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

Meet us at Gangplank to learn about using different queueing systems with
Python. The line up is not complete yet and we are calling for more
presenters, but it might go something like this:
RQ (Redis Queue) - Austin
NSQ - Trevor
Beanstalk - Sarah
Celery/RabbitMQ - Jason G.
Walk ons accepted!

What
Trevor will share the best kept secrets of the Python Standard Library by
talking about modules that are often overlooked but should not be. Also, Ian
will delight men, women, and children alike with a lightning talk so
tantalizing that I can't even dare to tell you in advance! (Honestly, I have
no idea what Ian will talk about, but I have no doubts it will be interesting.)

Tim will lead a brief discussion of PyPy, a Python interpreter implemented in
Python, followed by a longer discussion of the RPython toolchain which makes
this implementation not only possible, but faster than the standard C-Python
interpreter. The discussion of RPython will be illustrated using a simple
interpreter implemented in Python, which is then translated to native code
using the RPython toolchain.
Also, there will be Mandelbrot sets.
Who
Tim has been using Python since way back at Python 0.9.3. He uses Python
primarily to process and display numerical data and is very interested in
ways of coaxing as much performance as possible from Python and its various
numerical extensions.

We had another great meeting in September that I didn't have a chance to
announce on this website. Dr. Sarah Braden gave an introductory talk on
Machine Learning with Python.
We had a great turn out which included at least a half dozen new members.
Erik shared a relevant link to the
scikit-learn algorithm cheat-sheet
on the DesertPy Sub-Reddit.
Also, I'd like to thank Isos Technology for
being such a generous host again.
Refresh this webpage constantly for news of the upcoming October meeting, which
should be on October 22nd in Chandler. Don't miss it!
Exploring Numpy - Austin will introduce NumPy,
the Python numerical array library that sits at the heart of most of
Python's numerical and scientific tools.

This month's meeting format was a series of lightning talks. We
restricted the talks to a hard limit of 5 minutes, which was a
challenge for some of us. Here is a quick recap with some reference
links.
Jason took us from the basics of the MRO to some more complicated
examples. He was about to divulge how to hack the MRO at run-time
before the 5-minute horn stopped him short.
Python logging for web applications
I tried my best to walk through my IPython Notebook
demonstrating how you can use Python's logging module and
ElasticSearch & Kibana to instrument & analyze your web
applications.
Jerry walked us through his MongoDB driven web application that tracks the
movies and books he and his wife own. This served as a good example of using
MongoDB with Python.
Lastly, Jason accepted the challenge of giving an unfinished presentation on
Python Deocrators.
This presentation was started by Austin and Jason had never seen it before
and did an exceptional job talking about it sight unseen.
NOTE Austin added the last two bullet point's here, for completion sake.
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!

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.
