Neither is specifically Python related so please -1 if you're not interested / you feel they're too off topic. For context, Jason's email in the October meeting thread: Googling for BrainTree's offices for last meeting I came across this article about how BrainTree came to be as a business. It got me thinking about how to (profitably?) run a software development business--you know, the thing that generates money to pay developer salaries, stock the fridge with beer, rent office space, sponsor PyCon, Chipy, and other community activities. Would anyone be interested in giving a talk on this? Given EBay's recent acquisition of Braintree someone talking about this is even more relevant and would make it the BEST MEETING EVER!

If I choose to spend $10 a month, I could decide to go with Google and use $5 for a monthly git-tip allowance. The alternative options are interesting, but not quite this exact fit.

It does! I don't know how likely it is that we can jump start streaming for other python groups, but once we have more documentation and automation for deploying the encoder and collector to rackspace, it will be easier to help other people do this.

We have three veterans talking on topics for all audiences; advanced to no-prior Python experience; all welcome. If you're interested in Python or excited to get technical with some local experts, this meeting is for you. Thank you to our kind sponsors Braintree https://www.braintreepayments.com/ For space, food, drink... and for your continued support. RSVP: http://chipy.org Where: 111 North Canal Street #455 Chicago, IL 60606 When: This Thursday, December 12th food starts at 7pm Topics: - *The Chicago Process: How Braintree Develops Software* (0:15:00 Minutes) By: Adam Forsyth Braintree needs to be highly available and secure, while still maintaining a rapid development pace and strict backwards compatibility. In order to achieve that, we use what has become known as the "Chicago Process". This involves pairing, strict TDD, a team structure, and weekly iterations, all to empower the devs to make decisions and get work of a high quality done while avoiding siloing. - *A Visual Guide To Pandas* (0:20:00 Minutes) By: Jason Wirth Pandas is the data-munging Swiss Army knife of the Python world. Often you know how your data should look but it's not so obvious how to get there, so I'll present a visual approach to learning the library and data manipulation. - *Storm (with python (and a side of clojure))* (0:15:00 Minutes) By: Philip Doctor A walking tour of Storm, what it is, what you can do, and how you can use it with Python.

He needs to know if your place has any of the following. If not, talk to him in advance so that he can make preparations to bring equipment. *Presenter * - (something that works) Podium - Something for the presenter to stand behind and put their laptop on. - (yes) VGA Monitor on a small table near the podium - this will be what is being displayed by the projector. It is nice if you have it, but not at all a requirement. - (yes) Power to podium so the laptop doesn't have to run on batteries. - (yes) 15 pin VGA cable from podium to projector. (not HDMI) - (yes) Projector and screen *PA System* - Amp and speakers - built in or freestanding. Even if this is not needed for the audience to hear the presentation (which is hard to predict), it is needed to get good audio for the recording. - Wireless headset - presenters will typically type, it is hard to hold a mic and type. - Hand held mic - The MC needs something, and often it will be handed to people to make a 30 second announcement. - Unbalanced audio input from laptop - once in a while the presenter will want to feed the audio from their laptop into the PA system. Holding the hand held mic next to the laptop speakers is often good enough. *Recording Station* - (yes) Front Of House table 30' from podium (This is where the recording will happen.) - (yes) It needs to be big enough for 2 people with laptops - (yes) power to table - (carl to supply mics) Balanced line level between PA and table - either from or to, depending on who is supplying mics. - (maybe) Wired ethernet from podium to table. - (maybe) wired Internet connection - 1.8mbs for streaming. (optional) *Additional Information needed* - Where can AV equipment be unloaded? ( Loading dock south side ) - Can you provide volunteers to meet us to help unload equipment? (yes) - What are loading doc hours, and who is a contact for the loading doc? (will email) - Where can a jeep SUV be parked during the meeting? The jeep is used to bring equipment.

