<b>Designing for Connections</b>
Dwayne King, Pinpoint
Humans have a deep-seated evolutionary drive to congregate and organize themselves into communities. Modern-day communities provide protection, commerce and connection. Social resources like trust and shared identity make it easier for people to work and play together, creating a more productive and prosperous society. Productivity and prosperity are normally measured in objects and people, but these resources also reside in social relations among people. This extends the idea of capital beyond physical, financial and human to include social capital. Social capital provides a framework to make deliberate investments to develop resources that inhere in social relations. Research shows that increased social capital improves health, safety, education, government and the economy.
In this presentation, Dwayne King will give an overview of the Connection Experience Design (CxD) process, explaining how it draws from techniques successfully used in other disciplines. He’ll explore what he considers its core principles: co-design, systems thinking, prototyping, and habitat, and explain how its research and testing methods differ from those of UxD.
Please join us for what promises to be an enlightening and entertaining evening!
<b>About the Speaker</b>
Dwayne King is the President of Pinpoint, a design strategy agency located in Portland, OR.
<b>Event Info</b>
Date: Wednesday, January 20th, 2016
Time: Informal networking is from 6:30 – 7:00, with Dwayne’s talk to begin promptly at 7:00

Special thanks to eBay and Tami Wood for hosting this event!

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. |

<b>Designing for Connections</b>
Dwayne King, Pinpoint
Humans have a deep-seated evolutionary drive to congregate and organize themselves into communities. Modern-day communities provide protection, commerce and connection. Social resources like trust and shared identity make it easier for people to work and play together, creating a more productive and prosperous society. Productivity and prosperity are normally measured in objects and people, but these resources also reside in social relations among people. This extends the idea of capital beyond physical, financial and human to include social capital. Social capital provides a framework to make deliberate investments to develop resources that inhere in social relations. Research shows that increased social capital improves health, safety, education, government and the economy.
In this presentation, Dwayne King will give an overview of the Connection Experience Design (CxD) process, explaining how it draws from techniques successfully used in other disciplines. He’ll explore what he considers its core principles: co-design, systems thinking, prototyping, and habitat, and explain how its research and testing methods differ from those of UxD.
Please join us for what promises to be an enlightening and entertaining evening!
<b>About the Speaker</b>
Dwayne King is the President of Pinpoint, a design strategy agency located in Portland, OR.
<b>Event Info</b>
Date: Wednesday, January 20th, 2016
Time: Informal networking is from 6:30 – 7:00, with Dwayne’s talk to begin promptly at 7:00

Who: Jim Blandy<br>
What: Rust<br>
Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level)<br>

Rust is meant to compete with C and C++ in performance, but also provide memory safety. Someone has written a small kernel in Rust.
Rust is only attractive to JavaScript / Python types when they run into a problem where memory consumption or processor consumption is a real limiting factor. Then, it's much easier for them to transition into Rust than C/C++, but Rust gives them the performance they need.
Some Rust killer apps:
- Mozilla's experimental browser engine, Servo (which outperforms Firefox on a single core, and destroys it when running on four cores);
- Tilde's Skylight profiling system for Rails apps, which uses Rust to handle the voluminous data produced by running apps:

Rust is meant to compete with C and C++ in performance, but also provide memory safety. Someone has written a small kernel in Rust.
Rust is only attractive to JavaScript / Python types when they run into a problem where memory consumption or processor consumption is a real limiting factor. Then, it's much easier for them to transition into Rust than C/C++, but Rust gives them the performance they need.
Some Rust killer apps:
- Mozilla's experimental browser engine, Servo (which outperforms Firefox on a single core, and destroys it when running on four cores);
- Tilde's Skylight profiling system for Rails apps, which uses Rust to handle the voluminous data produced by running apps:

Added focus: Concurrency first in Rust
Multiprocessor machines are everywhere: even mid-range mobile devices
now often have more than one processor core. But writing concurrent
code in C and C++ is challenging even for experienced developers: data
races are notoriously difficult to debug, and concurrency makes
ordinary memory bugs harder to reproduce. So programmers usually turn
to concurrency as a last resort, only after they’ve squeezed as much
performance out of their single-threaded code as possible.
But what if concurrency were practical as a method of “first resort?”
What if we could design ordinary programs around the opportunities for
parallelism they present, without introducing risk and making our code
hard to maintain for all but the wizards?
Rust is a new systems programming language from Mozilla, designed for
memory safety and trustworthy concurrency. Rust catches data races and
memory errors at compile time: you can’t forget to lock the right
mutex before accessing shared data, nor can you modify a data
structure after handing it off to another thread, nor can you free
data that another thread was using, and so on. Rust does not use
garbage collection, but instead relies on a simple set of rules for
ownership, moving, and borrowing to prevent the kinds of memory errors
that plague concurrent C and C++ code. Mozilla has used Rust to
implement an experimental browser engine named Servo, which already
outperforms Firefox’s Gecko engine on real-world web sites.
This talk will demonstrate various styles of concurrent code in Rust:
message passing, shared data protected by mutexes, and lock-free
algorithms using atomic memory operations. We’ll show how Rust’s
ownership rules, unique among production programming languages,
prevent data races. And we’ll show how to take responsibility for
correctness yourself when the compiler is too strict, using Rust’s
‘unsafe’ mode.
Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting.
