CodePDX: The ins and outs of learning to code.
Jama South

Learning to code can be a daunting journey, and everyone seems to have a different approach. For our first meeting we'll discuss the various methods that have worked in the past for learning. We'll share resources, tips, and experiences and have an open discussion about tech education.

This meeting is not an intro to programming, but instead a discussion surrounding methods of learning from a variety of backgrounds.

Panel:

-Tracy Abrahms, engineer @ Urban Airship

-Carl Hall, engineer @ Cloudability

-Flora Worley, engineer @ Quick Left

CodePDX: Languages from 30,000 feet.
New Relic

Join us for the 2nd CodePDX meeting!

Ever wondered what makes one programming language better than another? Why some languages have died in popularity over the years?

Adron Hall will be giving us an over view of various different languages of the past and present.

Whether you've never written a line of code, or simply want to get a more wholesome idea of the language landscape, you should come.

Please RSVP so that we can get a rough headcount for pizza.

Thanks to our wonderful sponsors New Relic and Twilio for the venue and pizza.

CodePDX: Behind the request
New Relic

Join us for the 3rd CodePDX meeting! Please RSVP so we can get a headcount for pizza.

Jonan from New Relic will be giving us some insight into what happens when you type in a URL and hit enter in your browser. From DNS, through the network layers, into the server and down through the application stack.

Even experienced developers will likely find something new in this deep dive into the life of a web request.

Thanks once again to New Relic for hosting us and sponsoring drinks and pizza!
