requests"

Description: A high level overview on what python web apps do to
efficiently service multiple web requests. Will be briefly going over multi
threading and multi processing and their uses and tradeoffs.

Hi All,

Would anyone like to take up the task of updating the chennaipy/talks
repo (https://github.com/Chennaipy/talks) and bring it up to date?

Its just a matter of looking at the meetup links -
meetup.com/chennaipy and then putting it into the readme and sending a
PR.

Of course it might need some coordination to get the slides from the speakers.

Best Regards,
Shrayas

Thank you. No such deadline :)

But if I were to give one, then like the suits, I'm inclined to say
"yesterday" :D

 21 April 2018
Message-ID: <CAGJO6SKHnx8GsPMR2Jk2fCdFgpX-2+aRcpXDTv2zMi8DGM3CwA@mail.gmail.com>

 Hello everyone,
We are interested in organizing the third meetup of the Papers We Love
Chennai Chapter on Saturday, 21 April 2018. ?Papers We Love? is a group for
reading and discussing Computer Science research papers (example). The
meetup will happen from 3pm to 4.30pm at the office of Viasat India
<https://www.viasat.com/locations/india-%E2%80%93-chennai> in SP Infocity
campus (Google Maps <https://goo.gl/maps/XtXuwA6fF8H2>).

We are going to present on this paper: *"Multiworld Testing Decision
Service:  A System for Experimentation, Learning, and Decision-Making
<https://github.com/Microsoft/mwt-ds/raw/master/images/MWT-WhitePaper.pdf>."
Alekh Agarwal, et al. Technical Report. 2016.*

*How it works:* Someone proposes a research paper that they want to present
at the next meeting. At the meeting, the presentation happens for 30-60
minutes followed by a discussion with the audience. The meetings are open
for all to attend. Refreshments will be served.

*Pre-requisites for meetup on Saturday:* We received permission to use
Viasat SP Infocity campus as a venue. Due to security policies, any outside
visitors will have to RSVP before attending the event. *Please email your
name and contact number at least one day in advance*.

The exact address is Viasat India Private Limited Module 1 & 2, 5th Floor,
Block C, SP Infocity, No 40, MGR Salai, Kandanchavadi, Perungudi, Chennai
600096.

If you are coming by public transport, there are two options:
1. Chennai MRTS Chennai Beach to Velachery Line: Get down at Taramani MRTS
Railway Station and take an auto to SP Infocity Main Gate. Auto shouldn't
cost Rs.30-40.and you will reach in 5 minutes.
2. Get down at Kandanchavadi bus stand and walk for 10 minutes on Anna
Nedun Salai Road. Please come to the Main Gate.

*Benefits*

   - It is possible to develop a principled understanding of technical
   problems when you explore the research literature. For example, the
   Meltdown <https://meltdownattack.com/meltdown.pdf> and Spectre processor
   vulnerabilities were first published as research papers.
   - Research papers are more trust-worthy since most of them are
   peer-reviewed i.e., they are published after their claims are reviewed by
   other experts in that area. In contrast to this, blogs and news websites
   are incentivized to hype recent advances and promote click-bait content
   <http://approximatelycorrect.com/2017/03/28/the-ai-misinformation-epidemic/>
   .
   - You might step out of your comfort zone (research ideas are sometimes
   complex) and meet interesting people.
   - Computer Science is advancing at a tremendous pace. If you engage with
   the research community, your knowledge will grow and compound over time.
   This knowledge can help you solve challenging business problems
   <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eRx5Wo3xYA>.
      - ?When I talk to researchers, when I talk to people wanting to
      engage in entrepreneurship, I tell them that if you read research papers
      consistently, if you seriously study half a dozen papers a week
and you do
      that for two years, after those two years you will have learned
a lot. This
      is a fantastic investment in your own long term development? ? Andrew

We look forward to seeing you there. Thank you.

Hi Praveen, Do you want a workshop that is open to the public? If yes, 
then we can support the effort.

Hi Vijay,

Yes, we can have this open to the public.. , I am wondering if there is
someone whom you can refer who can deliver a speech on the Python skills
specific to VFX/Animation domain/pipeline. if this does not work we can go
ahead have a basic python workshop which any of your core team can
deliver.. pls let me know on suitable dates and next steps..

thanks,
Praveen
