Dynamics of Status, Rank, Power, Esteem: A practical workshop on effective collaboration and leadership
Roll back
| description |
Hello!! We're thrilled to announce a groundbreaking new training in status and leadership coming to Portland! Come for a 1-day intro to this work, or stay for both days and explore how the model translates to cooperative team work.
Everyone experiences the politics of power and status. But in our everyday lives, we’re often unaware of the underlying forces at play. In this workshop, facilitators Simo Routarinne and Barbara Tint introduce four key elements for understanding power dynamics in interpersonal and intergroup relations. These four elements operate simultaneously, persistently and often unconsciously in our daily interactions. Using experiential methods, participants will work together to learn about these processes, and will be coached on how to navigate them more effectively. This workshop is designed to provide participants with the opportunity to explore the application of these concepts to a wide range of social and organizational arenas.
Day 1: Interactive Dynamics of Power, Status, Rank and Esteem
Goals for Day 1 include:
• Develop more insight and choice about the gap between your intentions and their impact
• Identify the difference and connection between intentional and unintentional influence
• Recognize different forms of power and how they impact social and organizational dynamics - including visible and invisible forms of power
• Learn about your natural status patterns and your default comfort zones, and increase your range of choice and flexibility in these processes
• Build awareness, authenticity and empathy in communication; explore how you and others show up in social and organizational dynamics
• Maximize your own sense of personal agency and efficacy in making constructive change
• Understand these processes as they relate to social constructs such as gender, culture and class
This workshop introduces a new model for understanding power dynamics. The training will include theory, interactive role plays and group activities, experiential methods such as improvisational activities, experimentation with status choices, and exploration of power differentials. Debrief and reflection deepen the awareness and application of these concepts, and provide greater context for understanding one’s experiences in social and organizational settings.
Day 2: Navigating Interactive Power Dynamics in Fluid Organizational Hierarchies
Do you regularly collaborate with others? Are you a consultant or project lead? Do you work in an environment where the organizational boundaries are blurred? Navigating Power Dynamics will give you insights and strategies to be a more effective facilitator and leader, regardless of your organizational position. Using similar methods as in Day 1, experiential exercises will draw from scenarios related to participants’ own contexts. Debriefs will refocus on more practical and professional applications of the model. Going deeper into the work, Simo and Barbara will show you how to put the framework into action in your workplace for increased collaboration, creativity and productivity.
Goals for Day 2 include:
• Integrate and mobilize differing forms of individual and team power for more effective multidisciplinary, agile teams across organizational silos
• Learn how to cultivate organic and fluid leadership and greater collaboration in the absence of rank and role
• Understand how information flow in organizations is affected with status behavior and use of power
• Leverage interventions to increase productivity within flat or fluid organizational structures
• Improve individual and group performance in complex, volatile and chaotic environments
We look forward to working and learning and playing with you. Although status work is profound, our process is playful, entertaining and fun. We believe that learning happens best when participants are relaxed, present, and engaged. Be prepared for laughter and delight. |

Hackathon for Bike Fun Calendar
Roll back
| description |
Shakespeare said, to == be || to != be; but that is not the question we will address. Whether ’tis nobler for us to implement an outrageously cool feature or take arms against a sea of bugs, the question we will address is, “What happens when a whole bunch of techies go WILD on source code that helps people to have fun and bike?”
Of course, we are talking about the Shift Calendar. For those of you that don’t know, Portland is a leader among North American cities in that it has this website that crowdsources bike social rides and allows anybody to find them. The Shift Calendar is used to organize Pedalpalooza and many other fun bike events throughout the year, and other cities are using its source code to make their own! However, the source code for the Shift Calendar is somewhat stuck in 2008. The developer who created and has been maintaining it hasn’t had time to make significant improvements. Today, the site gets between 7,000 to 30,000 unique visitors per month. It plays an important role for the bike community, but has lost visitors over the years.
At this event, Techies on Bikes will come to the rescue and help bring the Shift Calendar into 2015!
Possibilities
'> hackathon(you, CSS skills);
.eyesore-from-looking-at-ShiftCal { amount: none; }
'> hackathon(you, HTML5);
people can now find fun rides using phone while at breweries, grandma’s house, community gardens growing organic cabbage, and other places with cell reception
'> hackathon(you, copywriting skills);
your clever words engage, inspire, and enlighten
'> hackathon(you, php, javascript);
notifications of new rides and activities
'> hackathon(you, Facebook API);
can invite friends to rides and spy on them
Although we are still working out the details, we will have a bike ride, food, and opportunities to socialize. Stay tuned for more information!

Where is the source code for Shift Calendar?
https://github.com/ShiftGithub/shiftcal/
Why doesn’t Shift Calendar just use Calagator?
Calagator is written in Ruby. Shift relies on volunteer webmasters that do not know Ruby and won’t be able to maintain the site if it’s changed over to Ruby.
Who is going to review pull requests on the source code?

