The Cheron Mayhall Lecture Series presents Gabriella Coleman
"How Anonymous (Narrowly) Evaded the Cyberterrorism Rhetorical Machine"
Anonymous—the masked activists who have contributed to hundreds of political operations around the world since 2008—were perfectly positioned to earn the title of cyberterrorists. In this talk Gabriella Coleman considers the various factors that allowed them to narrowly escape this designation.
Thursday, March 3
7 p.m.
Marsh Hall 216
Gabriella Coleman is a cultural anthropologist who holds the Wolfe Chair in Scientific and Technological Literacy at McGill University in Canada. She researches, writes, and teaches on computer hackers and digital activism. She is the author of Coding Freedom: The Ethics and Aesthetics of Hacking as well as Hacker, Hoaxer, Whistleblower, Spy: The Many Faces of Anonymous, winner of the 2015 Diana Forsythe Prize by The American Anthropological Association's Committee on the Anthropology of Science, Technology and Computing. More information at http://gabriellacoleman.org
The Cheron Mayhall Lecture series features thought-provoking speakers who are invited to present iconoclastic yet feasible ideas on hot-button contemporary topics. Each speaker is encouraged to lay out detailed, evidence-driven arguments that will push the audience to think critically about 'received ideas' and what we collectively consider common sense. The lecture is followed by a robust question-and-answer session where students, staff, faculty, and community members can challenge the ideas presented in order to push the conversation to the next level. Formerly called the "In Your Face Lecture Series," previous speakers include: Will Potter, Theresa Williamson, Christian Parenti, Heather Rogers, and many more.
Co-sponsors: The School of Social Sciences, The McCall Center for Policy Innovation, the Department of Politics and Government, The Anthropology/Sociology Club

AgilePDX Dntn Pub Lunch: Agile Compatible Metrics
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
It can be a struggle to find useful metrics for evaluating the efficiency of agile teams.
Traditional metrics can give an incomplete or misleading view of how well a team is actually delivering.
Story points can also be misleading, as it's easy to inflate story sizes to game the metric.
So what's a worthwhile metric to use for judging how well a team is doing, and most importantly,
how well the team is improving? What have you found that works well?
Come join us discuss what's valuable and what to avoid.
Usual time, usual place. We'll be in the back at Ringlers from 12p to 1p. We start on
time and end on time. RSVP's to [email protected] are welcome but not required. |

Learn about Advanced Data Visualization - Data Management PDX March Chapter Meeting
Roll back
| description |
After a review of our previous meeting about the basics of Data Visualization (Dec. 2012) we will explore some of the more complex issues of expressing complex business behavior in graphic form. You do not need to have attended the basics presentation to get value from this advanced presentation.
Included in this session are the five basic chart types, along with topics of normalization and the importance of context. We will then look at more advanced concepts for the expression of metrics (such as cartograms, step functions, metrics which go negative, non-linear scales, and lineage charts). We will discuss the importance of understanding volatility in a metric, and the expression of uncertainty and ambiguity.
Rankings can be misleading; we will show how. Tree maps are useful, but heat maps can be dangerous. We may look at using scatter diagrams to evaluate the correlation of market indexes. If we have time, we will look at the expression of non-metric ideas, including VENN diagrams.

New Ventures West is a San Francisco based coach training school that has been developing the methodology of Integral Coaching for 30 years. Our clients include Google, Facebook, Intel, Genentech, Apple, and Cisco.
Coaching to Excellence is a two day workshop for people who are interested in exploring coaching as a career, and for those who are simply interested in being more skillful in relationships at work and in the rest of life. Whether or not your end goal is to be a coach, the competencies of coaching - which include active listening, asking powerful questions, and cultivating an aware presence - can be applied to whatever your work is in the world, whether that is being a parent, a leader, a teammate, a spouse, a citizen, a manager, etc. Integral Coaching is a developmental methodology that invites clients to orient to their situation in a new way, so that new opportunities and possibilities are seen, and more powerful interpretations can be made.
Integral Coaching teaches us how to hold space that is more powerful, for ourselves and others, so that we can ask the following questions:
-How can I help build resilience in myself, my staff, and the people we serve?
-How can I help people face tough questions about the future with curiosity and courage?
-What are the talents and qualities that are uniquely mine in responding to global challenges?
-What can I do to have more powerful conversations with people to open possibility?
-How am I to respond when I feel uncertain, unsure, and full of grief, and yet people are relying on me?
-Is it possible to live in a way that generates aliveness when the obstacles facing me seem insurmountable?
During these two days you will both coach and be coached, and learn exciting techniques and tools that you can immediately apply to your work in the world.
This class also functions as the prerequisite to our year-long Professional Coaching Course.
Please be in touch with your questions and reflections.

