Technology & the Balance between Freedom of Expression & Privacy
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
_Join us for an exciting talk & discussion with ALCU Board Member, Stuart Kaplan!_
**How technology changes the relationship between freedom of expression and privacy**
Technology complicates the relationship between free speech and personal privacy. At two extremes of privacy, anonymous online posts permit defamation without consequences to the writer, while ubiquitous video surveillance of public spaces limits freedom of assembly and movement.
This presentation will examine several recent attempts to find a fair and workable balance between privacy protection and free speech goals by the courts and legislatures. Particular attention will be given to the work of the American Civil Liberties Union to craft policies that address the many challenges to privacy and speech rights presented by a variety of technologies.
**Speaker Bio**
Stuart Kaplan is Professor Emeritus of Communication, Lewis & Clark College. He has served on the American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon Board of Directors since 1992 and has held the positions of Board President and Oregon representative to the National ACLU Board.
**What's TA3M?**
This is the Techno-Activism 3rd Monday event for Portland, Oregon! Read more about techno-activism 3rd mondays.
**Who should come?**
Anyone interested in techno-activism. We invite coders, geeks, artists, and anyone else. No technical experience required.
**Who's hosting?**
The Privly Foundation organizes this and future TA3M events.
**Code of Conduct**

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 [Confident Ruby](http://www.confidentruby.com/) by Avdi Grimm. This week we will discuss 4.20 Use symbols as placeholder objects and 4.21bundler arguments into parameter objects
Please come having read the chapters and ready to discuss it.
Make sure to grab food before. |

The Rye Beer Fest, a celebration of the revival of rye beers, will be held at EastBurn (1800 E. Burnside St., Portland, Oregon) during Portland Beer Week. The fest will take place on Friday June 12th, from 4 p.m. until 2 a.m. and will feature over 20 rye beers. Profits from this year’s fest will support Dawn to Dusk Paddle Fund for the Children’s Cancer Association.
Each year the festival organizer, Kerry Finsand, likes to assist with brewing one of the beers for the fest. This year Kerry had the privilege of brewing with Lompoc Brewing’s Spencer Gotter. The collaboration beer is called Lemon Rye-zome. They used Soracha Ace hops and Lemongrass in this summer inspired brew.
Speaking of beer, see our entire tap list with descriptions here: www.tapd.it/1dSN8rd
This year’s admission fee of $10 dollars includes a commemorative rye beer fest pint glass and eight beer tickets. Additional tickets will be available for purchase for $1 each. One ticket entitles you to a 4-ounce sample, while 4 tickets will get you a full pint.
In addition to rye beers, there will be rye cocktails, rye themed food and live music will start at 8pm from Weekend Assembly, a five piece, cross-genre, cross-generational musical project. Weekend Assembly blends roots rock with blues, country, folk and indie music. Kids are welcome upstairs until 9pm and there will not be an entry fee for non-beer drinkers.

10 Billion a Day, 100 Milliseconds Per - Joint meetup with Erlang & Elixir Meetup Group
Roll back
| description |
This is a Joint meetup with the Portland Erlang and Elixir User Group.
Brian Troutwine of Adroll will be joining us tonight. Adroll uses Erlang to power their high-speed, never-stop online advertising services. That's right, 10 billion transactions a day.
Brian's talk will provide motivation for the extensive instrumentation of complex computer systems and make the argument that such systems are essential. This talk will provide practical starting points in Erlang projects and maintain a perspective on the human organization around the computer system. Brian will focus on getting started with instrumentation in a systematic way and follow up with the challenge of interpreting and acting on metrics emitted from a production system in a way which does not overwhelm operators’ ability to effectively control or prioritize faults in the system. He’ll use historical examples and case studies from my work to keep the talk anchored in the practical.
Talk objectives:
Brian hopes to convince the audience of two things:
* that monitoring and instrumentation is an essential component of any long-lived system and
* that it's not so hard to get started, after all.
He’ll keep a clear-eyed view of what works and is difficult in practice so that the audience can make a reasoned decision after the talk. |

# Come join us for Pythonic talks!
All levels are welcome! Talk levels vary from beginner to advanced.
This month we'll be trying a new format!
We'll start with a presentation by Erin Call on why mentorship is so important to our community as a whole, and her own experiences mentoring up and coming developers with an open source project she developed. After the presentation ends we’ll ask to audience what projects they’re working on, and what they need help with. Then we’ll break into groups. You can work individually, with others, ask for help, offer to help, or just chat with other pythonistas.
Join us afterward at Rogue on NW 14th & Flanders to continue the discussion over a beverage.
RSVP at [Meetup](http://www.meetup.com/pdxpython/events/222074670/)
Join us on our [python.org](http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/portland) mailing list and in **#pdxpython** on Freenode. All are welcome! |

Who: John Hawley<br>
What: Open Hardware and why it matters - MinnowBoard MAX case study<br>
Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level)<br>
When: Thursday, June 4th, 2015 at 7pm<br>
Why: The pursuit of technology freedom<br>
Stream: http://pdxlinux.org/live
Open Hardware is starting to change the way the world works, giving more people access to customizable hardware, and giving more power to smaller entities. I intend to give a general overview of open hardware, focusing on the MinnowBoard MAX, and use it as a case study of what people are doing with it and why the open hardware is important to the space it's entering.
John 'Warthog9' Hawley led the system administration team on kernel.org for nearly a decade, leading a team including four other administrators. His other exploits include working on Syslinux, OpenSSI, a caching Gitweb, and patches to bind to enable GeoDNS. He's the author of PXE Knife, a set of interfaces around common utilities and diagnostics tools needed by an average systems administrator, as well as SyncDiff(erent) a state-full file synchronizer and file transfer mechanism. He currently works for Intel working on Open Hardware, and the Minnowboard. In his free time he enjoys cooking extravagant meals and watching bad movies.
Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting.

Stress-Free Technology Project Management for Nonprofits
Roll back

Nonprofit technology projects come in all types and sizes, and managing them is rarely anyones primary job. Success is often found not in simply getting “the thing” done, but in managing the process along the way.
It’s easy to understand how nonprofit staff get sidled with project management in the course of their work: you manage the website for your organization, so it just makes sense that you are responsible for the upcoming website redesign project, right? Likewise for the CRM migration, email platform transition, and on, and on.
Nervous about helming such a transition? That’s where this Lab comes in.
Managing a technology-related project for your nonprofit can seem like a daunting task, whether you have experience in project management or not. Each project and organization presents its own unique set of challenges. Even if you feel like you have a good system in place, having a chance to connect with other’s approaches and perspectives can be an eye-opening experience.
During this Lab, we will spend the day working through strategies, frameworks, and best practices to help guide you through the range of technology-related projects that you encounter and how to better manage them for success. Be prepared for exercises that will get you thinking about a particular project your organization is currently working on or getting ready to begin. Also come ready to share your experiences, tips, and lessons learned with the rest of the group as we work to learn as a community.
You’re going to get a chance to learn from experts, connect with peers, find greater success in your nonprofit technology projects, and have some fun along the way.
At the NTEN Lab, you will learn how to:
* Oversee project budgets
* Develop project plans
* Reign in scope creep
* Manage internal communications & expectations
* Handle vendor relationships
* Monitor & evaluate the “success” of your project |
