From michael at grazebrook.com Fri Jul 4 15:19:35 2014 From: michael at grazebrook.com (Michael Grazebrook) Date: Fri, 04 Jul 2014 14:19:35 +0100 Subject: [python-uk] Looking for work In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <53B6A9E7.2000606@grazebrook.com> Hi fellow Python fans, I'm looking for contract work and immediately available. My CV is here: www.grazebrook.com/cv Briefly: I've been contracting for nearly 3 decades. I've only a few years Python experience but it's my favourite language. I'm weak at web skills, strong on analysis, design, software engineering. I mostly work in the City. If anyone is active in an open source Python project, I'm open to suggestions for good uses for my time while I look for work. Michael Grazebrook.

Here's some more details about what we got up to: We started with a talk by Mark Needham and Nigel Small about Neo4j and it's Python library py2neo. They showed us some advantages of graph databases, some cypher queries for extracting data and in his example a graph of data about the show 24. Mark asked me to remind people of the link to the repository for the Neo4j Python 24 Hackathon: https://github.com/nigelsmall/24 Our main event was group coding and the task voted in was "3 letter word game" sort of like the mastermind game, but a 3 letter dictionary word is selected, and the only feedback you get on your guesses is just "number of characters correct and in the right place". It was a good choice of task, as it's simplicity allowed time for people to start thinking about making an AI to play the game. And since we've done a better-than-normal job of corralling the teams' efforts into a git repository this time... for your viewing pleasure: https://github.com/ldnpydojo/3-letter-word - do bare in mind we only had an hour, although some of us couldn't resist a little post dojo tinkering... August is our month off at the Dojo, but I must remind you to sign up for the UK's Python event of the year: http://pyconuk.org/ It's proper fun and you'll learn loads too. It's over this long weekend: 19th - 22nd September. Finally, since I was too shy to mention it on the night: we (Hogarth) are hiring. If you fancy working with some of the most impressive Python devs I've met, come join us. Drop me a line for details, although beware: hitting reply to this email doesn't do what you think it does, a lesson certain people won't forget... ;-) Tom - @tomviner - @ldnpydojo ?

We're launching it by setting a target to get 10 million data points about companies into OpenCorporates in the next 10 days.

I'm a contract worker with 3 decades of experience. I normally work in the City. I'm trying to shift my skills from C++ & various relational databases to Python. Python is my favourite language. (If you were there for the 'pointless' dojo, that was my idea). I've only a few years Python experience and some holes in my skill set (especially web development). But I'm strong on algorithmic work and general development skills. At my full rate, I'd be too expensive for you, largely because of City skills I wouldn't be using. But I'm also not likely to get work until the end of the holidays. So if you would consider making me an offer at a rate which would be fair given the short-term commitment and sub-set of skills you'd be using, I'd be interested: it would be justified more by what I'd learn than the money.

They're great courses (excellent material and I'm a pretty good trainer). They're not cheap and they're best value if done for several people.

He was great. I'd hire him if you can track him down. ;-) (The reason John was so great was because he was quite willing to throw the "materials" out the window and answer dumb-ass questions from numpty's like me.) I'd also send as many people to PyconUK too - you can book here: http://pyconuk.org/ :-) It's a serious point about PyconUK - being around Pythonistas is a great way to learn in an informal and relaxed situation, find out where to get help and who to ask online as well as get the skinny on tools, libraries and other stuff that experienced developers use. It's also a learner directed educational situation which, in my experience as a teacher, is preferable to a brain-dump chalk-and-talk type affair where you start at exercise one and just keep going until the end. To be honest, having experienced several taught courses for several different languages with trainers of vastly different levels of educational awareness and aptitude I have my doubts about the efficacy of such things for getting developers up to speed. Although I realise "send him where Pythonistas congregate" is probably not management friendly advice your guy sounds like he'd flourish if prodded in the right direction rather than sat in a classroom and given exercises and whatnot to do. Hope this helps, N.

