From a comment on that writeup:

"Interesting, but not at all surprising based on how these languages work. But more importantly, this seems like the wrong metric. In an age of cheap hardware and fast processors, who cares about machine time? It?s programmer time (or in this case, economist time) that?s truly scarce. C++ runs fast, for example, but you have to understand pointers and the terrible standard library. Python is slower to execute, but is beautifully simple and makes it easy to understand what?s going on. It strikes me, especially if we?re trying to be scientific about it, that simplicity and comprehensibility are the more valuable traits."

^ this

I'm disappointed this didn't take into account the cost of human time, being economists. They acknowledge this in the paper but essentially say 'speed is easier to measure', ignoring power http://www.paulgraham.com/power.html

Subject: [TriZPUG] major security issue in celery
Message-ID: <CAH49X+dYYChqhURTNxudd5SsanTQe1C2A1H7uFH3r+TRUShkoQ@mail.gmail.com>

There is a serious security issue that I reported to celery recently, and I
suspect it affects several people on this list:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/celery-users/iIqBL-kZCBQ

The summary is that worker processes by default will change their umask to
0. Then if they create new files, those files will be world-writable. If
you use celery, once you verify that your workers have a sane umask, I
suggest running "find . -perm -o+w" anywhere that your app might write data
to make sure none of it is world-writable.

NOTE: the advisory suggests a workaround of specifying "--umask=16" on the
command line. This is still insecure! I notified the maintainer, and he is
going to update the advisory. He intended to write "--umask=18", which is
equivalent to octal 022.

And for anyone who is unfamiliar with how umasks work, suffice it to say,
the sane default is to not change it. Let your process inherit the umask of
the user who started it.

Reminder that the second Wednesday project night at RENCI, rescheduled 
for July to the third Wednesday due to SciPyConf, is on for tomorrow 
night at 6pm. It's likely there may be pizza.

http://tripython.org/Members/cbc/jul-14-chpn

What: Project Night
When: Wednesday, July 16, 6-9pm
Where:  Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI)
         Biltmore Conference Room, 5th Floor Europa Center
         100 Europa Drive, Suite 590, Chapel Hill
Directions: http://www.renci.org/about/locations/

Project Night in the western Triangle transitions from Carrboro to
Chapel Hill with larger facilities at RENCI. Chapel Hill Project Night
meets on second Wednesdays. Have a project you want to show off, share,
seek help with, or just get some work done surrounded by like minded
Python lovers? Join us for our monthly project night and do just that!
Don't have something to work on? Just need some help with Python? Show
up and enjoy the energy, sprint on an open source project, find
something interesting to contribute to or be inspired by! The setting is 
informal and there is no schedule, so don't worry if you show up past 
the start time. Whether you are a Python newbie needing help or have an 
open source project you want to share, come hang out and hack. Plenty of 
free after hours parking is available in the RENCI parking deck.

$95 per accepted abstract, so calibrate the quality of your work :-) Meeting will be 4-8 Jan 2015 in Phoenix.

http://annual.ametsoc.org/2015/index.cfm/programs-and-events/conferences-and-symposia/fifth-symposium-on-advances-in-modeling-and-analysis-using-python/
> Fifth Symposium on Advances in Modeling and Analysis Using Python
> Call for Papers

> The theme for the 2015 AMS Annual Meeting is ?Fulfilling the Vision of Weather, Water, and Climate Information for Every Need, Time, and Place?. People, businesses, and governments depend increasingly on weather, water, and climate information matched to their specific needs. We are converging on a day when such information is integrated into nearly every decision or action people take. This revolution in highly targeted, customized information - delivered when and where it is most useful - will make our lives safer, more productive, and more enjoyable.  The challenge for our community is this: collaborate and innovate to develop ? and ultimately deliver ? actionable, user-specific weather, water, and climate information across all spatial and temporal scales in support of our nation?s safety, health, and prosperity.  The meeting will explore the many topics required for our community to implement this vision.

