Message-ID: Hi all, I'm not sure whether there was no meetup last month or whether I only missed the announcement. This month there's again the situation that we have five Tuesdays, so I thought I'd better check - is there anything planned for this month? If so, is it for today or for next week? Is there anything I can do to help make it happen? Cheers, Manuel -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

However, I don't know anything beyond that. > > Cheers, > > Manuel > > > _______________________________________________ > Edinburgh mailing list > Edinburgh at python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edinburgh From mark.smith at practicalpoetry.co.uk Tue May 24 10:22:51 2016 From: mark.smith at practicalpoetry.co.uk (Mark Smith) Date: Tue, 24 May 2016 14:22:51 +0000 Subject: [Python Edinburgh] There *is* a Pub Meetup Tonight Message-ID: Hi All, Sorry for being so horribly late with this.

It's a free, but ticketed event with limited space. These are our most popular events, so please get a ticket from the link below: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/python-edinburgh-dojo-tickets-25674200224?aff=email1 In case you haven't been to a Python dojo before, here's a description: A dojo is an opportunity to get together with a bunch of other developers and practice our craft in a friendly and informal environment. It's an opportunity to learn from (or help) your peers and to work with technologies that maybe you don't encounter in your everyday role. We loosely follow the format of the London Python Dojos: ## Stage 1: Gather We all get together at an agreed place and time. We chat until we think that everyone is here. ## Stage 2: Pick a Project Everyone gets around the whiteboard and throws around ideas for something we could attempt to achieve in a couple of hours. We put together a list and then everyone votes on their favourite idea. The ideal idea should be fun, challenging but not impossible in the time. ## Stage 3: Pick Teams Teams are chosen organically based on general experience and more specific experience with the kind of chosen project. The teams should all be of mixed experience -- we encourage total newbies to get stuck in! ## Stage 4: Solve the Problem Each team gathers to work somewhere in the space provided and attempts to solve the problem. The solution can lean whatever way the team decides: practical, hacky, fun or totally ludicrous. ## Stage 5: Demo your Solution It's showtime! You demo your solution (working or not) to the other teams and say what you learned (if anything). This is particularly good if your solution is silly. Depending on how the whole group feels, we may or may not elect a winner. There is no prize except experience :) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