(I hope you've all booked your tickets.) To make it the resounding success that it deserves to be we need sponsorship! If you work for a Python based business why not consider one of the various options outlined here: http://pyconuk.net/SponsorShip There are levels of support for all sorts of different sized businesses. Now I realise you may be a programmer rather than someone who controls the purse strings. If that's the case, go see the person who control such purse strings and make your case! Better still, forward them these reasons for becoming a sponsor of PyconUK: * Developers who love Python love companies that support Python. If you're hiring, being able to say "we sponsor PyconUK" is an instant tick in your favour and will differentiate your company and projects from the crowd of "exciting greenfield projects for totally exciting companies in the city" that crowd the job boards. * If you're offering a technical product our delegates are likely to be your customers. * If you're using Python to deliver to a non-technical customer our delegates include the authors and maintainers of some of the software you probably use to build your product - it's a way to say thank-you and if you ever reach out to them, they're likely to be familiar with your support for PyconUK. * You work for a good company? Sponsoring PyconUK is a great way to prove it. Don't believe us? If you mention small Python development company Fry-IT to any London based Python developer they'll instantly say, "they're a great company". Do they have a problem hiring? No, and they certainly don't use job agents! Why? Because they sponsor PyconUK and the London Python Code Dojo. Ask about the education track and PyconUK delegates will say, "those Bank of America guys were great". People were so impressed by the sponsorship of Bank of America for last year's conference that they were regularly mentioned in post-conference blogs.

All 70 tickets have sold out and I'm pleased to say that we have a 3:2 ratio of girls over boys attending as a result. 3) I believe (although Peter Inglesby will be able to confirm this) that the London "chapter" of PyLadies will be attending PyconUK. 4) One of our keynote speakers is Jessica McKellar - a PSF director and well known founding member of PyLadies. Her keynote will be on the subject of diversity. 5) We already have more female delegates than ever before attending PyconUK (although we still don't have anywhere near as many as we'd like). 6) Diversity doesn't just refer to gender: with the education track we're introducing a diversity of age and background (we have 70 kids turning up on the Saturday and 40+ teachers turning up for the conference too). Of course, there's probably more that we could do but this is an entirely volunteer led affair and there's only so much time in the day. This is why having sponsorship is so important: being able to pay for someone to do things rather than having to do stuff ourselves. Sponsorship also keeps the price of the tickets down and allows us to offer reduced rates or free tickets to attendees who would otherwise not be able to afford to attend. If this commitment to diversity from PyconUK impresses your employer and they'd like to make a contribution then please do get in touch. Also, if you're hiring, you won't find a more diverse group of Pythonistas than those who attend PyconUK. Sponsorship is a great way to make a good impression (see my original email). http://pyconuk.net/SponsorShip Please feel free to quote any or all of the above to whoever holds the purse strings. As always, more than happy to answer questions. Best wishes, Nicholas. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTyPm4AAoJEP0qBPaYQbb6E8AH/2O/d4P2FpEyH2GnDvj7uCAc iHX7TQPslsssIjLL8B90PP90V7lZo5SJaX5F2MUvDBnylghy8Ax8GkRhArw1APIs z9/rhGjjiNfh7oN/7HAo0nwRUSDJls8mUemDMvk/3Liv6GNJWwVXNfqABnIr76Mu P0bFVUeZv6g9Y7PCtb+Ozfql63md0WXDepQMsy5rxi3LW4OwyLT9EjEnPg9AWWwP wzNMT9zOMMST2OKFCbOgeSqY5Iw16Y2v7S7mM/fr7JSCicNVE49yn34FOlZLN1ON tgaCXtsXjlxojd5K2hQAYu+H2HSqDHV0EbTopOvaJ14ywZgo+ewJtZJvrOUC/zo= =ke82 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From mark at qtrac.eu Tue Jul 15 08:06:20 2014 From: mark at qtrac.eu (Mark Summerfield) Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2014 07:06:20 +0100 Subject: [python-uk] Python training courses In-Reply-To: <736FD989-921C-4C00-A12A-9C181915C1F9@tibsnjoan.co.uk> References: <736FD989-921C-4C00-A12A-9C181915C1F9@tibsnjoan.co.uk> Message-ID: <20140715070620.4051f794@dino> Hi Tony, On Mon, 14 Jul 2014 20:19:13 +0100 Tony Ibbs wrote: > A colleague at work has asked me if I know of any good Python training > courses.
