Hi everyone:
With inspiration from Tiago Mendes, we've decided to run TriPython
meetups
online, with the first meeting Thursday August 27th at 6pm. Each
meeting
has one 'featured' speaker who gives a talk on a topic of their
choice for
30+ minutes, followed by short lightning talks from the audience.
We are still in need of a featured speaker for our inaugural
quarantine
Tripython meetup!
Please don't feel like it has to be a super polished presentation on
a
package you wrote from scratch . It can just be your first thoughts
on
some useful things you have learned about a third-party package that
you
have incorporated into some code. For instance:
* Are you working a site using Django 3.0? What is that like?
* Did you create a simple gui to make it easier for people to
interface
with your back end?
* Have you started using holoviews or bokeh, and can explain some
basic
concepts about how they work vs matplotlib?
* Have you recently switched from numpy to pandas for your analysis
(or
vice versa)?
Issues like this are really interesting, practical, and often
translate
into usable code or practical knowledge for people.
If you have anything like this you think you might want to present,
or
even if you are not sure and just want to chat about it, please
contact me
or Chris Calloway ([2]cbc at unc.edu). I think we can have a vibrant
online
TriPython meetup -- quarantine style -- going forward!
Thanks again to Tiago Mendes for encouraging this move 🙂
Best,
Eric

August
Hi, TriPython. Eric and I discussed rebooting fourth Thursday
TriPython
meetings using RENCI's Zoom (we have an unlimited license). We also
discussed doing it every other month to interleave with the
every-other-month PyData Triangle meetings. And we discussed having
those
meetings start at 6pm instead of 7pm since cross-Triangle travel to a
meeting site will not be involved.
So, consider this a call for speakers. If you would like to the
featured
speaker for an online meeting on Thursday, August 27 at 6pm, please
speak
up on this list. We will also have lightning talks. And with this
much
notice, we ought to have some really good lightning talks. Maybe also
signal your intention to give a lightning talk (let's say 7 minutes)
as it
will be harder to recognize volunteers for lightning talks at an
online
meeting. That way, we can have a queue of lightning talkers ready to
go.
