In Daring Greatly\, based o n twelve years of pioneering research\, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the cult ural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is\, in trut h\, our most accurate measure of courage. \;\n \;\nSimilarly\, in Being Wrong\, journalist Kathryn Schulz argues that error is the fundame ntal human condition and should be celebrated as such. In this view\, er ror is both a given and a gift – one that can transform our worldviews\, our relationships\, and\, most profoundly\, ourselves. \;\n \;\nD aring Greatly and Being Wrong were made for each other. Join Deeple Pate l and Melody Dawn for a discussion and exploration of these two powerful books and their endless takeaways. Most of us avoid the topics of being wrong and vulnerable\, but these two authors have laid out the undeniab le reasons for why it is so beneficial for us to push past this fear and discomfort. Whether you read one\, both or some portion of these books\ , you are welcome in the conversation. \;\n \;\nCome ready to shar e your unique perspective and learn from others’ experiences. \;\n 3\;\nPDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization.

She'll be giving us a special treat: her well-received keynote from Rubyfuza! Here's the abstract: \;\n \;\n>\; Langua ge matters more than you think. And the more you think\, the more you ne ed language. This talk explores the connections between language and pro blem solving\, how the metaphors that we use can expand or constrain our thinking\, and how it all relates to our identities as software develop ers and as human beings. Along the way we'll learn about linguistics\, c ategory theory\, Russian colors\, gigantic bridges in France\, and how t o pronounce the word "\;lacuna"\;. And you'll definitely have so me things to think about. Hopefully\, in new ways. \;\n \;\n## **T hanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer\, pizza &\; snack s this month! And EXTRA SPECIAL thanks to New Relic for sponsoring Cora line's trip to come hang out with us!** \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nA RRIVING BY BIKE?

In a world where women earn less money than men and spend\, on average\, eleven fewer years in the workforce\, women have to plan and work harder than their male counterparts. No more excuses! It’s time to take ahold of financial planning so that you can make clear\, confident money decisions that will best benefit your futur e. \;\n \;\nJoin us for an evening of discussion about all things personal finance.

Randy Shoup\, a 25-year tech veteran in Silicon Valley\, wi ll share his insights into whether and when an organization should consi der migrating to microservices and how to do that successfully\, referen cing examples from Google\, eBay\, Stitch Fix\, as well as many smaller organizations he has worked with. \;\n \;\n**The Talk** \;\n 3\;\nOne of the most powerful trends in software today is building large systems out of composable microservices. Many large-scale web companies have migrated over time to this architecture – and for good reason. But \, as with any powerful technique\, microservices come with their own br and of tradeoffs\, and it is important to be aware of them before decidi ng whether they are appropriate in any particular case. They are not for every scale of problem\, for every stage of company\, or for every team . \;\n \;\nThis session takes a pragmatic approach to microservice s\, and compares them to the alternatives at different stages of company evolution. Using examples from Google\, eBay\, and Stitch Fix\, as well as from smaller organizations\, it makes practical suggestions about wh ether\, when\, and how an organization should consider adopting a micros ervices architecture. Assuming microservices are the appropriate choice\ , it outlines an experience-based\, incremental approach to making a suc cessful re-architecture to microservices. \;\n \;\n--- \;\n \;\n### Dana Scheider \;\n \;\nDana Scheider will speak about exe cutive dysfunction\, a set of cognitive/psychological conditions that af fect the brain's planning and organization functions. These conditions a ffect a lot of neurodivergent folks and a lot of people who have them do n't even know what they are. The talk discusses what executive dysfuncti on is and how to deal with these conditions as an affected individual or someone who has to work with one. \;\n \;\n\n\nTags: meetup:event =243295845\, meetup:group=Portland-Ruby-Brigade\, open source\, ruby\, s oftware development\, web development\, portland oregon\, ruby on rails\ , mobile development\, pdx\, pdxruby\n\nImported from: http://calagator. org/events/1250472749 URL:https://www.meetup.com/Portland-Ruby-Brigade/events/243295845/ SUMMARY:Portland Ruby Brigade - Monthly meeting LOCATION:New Relic: 111 SW 5th Avenue\, Suite 2900\, Portland OR 97204 us SEQUENCE:4 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170622T211927Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171205T130000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171205T120000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170622T211927Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171127T183129Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250472118 DESCRIPTION:Please note that space is limited for this event.
