We'll have pizza & beer starting at 6pm, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations.
# PRESENTATIONS at 7pm

After presentations we'll have more socializing time.
# Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!

ARRIVING BY BIKE? Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 29th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 29th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
<em>ABOUT THE GROUP: The Portland Ruby Brigade, also known as pdxruby and pdx.rb, is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon area. The group welcomes all programmers interested in the language and its implementations, tools, libraries and frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails.

Write The Docs PDX: RESTful API Documentation
Roll back
| description |

→ |
If you work with the World Wide Web, you’ve encountered a RESTful API. If you’ve retweeted a message, you’ve used a RESTful API. If you’ve searched for data on ESPN, you’ve made a RESTful API call.
But what of developers who need to automate this process, to make calls to potentially thousands of RESTful API endpoints?
They need documentation. Sure, they can read the code of the people who developed the RESTful APIs, but what they really need are examples. As one of the speakers at the Write The Docs ’14 conference noted, “Developers are people too.”
Jody Bleyle and Jennifer Rondeau will give us some insight into RESTful APIs, what they are, how you can interact with them, and what they have done to document their RESTful APIs.
They will also show us some options for automating RESTful API documentation.
Jennifer and Jody will give us some clues. :) |

Galois tech talk: Functional programming in Swift

Galois is pleased to host the following tech talk. These talks are open to the interested public–please join us! (There is no need to pre-register for the talk.)
abstract:
At this year’s WWDC, Apple announced Swift, a new programming language for iOS and OS X development. In this talk, I’d like to give a brief overview of the language, focussing on its ‘functional features’. I’ll try to demonstrate that there are exciting new possibilities for applying functional programming technology to a new platform — like writing an app that computes Fibonacci numbers without using a for-loop.
bio:
Wouter Swierstra is a lecturer at the University of Utrecht. He has recently written a book, Functional Programming in Swift, together with Chris Eidhof and Florian Kugler. |

OCTOBER 20th EVENT
Hi All -
Excited about our October event? I am! Happy to announce that our October event will offer a workshop on visual storytelling by the awesome AJ Coots. Can't wait to see you all!
Show to Tell: Using the Tools of Visual Storytelling to Communicate your Message
Emmy-winning television shows, blockbuster movies and Fortune 500 brands all use the powerful language of visual storytelling to convince buyers, sway emotions, convince and communicate meaning at an intuitive level. In this fun and fast-paced, highly visual and interactive workshop-style presentation, you will learn how to harness the power of visual language to communicate with potential clients on a visceral or 'gut' level, identify the top professional characteristics that differentiate you from others in your field, and learn to communicate visually to support your personal and professional brand.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Speaker:
AJ Coots learned her craft at the legendary Kevin Clark Studios in Vancouver, BC (aka "Hollywood North") helping actors communicate character and get hired using professional headshots. However, AJ now uses her powers for 'mortals, not models' and specializes in helping clients who self-identify as 'not photogenic' and who have never met a camera that wasn't out to get them. In 2006 she established her Portland, Oregon headshot photography studio in the heart of the Pearl District, NW 9th / Everett situated steps from the Portland Streetcar (and dangerously close to Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream) where she specializes in creating storytelling headshots for thought-leaders, authors, national speakers, entrepreneurs, and professionals in all walks of life. AJC Photography (www.ajc-photography.com)
VENUE:

This month we get to have David Christiansen, the main developer of Idris after Edwin himself, reprise his presentation from this year's Symposium on Implementation and Application of Functional Languages: "Type-Directed Elaboration of Quasiquotations: A High-Level Syntax for Low-Level Reflection."
This enables using the user-visible surface syntax of the language for working with compile-time metaprogramming on reflected terms.

