Subject: [melbourne-pug] [OT] Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement IP Chapter
	leak
Message-ID: <CAOZrvMNs_WKah5ErnJhwMu0yP89KVz1gAq0o3eqYxZOmjLvhZQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi everyone,
You may have heard that wikileaks released a leak of the IP chapter of the
Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement.
This is an international trade agreement being negotiated in secret. There
are some very concerning proposals in the leak. Criminalisation of
copyright infringement, legal protections for DRM, ISP liability,
terminating internet access for copyright infringement, rules around
patentable subject matter and rigid restrictions around exceptions to
copyright.

Once it's in trade agreements it's really hard to go back on, trade
agreements often require signing up to a list of old ones. They stack on
top of each other and stick around for a really long time.

Choice have a petition to release the full text which I would strongly urge
you to sign and pass on:
https://choice.good.do/dont-trade-it-away/release-the-tpp-text/

Cheers,
Bianca

 Supercomputers. Monday 2 December, 6PM, Inspire 9, 41 Stewart St Richmond.
Message-ID: <CAKADsbcUtzeZ78-3DQrUhMuQHxSsd+qoxnx8YBsfJy+NM8a3tg@mail.gmail.com>

Dear Melbourne Pythonistas,

Tomorrow's Monday 2 is the December meeting of the Melbourne Python Users Group.

Time:  6pm
Venue: Inspire 9, 41 Stewart St. Richmond. 50m from Richmond Train Station.

Unfortunately Bianca Gibson can't talk to us about Python and LaTeX
(maybe some other time), so here's the definitive lineup:

# Luke Miller -- My big gay adventure. Making, releasing and selling
an indie game made in Python

# Nathan Faggian -- Python and Supercomputers: Celery, Redis, Mongo

If you have a tip to share, or want to give a short presentation on a
library you've been using lately, please just come forward at the
start of the meeting.

See you tomorrow,

The MPUG organisers

Hi All

I haven't been to an MPUG meeting before and was wondering what the parking
situation is like around Inspire 9.

Thanks

In general that area of Richmond is painful, I would park at an inner city
train station or near a tram line and come in the few stops to Richmond
station.

I don't drive so perhaps not the best person to comment, but there is
limited parking in Stewart St and the immediate vicinity.

Swan, Cremorne and Lennox Sts all have a reasonable amount of on-street
parking.

Further up Swan St, there are some car parks, such as the one at Coles.

Regards
Graeme

Message-ID: <CAOZrvMPDgAg5rTsX7xyNTEccuX7S8+Dmkb-tBd1T96gnMuOsAA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a python 3 library that implements decision trees. I know
how to implement them myself and have done so before, but I'll look for a
library first.

It's for a migraine trigger analysis tool. I'm thinking decision trees
largely because non technical and often unwell users need to be able to
reason with the findings off line, and decision trees are easy to follow.

My records will have varying entries. They may be making entries about
eating chocolate, find it's not a trigger, then stop doing so. It would be
good to have a confidence rating on the leaves.

Cheers,
Bianca

Hi Bianca,

I would check out "sklearn", which is a "scikit" add-on for scipy. At a
glance it looks like the latest versions may support Python 3. My
experience has been with Python 2.

Kaggle have some online tutorials which include the use of sklearn for
decision trees, which might help to get started. I can send more  specific
links if you can't find them easily.

Cheers :)

Hi Bianca,

That sounds like a good project! As Tennessee says, try scikit-learn; it supports Python 3 as of version 0.14.

You may have to build it from source though. It would be great if you could put together a conda package or Debian package for it... :)

* Riak
* RethinkDB
* ...

So if you think you could be interested, drop me a line, and I'll get my

Hi, Bianca,

In all the time I've been attending, we've never had a January
meeting. Last meeting (December) we adjourned until February.

When we expect you to talk about Latex and Python, if you are
available and the circumstances are favourable.

Cheers,

We've tended to not bother with a Jan meeting around the usual time, though
there has sometimes been a less formal gathering at a pub some time around
mid Jan when people are slightly more likely to be around. I might put
forward a date for that so I can actually turn up given my inability to
make it to recent meetings :)
