When: Doors open at 5:00pm, event starts at 5:30pm
Where: NedSpace - 1400 SW 5th Avenue, third floor, Portland, OR (between Columbia & Clay)
Crowdfunding is hot.
Portland is red hot....as a top five leading city in funding Kickstarter crowdfunding projects
These three are BEYOND red hot...Within the realm of local crowdfunding success stories, this gang is lava red, burn your mouth, hot as hell, with each raising over one hundred fifty grand.
How did they do it?
Come join this explosively interactive session as the irreverent and oft time incomprehensible startup founder John Friess (CEO Journey Gym) leads an open conversation with three local founders that have each raised over $150,000 from their Kickstarter projects.
What worked?
What didn't?
What would they do different should they do it all over again? What caught them by surprise? What are their top tips to others considering a crowdfunding campaign? What is their advice regarding other crowdfunding platforms?
How did the spread the word and market it? What was the best and worse advice they'd received before their campaigns? What insights do they have regarding day to day management of a campaign? What are the most important things to do prior to a campaign launch?
Come hear their stories, learn for yourself, and ask your questions.

Learn Algorithms, Part I, on Coursera - Study Group - First Meeting
Roll back
| description |
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.

UPDATE: we postponed the meeting 1 week. It will be at Red and Black cafe. First assignment is due at 9pm on Sunday.

Quantified Self Show & Tell
Roll back

February's theme will be: HABITS
Much of what interests people in QS is habit-related (changing bad habits, establishing and maintaining new habits), so it's not surprising that this topic comes up quite a bit in free-form discussions, so we decided to dedicate a meetup to it.
If you have an experience with habits and QS (if you're a Lift user, for example), come and share it!
Here's our agenda:
Informal Social and Gadget Time - Starting at 6pm
Come early to socialize with other QSers and share what hardware, apps, and other technologies are helping you track your life. Bring your gadgets so that we can all see them, play with them, and hear your experiences with them!
Intro and Announcements - 6:30 sharp!
Show and Tell
Just like when you were in kindergarten, we encourage you to share something within the theme of the meetup. It doesn't a formal presentation, and can be as much as 10 minutes or as short as you like. Let us know in advance to guarantee your slot. Time permitting, we may watch pre-recorded presentations from other QS groups.
Discussions
We'll break out into groups. You can propose a topic yourself, join someone else's, or talk to the people that shared something during Show and Tell. |

Portland Ruby Brigade monthly meeting

We'll have pizza 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 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. 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!

Day We Fight Back against Mass Surveillance
Roll back

KBOO will devote the full day on February 11th to a special day of programming on the people's movement to take back the internet. A broad coalition of activist groups, companies, and online platforms will hold a worldwide day of activism in opposition to the NSA's mass spying regime on February 11th.
Dubbed "The Day We Fight Back", the day of activism was announced on the eve of the anniversary of the tragic passing of activist and technologist Aaron Swartz. The protest is both in his honor and in celebration of the victory over the Stop Online Piracy Act two years ago this month, which he helped spur.
KBOO will feature speeches by Aaron Swartz and other internet activists, as well as live interviews and updates on the day of action to pressure lawmakers to end mass surveillance -- of both Americans and the citizens of the whole world.
Remember to support KBOO during our winter membership drive - call 877-500-KBOO |

The DAMA Portland Chapter is pleased to welcome Dan Murray, an expert in Data Visualization and Tableau Software. Dan does not work for Tableau and is not selling Tableau. However, Tableau is one of the leading data visualization software applications and it is a fine vehicle to demonstrate best of breed visualization techniques. Dan is an author with a book just recently published.
Every enterprise has data scattered across many different systems, spreadsheets, and databases. Expert Daniel Murray explains how to create insight by building your knowledge of Tableau Desktop, adding best practices learned from working with big data at the most demanding enterprise clients in the world. You will learn about proven methods for building dashboards that load quickly and clearly communicate the information you uncover. Case studies are referenced to demonstrate how other enterprises have leveraged Data Visualization to achieve excellent outcomes.
• Reduce the backlog of information requests in your IT Group by enabling information consumers to build their own reports without sacrificing good data governance<br>
• Keep pace with the accelerating volume, variety, and velocity of data by leveraging Tableau's ability to connect to over 35 different enterprise data sources<br>
• Combine disparate data sets from proprietary and public data sources to build interactive dashboards in a fraction of the time required by traditional BI tools<br>
• Enhance information contained in your source data by leveraging Tableau's ad hoc sets, groups, calculation functions, and table calculations to provide dynamic and insightful analysis<br>
• Leverage Tableau's unique ability to run in memory or via direct connections to data sources to effectively manage limited hardware resources and insure high availability and good performance<br>
• Support your managers' intuition with timely and insightful analysis that can adapt at the speed of their thought

This month we will be doing a roundtable focused on "Agile estimation." We start on time at 12p, take the first 5 to 10 minutes to generate a list of subtopics and vote to select two to three to discuss. Then, we discuss the selected subtopics as a group before closing at 12:50p to select next month's topic and adjourn at 1p.
Feel free to bring your lunch. Feel free to continue the conversation afterward. Bring your stories, problems, Agile buddies, and Agile-curious colleagues. |

Ruby Programmers Informal Co-Working
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Based off an idea from the pdxruby mailing list, this event is for any ruby programmers who want to informally co-work from a cafe. I'll be at Floyd's Coffee (http://workfrom.co/floyds-coffee-old-town), probably wearing a green hoodie and working on ruby.
If you'd like me to email you about each weekly co-working session, you can email me (Mike LaPeter) at my first initial + last name at gmail. |

RainSec is an informal meetup of like-minded security professionals to discuss topics of interest in a non-work, non-vendor setting. Preferably while drinking just enough to forget our day jobs.
While this is a public event open to any interested parties, our target audience are folks experienced with information security in a professional capacity.