Portland 3D Printing Lab : FDM troubleshooting methods
Roll back

This is the first in a series of meetups focusing on troubleshooting methods for plastic filament extrusion printers like the MakerBot, PrintrBot, MendelMax, and others. We'll look at methods to fix problems with these printers, so bring any issues you need help with. We'll also talk about how to make printers more reliable and what to look for when starting a new project or buying a new printer.
Isaac Porras will kick off the first meeting with his experiences!
Technical terms:
FDM = Fused Deposition Modeling, the term for melting thermoplastic filament and extruding into various shapes. Copyrighted by Stratasys.
FFF = Fused Filament Fabrication, the "open" term for the same process. |

Two topics this month: PgOpen attendees will discuss highlights of that conference, and Andrew will talk about some New Relic-y stuff.
Our meeting will be held at Iovation, on the 32nd floor of the US Bancorp Tower at 111 SW 5th (5th & Oak). It’s right on the Green & Yellow Max lines. Underground bike parking is available in the parking garage; outdoors all around the block in the usual spots. No bikes in the office, sorry!
Elevators open at 5:45 and building security closes access to the floor at 6:30. |

<b>Description</b></p> <p><br>Operational systems manage our finances, shopping, devices and much more. Adding real-time analytics to these systems enables them to instantly respond to changing conditions and provide immediate, targeted feedback. This use of analytics is called “operational intelligence,” and the need for it is widespread.</p> <p>This talk will describe the use of in-memory, data-parallel computing to obtain operational intelligence in several scenarios, including financial services, ecommerce, and cable-based media. It will show both how an in-memory model is constructed and how data-parallel analysis can be implemented to provide immediate feedback. Performance results from a simulation of 10M live cable-TV set-top boxes will illustrate how this technique was used to correlate and enrich 25K events per second and complete a parallel analysis every 10 seconds on a cluster of commodity servers.</p> <p>The talk also will compare the use of in-memory computing to the more traditional “big data” model popularized by Hadoop MapReduce. It also will examine simplifications offered by this approach over directly analyzing incoming event streams from an operational system using complex event processing or Storm. Lastly, it will explain key requirements of the in-memory computing platform, in particular real-time updating of individual objects and high availability, and compare these requirements to the design goals for stream processing in Spark.</p> <p>

The doors open to the event at 6:00pm and we will start the talk at 6:30pm sharp!
Our Topic
Windows 8. Chromebook Pixel. Ubuntu Phone. These devices shatter another consensual hallucination that we web developers have bought into: mobile = touch and desktop = keyboard and mouse.
We have tablets with keyboards; laptops that become tablets; laptops with touch screens; phones with physical keyboards; and even phones that become desktop computers. Not to mention new forms of input like cameras, voice control and sensors.
One of the core things that responsive design has taught us is that we have to be comfortable with the ambiguity of not knowing what the size of our canvas is going to be. Input has that same ambiguity. It is transient. It is unknowable. Reconciling that understanding from a design and implementation perspective is going to be as big a challenge if not bigger than the one we faced coming to grips with responsive design.
We've learned how to respond to screen size. Our next challenge is learning how to adapt to different forms of input.
Our Presenter, Jason Grigsby
In 2000, Jason got his first mobile phone. He became obsessed with how the world could be a better place if everyone had access to the world's information in their pockets. But WAP was crap so he headed back to the desktop web for several years. Now Jason spends far too much time thinking about mobile. Jason is a mobile strategist, co-founder of Cloudfour and frequently speaks about mobile technology and strategy.
Follow Jason on Twitter.
Join us after the workshop for a short walk to a local establishment for libation, sponsored by nGen Works!
Our Venue, currently TBD
We're checking out some new digs and will update everyone when we make a decision.

Data Science Workshops
Roll back
| description |
This is the start of a new data science meetup. The goal is to help teach each other data science magic on a monthly basis in the form of workshops where participants build the presented material along with the presenter. This first session will be on decision trees. We'll cover the theory behind decision trees and use the IPython notebook and the sklearn library for a small case study.
Come, network, learn something new, teach someone else something new, and let's start this thing off right. |