> The application of high-performance computing, object-oriented programming, distributed computing, big data, and other advances in computer science to the atmospheric and oceanic sciences has in turn led to advances in modeling and analysis tools and methods. This symposium focuses on applications of the Python open-source language and seeks to disseminate advances using Python in the atmospheric and oceanic sciences, as well as grow the earth sciences Python community. Papers describing Python work in applications, methodologies, and package development in all areas of meteorology, climatology, oceanography, and space sciences are welcome, including (but not limited to): modeling, time series analysis, air quality, remote sensing applications, in-situ data analysis, GIS, Python as a software integration platform, visualization, gridding, model intercomparison, very large (terabyte) dataset manipulation and access, and learning and teaching Python. Following the overall annual meeting theme, the Symposium is also soliciting papers on advances in using Python related to delivering weather, water, and climate information.

	discount promo code
Message-ID: <CACSroP3iDvWcRHySZYbQ0m0bgR+qVVDGRb5d0CBhuj7-2OLv1w@mail.gmail.com>

Hey folks, recently on LinkedIn, I somehow met Dan Spuller, organizer of
Cryptolina which is coming soon to the Raleigh Convention Center. I became
a media partner via the Triangle Career Development Newsletter, which I
have been publishing for nearly a year now. Dan gave me a 15% off discount
code to share with my newsletter subscribers and any local groups I am
associated with.

He also gave me a gratis booth! I will be promoting subscriptions to my
newsletter, but also would like to promote awareness of BarCampRDU and some
of the local groups. So if anyone has any swag or informational fliers to
hand out, let me know.

Also, anyone who would like to speak at the event, let me know. They can
still fit a couple more.

=====================
Here is the code from Dan:
"Jeremy, as we discussed earlier, we have created a Promo Code for your
readers:
The Code is: TCDN2014

This will give 15% off the standard admission price."

=====================

Message-ID: <etPan.53c97b14.2ed6a64.3f0@localhost>

Hey all. Triangle Startup Weekend was just cancelled and a bunch of us who were signed up to participate want to socially hack this weekend anyway, so we?re putting together an impromptu hack-crawl for Saturday and Sunday. If you want to hack, you?re invited. All are welcome:

Raleigh-Durham Hack Crawl 2014
July 19th - 20th, 2014

An impromptu hack-a-thon style weekend laced with beer and prizes.

Every few hours we move to a new location. Show up alone or in a team, for some or all of the weekend. The closer it is to the morning, the more work we do. The closer it is to the evening, the more drinking we do.

You can sign up, or get more details here: http://hack.testive.com

Enjoy :)

Reminder: meeting Thursday.

I need a favor. I'm at PyOhio PyCamp. I need someone to volunteer to 
emcee the meeting. That is:

1. Call Caktus the day before the meeting to ensure someone will be 
there to let us in.
2. Start the meeting at 7pm
3. Put tripython.org up on the projector screen
4. Go through the bullet points on the front page:
    a. When and where are meetings
    b. When and where are project nights
    c. Where the maililng list is.
    d. Where the IRC channel is
    e. The various other talking points until it starts to take up too 
much time
    f. Declare an after meeting at Milltown
5. Do round robin introductions:
    a. Your name
    b. Institutional/Occupational affiliation
    c. What you do with Python
6. Introduce the speaker (BTW, Elliot is sending a proxy speaker from 
Trinket.io)
7. Thank speaker/take questions/Thank speaker again
8. Call for lightning talks
9. Usher crowd to Milltown so Caktus can lock up

Can someobody speak up to help a brother out? You know who you are. 
You've been to a bunch of meetings and seen the spiel too many times. 
You know the formula by heart and you won't skip over on skimp on it. 
You'll be direct in providing direction. Call shotgun.

Will this meeting be recorded, or possibly shared by Google Hangouts or
other such app?

I had planned to attend, but don't know if I will be able to make the drive
this month from Fayetteville.

Thanks, Eric! And thanks Jeff for confirming Calvin will be there to 
open the facilities. Y'all have fun. We're having fun this week at

Naturally, once I arrive, it anyone at Caktus, Calvin for instance,  wants
to facilitate the meeting , I will defer to them. (I plan to praise them
loquaciously to the extent of my capacity for hyperbole, etc. etc.    just
sayin)