I expect to collect at most 12 rows per year, so it is simply 1. create account 2. use your account to edit your row as many times as needed.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I'm not sure how well this works, but I've been using it with a secondary trivial account. http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-a-Google-Drive-Client-on-Ubuntu-381532.shtml It seems to work well enough. It syncs up my .vim notes and other small stuff. Naturally dropbox has native support and had it for a while now. I would probably trust google to have a better storage solution and reliability then dropbox, just based on the size of the company and volume of data it handles on a daily basis. You are giving Google a bit more of your data to read through for the paranoid minded. Though considering how much of my personal data I have on gmail/docs/drive. I personally find the integration they provided well worth the personal privacy cost. I've had a few dropbox accounts over the years and they've mainly collected dust. My biggest seller for GDrive is the Google docs integration which is lacking the last time I looked. That being said, I am biased towards Google. I don't have stock in the company or work for them, but I really do like their product line, and they've mostly kept me happy over the years. Also, since a friend of mine recently went started working for msft and I get bombarded by msft propaganda whether I want it or not, I'll throw in sky drive which is Microsoft's baby. It's a Microsoft product, if you've had a good experience with the company, might be worth a try, if not.. .moving on. Oh yes.. also..if you want you can also look into ownCloud ( http://owncloud.org/ ). Self hosted equivalent of probably everyone of the services mentioned already.

The static type hints remind me of PyPy's RPython. That then makes me wonder how the performance of Cobra would compare to PyPy ? IMHO, in the world of "improved" pythonesque languages, PyPy is way ahead of everything else. I wonder if this is actually a fork of PyPy with the contract syntax added? If not, it should have been -- that would easily solve the .NET/Mono dependency. -Rob On 12/24/2013 03:43 AM, Tal Liron wrote: > An interesting language with a Pythonesque syntax, Eiffel/D-like > contracts, static typing, runs on .NET/Mono: > > http://cobra-language.com/ > > Has anybody here played with it?

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: TL;DR -- I've seen an increase in usage recently, I think it's happening fast enough, and I don't think backing away from Python 3 is a good idea. At Braintree, we've seen an uptick recently in requests for a Python 3 version of our server-side payments library, so I made a beta version available a couple of months ago. Internally, we're on 2.7, though I've ported a couple of internal apps to 3 because of issues like this . I think Alex overstates the level of support for Python 3 in foundational libraries. For example, Django 1.5 was the first release to support Python 3 at all, and the current version (1.6) is the first version where it's nearly on par with Python 2. I disagree with the basic premise that the low level of adoption at this point is a failure. It really took until Python 3.3 for targeting it to feel worthwhile to me for existing projects -- porting got easier and the improvements from 2.7 got more significant. I do agree that Python 3 is a relatively incremental improvement (and Guido has said in some places they didn't go far enough), but that just means the transition will happen more gradually as not everyone will see a reason to upgrade at any given time. That's not a reason to avoid backwards incompatible changes, and a Python 2.8 release would only slow things down even further. While "we're all used to the warts" may be an acceptable reason not to fix them for existing Python programmers, it's not for all the people who have yet to learn Python -- and if I was starting now, I would definitely rather learn Python 3. Which brings me to the final point -- lots of Python courses (if not most) are now using Python 3. As those people enter the workforce, more and more projects will be started on Python 3, because that's what the people who started them are used to. This got a little long, if only I had a blog.

Last week I spent a little time putting my basic definition of the project into my github and if anyone sees any holes in the definition and wants to flesh out some of it please let me know. Moving into the new year I hope to get down to some actual coding of the pieces and hope to do so in a manner that others will be comfortable using pieces of for whatever purpose in the future. Though the main thought from me was to make it more useful for those traveling to new locations and with mobility issues I hope to have input and have it serve others better who have other issues with the current planners. The github is: https://github.com/randy7771026/Visual-CTA-Chicago/blob/master/README.md There is this google doc that expands the job search part and needs to be included in the github and then the github link one of us needs to add to atrium but I am not sure where to do that and do not remember if I have access to that. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1reQapENxtroOArOeK9V99BvKSz89JRIxGgZVBnfKjGs/edit As most of you know my skill level is basic python so I need some growth as well or help with the web side of this and either going ahead with what java already exist and making changes there or doing a rewrite to python. There are also questions as to where to house / host this. I understand that rackspace and Smart Chicago Collaborative are options but do not want to make a unilateral decision that would not be an open one and I also need guidance on using others code mentioned in the readme as to what is open and what is not. The second question is about the archived listserve and I have forgotten the word for when we used to have servers that could cross two area codes and messages were sort of pony expressed through them. Anyway specifically I would love to get my hands on post I made in the 90s on what eventually became yahoo but iirc had two names before it became Yahoo groups.

I use what's supplied by Red Hat for RHEL (which is the same stuff CentOS uses). This comes from having accountability for what's on the systems and the need to be able to ask Red Hat for help if something on the system breaks. Until Red Hat supplies python 3, there's no way I'll ever be able to use it. -- David Rock david at graniteweb.com
