Anvil Media Lunch & Learn
Join Alicia Nagel from <a href="http://www.alicianagel.com/">Alicia Nagel Creative</a> for a seminar on branding and audiences on February 12.
You might think that your target audience is “everyone”, but marketing to everyone often leads to generic messaging that goes unnoticed. Instead, show a little personality! Embrace your core values and let your passion shine through. By defining your brand and identifying your target audience(s) you can connect with your customers. When you understand your customer, you can anticipate their decision-making process and ace their evaluation of your product or service. Customers who forge a bond with your brand spread the word about your company’s awesomeness and become brand evangelists. Seminar attendees will learn how to define their brand, define their target audience(s), anticipate their audience’s decision making process, and foster brand evangelists for their company. Presentation will be followed by a brief Q&A.
Read <a href="http://www.alicianagel.com/5-stages-getting-know-audience/">The 5 Stages of Getting To Know Your Audience</a> for a taste of some of the topics which will be covered.
The presentation will be an educational Lunch & Learn event from Noon to 1 p.m. at the Anvil office. Food and beverages will be provided. Register now to save your seat!
**Cost:** Free

Come hang out and write code in a quiet, less crowded environment with your fellow nerds.
The meetings are extremely informal, and everyone is welcome!

Learn Algorithms, Part I, on Coursera - Study Group - First Meeting
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
My name is John, and I'm hoping to form a study group to learn Algorithms, Part I, on Coursera: https://www.coursera.org/course/algs4partI
Coursera will be teaching a class on Algorithms, opening on January 31st. As anyone in the software engineering industry knows, learning algorithms is crucial to becoming a strong developer. Most major tech companies force applicants to go through rounds of algorithmic design questions in their interviews.
Email me at [email protected] or text/call at 501 655 2961. Location TBA, based on what's convenient for all of us.
DESCRIPTION FROM COURSERA:
About the Course
An introduction to fundamental data types, algorithms, and data structures, with emphasis on applications and scientific performance analysis of Java implementations. Specific topics covered include: union-find algorithms; basic iterable data types (stack, queues, and bags); sorting algorithms (quicksort, mergesort, heapsort) and applications; priority queues; binary search trees; red-black trees; hash tables; and symbol-table applications.
Recommended Background
All you need is a basic familiarity with programming in Java. This course is primarily aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates interested in engineering or science, along with high school students and professionals with an interest (and some background) in programming.

A lot has changed with the tools and methods for web-based and mobile development. Affordable cloud hosting and full stack development solutions exist in great numbers. But what is the real benefit? Can using these new tools help build better software, faster? Or is it just for toy apps? Join the TAO Developer Forum as developers build a responsive web-based application using some of the newest technologies available (AngularJS, RESTful services, Firebase, Xcode, JetBrains, AppCode, JetBrains WebStorm, Android Studio, Objective-C, Java, Cloud providers, JIRA, GitHub and so on).
The event will start with the audience selecting the application that will be built, and will lend with a Q&A session. If you're looking to learn about the latest technology trends in web and mobile development, this is the event to be at.

# Artists, Musicians, Performers, & Culture Makers YOU NEED The Secret Knowledge of Poster Design
Learn to make eye-catching posters using your computer and free layout software (scribus).
$25
Sunday February 23rd 2pm – 6pm (instruction starts at 3pm, see schedule below)
### About this workshop
Layout software is the key to making professional-looking posters and promotional graphics to promote your work (art/music/babysitting/etc). We’ll be using a great free program called Scribus to make basic layouts that look great.
Secret Knowledge offers workshops aimed at empowering creative people. Attendees will come away with skills they can really use. Instruction will follow an inquiry-based, hands-on approach to learning. That means we’ll provide instruction on the basics of how to make posters and graphics layouts, attendees will participate in a work session designing some real posters that they expect to use (we hope) to promote something, and additional instruction will address the specific creative goals of attendees which arise during the work session.
What to bring
Bring your Linux, Windows, or Macintosh laptop computer to the class. A limited number of loaner laptops can be made available, please ask in advance of the class if you will need one.
Instructions for installing Scribus will be provided to you ahead of the class and Secret Knowledge will host an installation party from 2pm – 3pm before the start of instruction for those who need assistance installing software.
### Schedule
2pm – 3pm Install Party
3pm – 4:30pm Software Instruction
4:30pm – 6pm Poster Designing (work session & inquiry-based instruction)
### Location
This Secret Knowledge workshop is generously hosted at OpenSourcery – technology for good.
OpenSourcery, 1636 Northwest Lovejoy Street, Portland, OR 97209
### Instructor
This workshop will be lead by Mr.Noah Kleiman of Secret Knowledge.

