create Calagator::Event 1250470350 Webinar: Estimates for Professional Services Firms Roll back

description nil → We regularly ask engineers, consultants, software developers, financial analysists, managers, and others for estimates of duration and cost. Businesses make substantial decisions on those estimates, and can be alternatively delighted or disappointed by the results of those estimates. But do we ever take a step back to consider how we might improve the estimation process? What you’ll learn – Trust, accurate reporting, and math are prerequisites for good estimation – How Monte Carlo simulations can produce reliable estimates for fixed deliverable packages – Why historical estimation bias can help with new or difficult estimates We will also have a live thirty-minute Q&A period after the presentation. If you have Microsoft Excel installed on your computer, you can participate in two live lab exercises where we will work through a Monte Carlo simulation and the creation of a historical bias analysis calculator. This presentation isn’t available on iPhones or Android devices.

update Calagator::Event 1250469629 Portland Ruby Brigade monthly meeting Roll back

description 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 CrowdCompass for providing the venue 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. The group has been meeting since August 2002 for presentations, demos and discussions. Every month 35-75 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for Ruby. If you'd like to present or have a topic you'd like discussed, please post to the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/pdxruby">mailing list</a>. The group usually meets on the first Tuesday of the month, "Ruby Tuesday" -- see you there! </em> → We'll have pizza & beer starting at 6pm, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations. This upcoming meeting is going to be awesome. Terian Koscik will be facilitating her <a href="http://railsconf.com/program/workshops#prop_1697">workshop from RailsConf 2016</a>. Check out the instructions presented in <a href="http://pineconedoesthings.com/surreal.html">web comic form</a>! # PRESENTATIONS at 7pm ### Collaborate on a Surrealist Rails App by Terian Koscik Surrealism is an artistic practice in which mundane but dissimilar ideas are juxtaposed to create surprising or nonsensical ideas. This has interesting results when applied to startup culture. In this workshop, rather than finding a market niche which can be exploited for fame, revenue, or power, we will be using our skills as Rails developers to create products with no practical use whatsoever. We will use a variation of the surrealist game Exquisite Corpse to create collaborative Rails apps, then present them to one another in a mockery of venture capitalism. After presentations we'll have more socializing time. # Thanks to CrowdCompass for providing the venue 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.

update Calagator::Event 1250470294 AgilePDX: Gender and Agile Teams. Is There a Problem Here? Roll back

description In September of 2016 the Agile Alliance held a community Open Space meeting in Portland and one of our community facilitated a topic on Agile as a context for improved workplace experience for women. Twelve to fifteen people attended her topic—and split pro and con right down the middle with men and women on both sides. Over the last few months, software-related Meetups all over Portland have held discussions focused on women in STEM and women in software development. Now AgilePDX invites you into an Agile-focused discussion on gender dynamics on Agile teams. What do you think? Has Agile improved, hindered, or left the issue of gender dynamics completely untouched? Does self-organization mean women have more of a voice? When men and women speak up about gender dynamics on teams is anyone left out? What about “gamergate?” Do the Agile Manifesto and Principles imply anything about gender dynamics on teams? And, if so, what is that? Or, is there something additional in the Agile “secret sauce” that improves (or hinders) how men and women work and play together on Agile teams? Would you want your son or daughter on an Agile team? This month, AgilePDX gathers a panel of two men and two women to consider the state of Agile and gender diversity. To follow the conversation before the event, join the AgilePDX Slack. Panelists: Megan Bigelow -- a connector and tech community leader, having co-founded Portland Women in Tech (PDXWIT) and continues to serve as its President. In this role she's created a platform to connect tech women to companies, mentors and practical skills. PDXWIT is 2000 strong and includes the support of 30+ tech companies. Above all, Megan has a commitment to building community to solve issues. In her day job, she is the Manager of Customer Support at Jama Software. Erick Banks - Sr. Quality Assurance Engineer at Puppet. Hosted the discussion on gender inequality in tech at Agile Open Northwest (http://aonw2015.blogspot.com/2015/02/gender-inequality-in-tech.html). My first degree was in physics, my second in computer science, two of the most male-dominated majors. Incidentally I'm single. Interested in gender equality at work largely for selfish reasons. My hope is for my nieces to feel comfortable entering technical fields like mine without the burden of those fields being so gender imbalanced. I try to keep current on issues concerning gender in the workplace by reading (preferably data driven) articles online, a collection of some of them can be found here: https://github.com/ThoughtCrhyme/TechAndGender → In September of 2016 the Agile Alliance held a community Open Space meeting in Portland and one of our community facilitated a topic on Agile as a context for improved workplace experience for women.
