Making a Difference with HTTP

Feb 12, 2014 · 6:00 PM
Factory Design Labs

This month, we've invited two excellent speakers to educate us on accessibility and HTTP. Andrew Jaswa (twitter, github, website) will discuss improving accessibility on the web. With over 10 million Americans with disabilities, he'll talk about how you can make a difference in their lives by building accessible websites. Fred Jean (twitter, github, website) will dive into HTTP, discussing why HTTP is an omnipresent, critical and misunderstood protocol. He'll cover its history and current state, the anatomy of requests and responses, and some great tools for debugging. Status Cats will be had.

Delicious food and craft beers, as usual.

Schedule:

6:00 - Doors open
6:30 - Making a Difference in Someone's Life - Andrew Jaswa
7:00 - Discussion and coding
7:30 - Parlez-Vous HTTP? - Fred Jean
9:00 - Doors close

Enter the building along Fillmore St and take the elevator to the 4th floor.

Hey Stackers! Wanted to make you all aware of an upcoming event called Go Code Colorado, put on by the Colorado Secretary of State in March...

Go Code Colorado is an apps challenge designed to make public data more accessible and user-friendly. Teams of developers and entrepreneurs across the state will compete to solve business problems and grow our economy, by building apps that will help Colorado companies thrive. The Challenge starts in five locations across the state-- Boulder, Colorado Springs, Durango, Ft. Collins and Grand Junction -- and continues with a Mentor Checkin and a Finalist Competition in Denver. A stipend will cover all finalists’ travel expenses to Denver for the Mentor Checkin and Finalist Competition. The three finalist apps judged to be the best will take home $25,000, $15,000 or $10,000 in incentives on May 9th. To sign-up and get involved go to: gocode.colorado.gov

I'll be at the event too, so feel free to come find me if you have any questions!

Sorry to have to decline, but I'll be out of town on this date. Sounds like some great content, though!

Mozilla - At Mozilla, we’re a global community of technologists, thinkers and builders working together so people worldwide can be informed contributors and creators of the Web. Our mission is to ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all, where individuals can shape their own experience and are empowered, safe and independent.

Velocity Conference - Modern systems pose a number of thorny challenges: they are inherently complex, span multiple technologies, groups, and sometimes different organizations altogether. Most poignantly, they fail in the most unexpected and spectacular ways. The O'Reilly Velocity Conference is the best place on the planet for web ops and systems engineering professionals to learn from peers, exchange ideas with experts, and share best practices and lessons learned for handling modern systems and applications. Happening June 19–22, 2017 in San Jose, CA. Registration is now open and you can save 20% with code: PCFSDEN20.

DinosaurJS - DinosaurJS is an annual, community-driven, JavaScript and Open Web Conference in Denver, Colorado.

Full Stack Code of Conduct

Summary Harassment in code and discussion or violation of physical boundaries is completely unacceptable anywhere in Full Stack meetups, project codebases, issue trackers, chatrooms, mailing lists, and other events. Violators will be warned by the group organizers. Repeat violations will result in being blocked or banned by the organizers at or before the 3rd violation.

In detail Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images, deliberate intimidation, stalking, sustained disruption, and unwelcome sexual attention.

Individuals asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

Organizers are also subject to the anti-harassment policy.

If anyone engages in harassing behavior, including organizers, we may take appropriate action, up to and including warning the offender, deletion of comments, removal from the meetup and meetup's codebases, and escalation to Meetup support.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact an organizer of the group immediately.

We expect everyone to follow these rules anywhere in Full Stack venues, project codebases, issue trackers, chatrooms, and mailing lists.

Finally, don't forget that it is human to make mistakes! We all do. Let’s work together to help each other, resolve issues, and learn from the mistakes that we will all inevitably make from time to time.