2016? Agile? Like to prognosticate, expound or listen intently? We're there for you.
(Did you miss the last one due to some unfortunately hyper-confusing instructions? Ahem. That organizer has been taken out to the back shed for re-education. Let's do this right.)
We'll meet at 5pm, spend a few minutes gathering ideas and drinks, then roll right into the smooth easy cadence of lively discussion.
Details on how Lean Coffee works are on the meetup site.

pdxrlang meetup: NLP meets Politics-Experiments w/ Word-Vectors and 2016 Campaign Debate Rhetoric

Speaker: Winston Saunders
Abstract: Word vectors, derived by deep learning algorithms applied to billions of words of text, provide powerful semantic models of language. Code in R, demonstrating [queen] + [man] - [woman] ~ [King] to about 90% accuracy will be reviewed. Building first on exploratory "bag of words" analysis of Presidential debate texts, we'll explore, using pre-computed GloVe vectors (Pennington et al http://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/glove/), relationships like [sanders] + [trump] - [clinton] ~ [cruz] and how candidate positions align to rhetorical sentiment like [government] + [people] - [tax]. This analysis is work in progress. We'll also test empirical limits (aka failed experiments). Active feedback is both sought and welcome.
Details:

ClojureScript has the best client side work flow available. Beating out JS (even with modern tooling), and other compile to JS languages. With ClojureScript and figwheel we have hot code reloading, stable application state across reloads, & an interactive browser connected REPL. You can develop your client side app as if you where *inside* the browser. In this short presentation we will go over what figwheel does, how to set it up, and demo what it is like to build an SPA in ClojureScript + Om.
Jordan Schatz is a polyglot software engineer, working in Clojure, ClojureScript, Python, Javascript, Racket, PHP among other languages to build and scale systems for the last 10 years. He has a particular love of functional programming, dev ops & NoSQL/new data stores. Outside of computer science he pursues interests in alternative energy systems, alternative architecture and the life sciences.

West Side PubTalk(TM): Fund your Startup
Roll back
| description |
nil |

At this West Side PubTalk(TM) we’ll discuss how do you fund a startup when the resources of the founders and friends and family run out? There are angel investors and venture capital firms, but they aren’t the only sources of funding for startups, and they are often not the right fit.
Fortunately, there are other options. Some of those options are:
Seed funds in Oregon invest anywhere from $10,000 to $250,000 in startups.
Banks will make loans to small businesses – but the business does have to meet some key requirements.
The federal SBIR program can provide $1 million in grant funding or more
At this West Side PubTalk, you’ll learn more about all three of these sources from a panel that has experience in each of these three types of funding. |

We will supply wifi, and a place to share ideas and collaborate with a community of fellow creators and makers. We'll share tips and tricks, and support your creative endeavors! The goal for the meetup is to support the local creative scene while providing an opportunity for people to build a network with people of varied skills. Makers, crafters, and creators of all ages, skill levels, and backgrounds are encouraged to bring your projects, supplies, and ideas.
From sewing to electronics to art projects, this will be an incubator for interesting collaborations. For example, if someone comes in to work on an embroidery project, another could show them how to incorporate conductive thread and LEDs to make that project light up. Tips and tricks that can be shared varied depending on who comes to the event. Things shared at previous events include working with Arduino, programming, sculpting, knitting, hand sewing, misc hobbyist electronics tips from component suppliers to soldering tricks.
All attendees will need to sign-in with Cat before entering the meetup space. All information will be kept confidential.

Join us for the Feburary meeting of PdxDevOps.
Agenda:
1) Overview of Nix and NixOS by Corbin Simpson (Acquia) (second try)
[Nix](http://nixos.org/nix/) is a package manager designed to perfectly isolate dependencies and yield reproducible builds. The [NixOS Linux distro](http://nixos.org/) is built on top of Nix. We'll look at how Nix relates to the modern devops environment and how it can simplify continuous integration and configuration management.
2) "Creating Efficient Dockerfiles" by Isaac Stefanek
Docker can do many great things for the continuous integration and delivery process. One of the benefits that can be achieved using Docker is speeding up build and deploy times. Creating Docker files that maximize this benefit can take some work, especially if you are dealing with a bloated technology stack. We'll take a look at some common best practices that will have your Docker builds running at warp speed. The examples will be focused on building NodeJS applications, but many of the concepts will be universal for any Dockerized app.
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. The group welcomes participants interested in any related products, technologies and methodologies. The group has been meeting regularly since August 2010 for presentations, demos and discussions applicable to all skill levels, from newbies and experts. Every month 15-35 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for devops – join us! |

Docker can do many great things for the continuous integration and delivery process. One of the benefits that can be achieved using Docker is speeding up build and deploy times. Creating Docker files that maximize this benefit can take some work, especially if you are dealing with a bloated technology stack. We'll take a look at some common best practices that will have your Docker builds running at warp speed. The examples will be focused on building NodeJS applications, but many of the concepts will be universal for any Dockerized app.

Code Fellows invites online learners of all stripes to Code Oregon Labs!
Last month we focused on coding for responsive websites, now let’s make ‘em dance! Gaston Figueroa of Uncorked Studios will kick off this month's session with a demo on coding for animation.
The 30 min. talk/demo will focus on HTML, CSS, & JavaScript. Tutors are knowledgeable in these and other stacks.
After the animation demo, it'll be open lab as usual! Together with Code Oregon and generous volunteers from the #pdxtech community, Code Fellows is happy to host this event. Each month, our goal is a 6:1 tutor-to-learner ratio, and we provide free pizza and beverages. |