Of course, we are talking about the Shift Calendar. For those of you that don’t know, Portland is a leader among North American cities in that it has this website that crowdsources bike social rides and allows anybody to find them. The Shift Calendar is used to organize Pedalpalooza and many other fun bike events throughout the year, and other cities are using its source code to make their own! However, the source code for the Shift Calendar is somewhat stuck in 2008. The developer who created and has been maintaining it hasn’t had time to make significant improvements. Today, the site gets between 7,000 to 30,000 unique visitors per month. It plays an important role for the bike community, but has lost visitors over the years.
At this event, Techies on Bikes will come to the rescue and help bring the Shift Calendar into 2015!
Possibilities:
> hackathon(you, CSS skills);
.eyesore-from-looking-at-ShiftCal { amount: none; }
> hackathon(you, HTML5);
people can now find fun rides using phone while at breweries, grandma’s house, community gardens growing organic cabbage, and other places with cell reception
> hackathon(you, copywriting skills);
your clever words engage, inspire, and enlighten
> hackathon(you, php, javascript);
notifications of new rides and activities
> hackathon(you, Facebook API);
can invite friends to rides and spy on them
Although we are still working out the details, we will have a bike ride, food, and opportunities to socialize. Stay tuned for more information!

FAQ
Where can I see the Shift Calendar?
http://www.shift2bikes.org/cal/
Where is the source code for Shift Calendar?
https://github.com/ShiftGithub/shiftcal/
Why doesn’t Shift Calendar just use Calagator?
Calagator is written in Ruby. Shift relies on volunteer webmasters that do not know Ruby and won’t be able to maintain the site if it’s changed over to Ruby.

We are discussing business formation this week. The type of business organization you pick affects how investors see you, how your profits are taxed, and how much liability is passed through to the founders. I'll spend a few minutes giving the legal perspective of the different types of business entities as well as some tax planning considerations. I've personally run each type of business entity over the years for my ventures. I'll give my personal opinions on how they work in reality. I look forward to hearing your thoughts, too. |

jessehs
Join us for the July edition of Brewpal! On the fourth Tuesday of each month, we get together to work on projects, ask questions of our fellow Drupalers and have a pint.
As you may know, this year we've been rotating the venue of the Brewpal meetup. The criteria includes free wi-fi, a large public space that's family friendly, bar service (rather than table service), all while being close-in and easy to get to by public transit. This month (August 25th), Brewpal will take place at Teote Areperia (1615 SE 12th) the SE Lucky Lab (915 SE Hawthorne). |

We're back! It's been too long, but we're excited to get together again and share what we've been learning from our personal data.
#### Here's our agenda:
##### Informal Social and Gadget Time - Starting at 6pm
Come early to socialize with other QSers and share what hardware, apps, and other technologies are helping you track your life. Bring your gadgets so that we can all see them, play with them, and hear your experiences with them!
##### New and Notable from the 2015 Quantified Self Conference - 6:30 sharp!
Steven Jonas of QS Labs will give a short intro on what Quantified Self is for people who are new. He will also share stories and highlight some fantastic talks from the recent Quantified Self conference in San Francisco.
##### Show and Tell
We want to know: What are you working on? What are you tracking? What are you learning? It doesn't have to be a formal presentation, and can be as much as 10 minutes or as short as you like. Please let us know beforehand if you would like to share something. Shoot an email to [email protected]. |

Unicorns Are Made, Not Born: The Truths of Designer/Developers — RefreshPDX
Roll back

<h2>Doors at 6pm, Talk at 6:30pm</h2>
Please visit the site to RSVP.
<h3>Our Topic</h3>
Over the years, the internet has had many a debate over unicorns, aka designers that code. In what capacity do they exist? Should more people try to become unicorns? What does it take to be a designer/developer?
Despite what the descriptor might imply, being a unicorn isn’t magic – it’s work. Whether you’re starting a career in design, already designing and coding all the time, or hiring, you’ll have to make decisions about what to prioritize. So rather than perpetuating unicorn myths, let’s talk about what it’s like to jump between two disciplines and what makes one designer better than another.
<h3>Our speaker, Elea Chang</h3>
Elea Chang is a Bay-Area-native-turned-Portlander who designs for the web and thinks about usability. Previously, she worked for Upworthy, Idealist, and OkCupid Labs. Recently, Elea has written pieces for Model View Culture and The Pastry Box, and is putting together Affect, a conference on the intersection of design and social good. |

Portlanders in web and mobile tech are creating cool new apps, services and companies. But we aren't sharing them nearly enough. Demolicious shines a well-deserved spotlight on some of the best work.