CHIFOO Meeting: Ducks, Dolls & Robots: a Genealogy of Socio-Technical Anxieties

Ducks, Dolls & Robots: a Genealogy of Socio-Technical Anxieties with Dr. Genevieve Bell, Intel
The introductions of new technologies are rarely seamless and silent affairs. There are the inevitable boosters and utopian dreamers who will tell us and sell us on the notion that this new technology will change our lives, in both big and small ways: we will be cleaner, safer, happier, more efficient, more productive, and of course, more modern with all that implies. The message here is everything will be different, better. There are also the equally inevitable naysayers and dystopian dreamers who worry along equally familiar but slightly different lines: we will be less social, less secure, more isolated, and more homogenous. The message here is everything will be different, but perhaps not so much better. Of course, running in between these larger conversations are the practicalities of living with new technologies—how much does it cost? where does it live? who should look after it? what will we will do with it? and, in the end, what will we do without it?
Perhaps it is no surprise then that we worry, that new technologies are frequently accompanied by anxiety, and sometimes even fear. In this talk, Genevieve traces the roots of these hopes, fears and anxieties back through our history with machines—Vaucason’s Duck, Edison’s Talking Doll, the tea-cup robots of the Edo-period in Japan, Frankenstein’s monster and Ned Ludd’s polemics are all part of this story. She takes an expansive view, crossing cultures and historical periods, to create a genealogy of our socio-technical anxieties. Ultimately, she suggests a framework for making sense of these anxieties, and in so doing, a new way of thinking about the next generation of technologies we are designing. |

Comics are a collaborative storytelling effort—many talented individuals contribute to the success or failure of each comic book, much as a good design team leverages complementary talents in delivering a stunning product. When their talents are combined, the writer (information architect) and artists (visual designers) attract attention and deliver the mood and flow (interaction design) to pull the reader along a highly stylized, deliberate path. Mike will take you on an illuminating journey of discovery, highlighting his favorite design techniques in comics that facilitate not just the mechanics of reading but the pure enjoyment of these colorful stories.
Along the way, you’ll be granted a tour of comic book storytelling techniques that can enrich your design communications such as story boarding, visual cues and iconography and unique ways to show your users the happy path without having to tell them. |

Portland Ruby Brigade monthly meeting
Roll back
| description |
PRE-MEETING DINNER at 6pm
We'll have pizza, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations.
PRESENTATIONS at 7pm
BEER & SNACKS at 9pm
After presentations we'll have more socializing time with beer & snacks.
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 28th 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 28th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!
<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.

Portland 3D Printing Lab

In January 50 Layer Geeks saw the landscape for 3D printing at the 2014 Consumer Electronics show, learned about 3D printing gearboxes (important to print parts for other 3D printers), and heard the sweet sound of a 3D printed violin.
In February, be prepared to learn more about how Portland businesses are making use of 3D printing technology for rapid prototyping as well as in finished goods. For this event we're going to try something new. If you're new to 3D printing, come half hour early and we'll give you an overview of the technology so that you can hit the ground running.
Agenda follows:
0600p : 3D printing for Beginners
0630p : Networking over light food/beverages
0700p : Intro
0710p : Community Q&A - Shout out a question, get it answered
0730p : Speaker 1 (To be Announced)
0750p : Speaker 2 (To be Announced)
0810p : More Networking!
Note 1: If you'd like to bring a printer, let Shashi know, so we can set aside table space.
Note 2: If you have a project or business you'd like to talk about, please contact the group organizer by private message. We're looking for 15-20 minute presentations. Slides aren't necessary, but we have access to a projector and plenty of table space. Good examples would be demonstrations of a new technique/tool, an overview of a service you provide, a unique project you've modeled/printed, etc. If you know a great speaker, please refer them!
Please share this with your network and bring your imagination and enthusiasm. We'd particularly like to get people from bigger corps that are using a lot of 3D printing in their design process (looking at you Nike and Intel :) |

Business meeting/introductions 6:30
Presentation: immediately following short business meeting
The Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) process framework is a people-first, learning-oriented hybrid agile approach to IT solution delivery. It has a risk-value lifecycle, is goal-driven, is scalable, and is enterprise aware. DAD unites the principles and practices of agile software development with the discipline required for software delivery for large-scale and distributed teams.
Given time and interest, the IBM Rational Team Concert tool; along with customized RTC process templates may be demonstrated. |
