Monsoon season is upon us so join DesertPy this month for a Thunderstorm! What
is a Thunderstorm you ask? It's a meeting consisting only of lightning
talks!
When
Wednesday June 23rd, 2014 at 6:30PM
Where
Isos Technology - 1130 E University Drive, #101, Tempe, AZ 85281
The Isos offices can be found on the south west side of the western building
in the complex. The building has 1130 in giant numbers on it. Look for a
sign on the door as we may have to let you in. Enter through the door shown
on the image below.
What
There won't be one big talk, but a bunch of smaller, fast paced talks on any
number of Python related topics. Just show up for the fun. Better yet, show
up with a python related lightning talk of your own. We will try to enforce a
5 minute limit per talk. More than one talk per person permitted.
Recommendations:
If you use slides (which is recommended), do them in the IPython Notebook
or export to a PDF.
Provide slides to me godber@gmail.com prior to the meeting to minimize
laptop switching.
Make a comment on the Meetup event announcement that contains your topic,
or topics, so we can avoid (minimize) duplication.
These are recommendations and not requirements. Don't let anything above
discourage you from presenting.

Meeting time is rolling around again. For those of you braving the heat in
town, join us out at the HiringSolved offices at Gangplank for the June
DesertPy meeting.
Join DesertPy this month, back in Tempe, where Trevor will introduce the
lightweight web framework, Flask. Flask is a
BSD licensed micro framework that uses Jinja2
for templating but allows you to choose the persistence layer.
Sarah will continue our PEP talk series by telling us about PEP 450 which is
implemented in Python 3.4 as the statistics module.

I try to get "The Pit" which is the room just down this hallway (to the left of
the stairs) and down a few steps. Or just ask the hostess or waitress for the
Python group. And yeah, that is google maps working inside Boulders on
Broadway.
Spring is upon us and change is in the air for DesertPy. First off, we are
going to have monthly presentation based meetings for the rest of this year.
These meetings will be on the same day of the month as usual, the fourth
Wednesday. Tentatively the locations will be alternating between Gangplank in
downtown Chander and the Isos Technologies office
in Tempe (just East of Rural and University behind Chompies). Our first visit
to Isos will be next week, March 26th, when I will wow you all with a
demonstration of how I use IPython, mostly for data
analysis purposes. Please RSVP on the Meetup event page.
What does that mean for our alternate month social gatherings at Boulders on
Broadway? Well, we will have them
occasionally, most likely on the second Wednesday of the month. The next one
is already scheduled for April 9th. I hope to see you all there. Well, not
all at once of course ☺, our usual table only seats about 15.
Lastly, Python 3.4.0 was
released this week. In an effort to get us all up to speed, we are happy to
announce that at each meeting for the rest of the year someone will give a
lightning talk on one of the PEP's implemented by this release. By the way,
that lucky 'someone' could be YOU! As always we are looking for community
members to help give presentations, please contact me (Austin Godber,
godber@gmail.com) if you are interested in giving a presentation.
