning's announcement of Google's new Home product, like Amazon Echo, spurred some thoughts on how we could have better systems for managing access to personal identity data. "I want a central registry of my information, and a way to control who can access it." Amazon wants to know your home address? Grant permission from your storage location (app? website?), and it sends your address to Amazon.

Agenda: Speaker: Chris Roberts Topic: SparkleFormation and orchestration APIs Summary: SparkleFormation is a Ruby based DSL to programmatically build templates for cloud orchestration APIs. It even has a companion CLI tool for interacting with remote providers. This talk will give a brief history on how SparkleFormation came into existence, its evolution to becoming the library and application it is today, and an overview of the things possible with SparkleFormation. Once a common foundation has been laid, we'll dive in a bit deeper to examine some non-trivial use cases touching on nesting, graphing, planning, cross provider support/interactions (AWS CFN isn't the only rodeo in town), integrating Serverspec via callbacks, and how sparkle packs can delegate infrastructure composition across teams. If there's still time and interest after all this, we can touch on why CFN is currently the best orchestration API, why CFN sucks, what's great and horrible about other orchestration APIs, why you should have an "infrastructure repository", the absurdity of humans composing documents in serialization formats, and anything else people want to talk about. pdxdevops is a Portland, Oregon user group that explores the glorious intersection of software development and systems operations, and shares practical advice on working effectively in an era of agile infrastructure, server automation and cloud computing.

description nil EMA & ERA Talk Trade on May 24. Join Us. We are excited to present our first seminar of the year. Join us for a fun, informative evening featuring talks from three industry pros. Their combined topic is from an Idea to a Product: How to Start and Grow Your Business. Take Your Business to the Next Level This event is geared towards patent based businesses and start-ups, inventors, and people looking at new ventures in electronics manufacturing. The format is casual, with opportunities to network before and after. Hors d'oeuvres and a no-host bar are available, so grab a beer and stay awhile. Meet People & Grow Your Network We expect lots of faces from the electronics manufacturing industry, so be sure to bring your business cards. This is an excellent opportunity to meet new faces and reconnect with colleagues. Three Expert Speakers An Introduction to Intellectual Property Dr. Laura Zager, patent attorney (more info) "I've got a great idea for a business name, and just printed it on 3000 mugs!" "I think I need to get a patent so I'll be clear to make and sell my product." "Of course I own my company's logo—I paid a graphic designer to create it!" All of these statements represent misunderstandings of intellectual property law, which can trip up even the most conscientious of business owners. This talk will give a quick overview of the key areas of intellectual property law in the US, and will use case studies and examples to flag some of the most common pitfalls. Financial, Business and Estate Planning Strategies for Business Owners Diana Wojcik, patent valuation analyst (more info) Covering incorporation choices, valuations, tax strategy, and continuity/succession plans, Diana will illustrate different options available to business owners and explain the costs, risks, and benefits of each, to help business owners plan ahead to maximize their gains and minimize their risks. Her talk will mainly address the needs of businesses based on patent or other IP, manufacturing, tech advisory/consulting, and privately owned businesses. Getting it all Wrong: How I learned to Love the Lean Startup Leo Frishberg, UX strategist (more info) The Lean Startup takes an "action first" approach to exploring products, markets and business models. In theory this approach makes a lot of sense, but in practice it is fraught with challenges. In his talk, Frishberg leads the group through a couple of case studies in which the business got almost everything wrong, and was all the better because of it.

description nil Greetings Fellow Lovers of Data! If you hit only one DAMA PDX event this year, this is the one. We scored this month hooking Michele Goetz from Forrester research in Boston on the topic of Agile Development and Data Management. <h3>DETAILS</h3> Agile development for enterprise applications alone is of little use without accompanying data management support. This pressures data management and architecture to deliver data services on Agile application development timetables. They need to adopt Agile development practices themselves or risk greater data chaos through a system of data silos, inconsistent insights, and inconsistent views of the customer. This discussion will identify: <ul> <li>How agile development will cause a reset in the way data services are developed and rendered</li> <li>How to align agile development in DevOps with data architecture</li> <li>Where you can get started</li> <li>What good agile practices look like and deliver</li> </ul> For more information and to register, go to: http://www.damapdx.org/ <b>Schedule</b>: • 8:30 - 9:00 am - Sign In • 9:00 - 10:15 am - Presentation • 10:15 - 10:30 am - Break, Chapter Announcements • 10:30 - 11:30 am - Presentation continued Is your organization a corporate member of DAMA PDX?