Women Navigate IT: Empathy in Tech
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Why does tech shy away from empathy with customers (or employees for that matter)? Lately the new thing has been to "bring empathy to the customer process" - which isn't really a new thing at all. In fact, development decisions as well as business decisions can rely on empathy as a compass.
This short workshop will take you through the process of creating a customer journey & empathy map that will help you question the status quo, build great tech, and grow in your career.
The workshop will be lead by Kristen Gallagher, the founder of education design firm Edify. We will also have an interactive section. You will leave with tools to navigate your career more successfully. |

Snowdrift.coop is a volunteer-built non-profit community project focused on a new sustainable matching system to coordinate the global community in better funding shareable freely-licensed works.
This event is the first of what we hope will be ongoing series of local Portland meetups. The community includes people on many continents across the globe, but we have a strong Portland foundation with one of the co-founders, the lead developer, and several active volunteers and supporters in the area.
The Snowdrift.coop platform uses the Yesod web framework written in Haskell. Other technologies and relevant work includes basic HTML/CSS/JavaScript and general design, organizing, and other non-technical tasks.
At this hacking session, we'll help new volunteers get started with the code along with casual discussion, planning, and organizing work appropriate to whoever shows up. Complete newcomers are welcome, no particular experience or skills needed to get involved.
We're hoping the venue works out well, but will likely try other locations in the future (offices, libraries, other coffee shops / bars etc as appropriate). We picked this as a low-key somewhat central place. We will start around 10AM and intend to spend a good portion of the day there, especially in case some people can only come later in the afternoon. |

Reading through technical books in a group is a great way to learn. You can stay motivated by reading together; better apply what you are reading by actively communicating it, as well as hearing others perspectives that will help you better understand the book. Even if you're a more experienced developer it's a great way to keep your skill sharp and share your wisdom and experience. If none of that is convincing just come and have fun with fellow ruby developers!
We are starting a new book [Metaprogramming Ruby 2: Program Like the Ruby Pros](https://pragprog.com/book/ppmetr2/metaprogramming-ruby-2) by Paolo Perrotta. This week we will discuss Chapter 9-10.
Please come having read the chapters and ready to discuss it.
Pizza will be provided! |

Science on Tap - Oysters, Invaders, Sex, and CO2
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Science on Tap is a science lecture series where you can sit back, enjoy a pint, and laugh while you learn. Listen to experts talk about the science in your neighborhood and around the world. You don’t have to be a science geek to have fun—all you need is a thirst for knowledge!
Cost: $8 online advance tickets, $10* suggested cover at the door. This is an all-ages event.
Food & Drink: Beer, wine, pizza slices, popcorn and snacks available.
Event Description:
In addition to being tasty, oysters are a critical member of the ecosystem and the economic reality of the Pacific Northwest. And they’re in trouble. Invasive species and changing ocean conditions have killed thousands of oysters and cost the industry millions of dollars a year, but the recent publication of the Pacific Oyster genome has led to new ideas to try to overcome these losses. At this Science on Tap, Dr. Steve Sylvester, a molecular biologist at WSU Vancouver, will give a brief history of oystering in the Northwest and tell us his ongoing research aimed at helping the oyster industry to overcome biological and chemical problems that limit production.
_________
Science on Tap at the Kiggins is produced in partnership with Washington State University Vancouver.
_________
*A note on the suggested cover at the door: Science on Tap is supported, in part, by money collected at the door. We are committed to offering educational opportunities to adults who want to learn, so if $10 is a hardship for you, please come anyway and donate what you can.

Portland Postgres Users Group
In this presentation we will grapple with the un-joinable itself, and see if we may not join it after all. The presentation explores the record linking problem (entity resolution) in the context of PostgreSQL. This problem generally arises when you have multiple data sources (or duplicates) without a reliable key to resolve multiple records to the same entity. First the problem is explored, then a general approach to developing a solution is presented, and finally there will be some pro tips. |

Description: If you missed Ignite or WPC and haven’t been following the Office blog, there’s a lot to catch up on from these past couple months. In this session I take the best of Bill Baer, Seth Patton, Julia White, and the whole Office & SharePoint gang and give you a cliff notes version of what you need to know about SharePoint 2016 including the latest and greatest coming from the Office 365 roadmap. Already seen all of that? Wow you’re on top of things… But I’ll give you my take, but have you seen the new Outlook, OneNote, PowerPoint Office Apple Watch apps? Join me and I’ll show you. This presentation will be presented from a Windows 10 with the preview of Office 2016 so you can see the new responsive Office app. So much to learn with so little time! Be ready for the upcoming SharePoint 2016 beta! [Note everything presented is pre-approved non-NDA material] |

### Discoveries in microbenchmarking with JMH
Microbenchmarking is fraught with peril. Method inlining. Dead code elimination. Constant folding. False sharing. Loop unrolling. Bimorphic and megamorhpic call sites. This talk explores these fantastic mysteries using JMH, the excellent microbenchmark harness from Oracle developed under the OpenJDK project.
### Speaker
Trask Stalnaker is a 16-year Java programmer, author of Glowroot, Portland native and alumnus of Stanford University (BS Mathematics).
