Hi folks!

WANT TO SEE CODE & COFFEE IN RICHMOND?

Code & Coffee is partnering with Richmond Public Library to run a Code & Coffee Pop Up! Swing by to connect with devs in the Richmond tech community. Check out the library’s new digital makerspace equipped with 3D printers, flatbed scanners, and equipment to digitize old records, VHS, and cassette tapes. Drink coffee and work on your side projects in the library’s new creative flex space!

WANT TO HEAR A TALK ABOUT A THING?

Include #lattetopics in a tweet to @codecoffeeyvr (https://twitter.com/codecoffeeyvr) with talk requests & talk ideas. We'll share it with the community and some speakers will hopefully pick them up!

SCHEDULE:

7:00pm: Drink coffee and mingle!

7:15pm: Short Talks:

Dethe (@dethe (https://twitter.com/dethe)) – Full Featured Websites without Writing JavaScript

Learn techniques for implementing powerful, dynamic, custom websites and apps without writing a line of JavaScript or requiring any preprocessors, compilers, or servers.

Rob (@8bitrpg (https://twitter.com/8bitrpg)) – Random == Unfair

What can a quick naive dive into randomness tell us about society or perhaps even some fundamental properties to our shared existence? Can these insanely complex philosophical, scientific and mathematical abstractions be explained in 10 minutes or less using some cheaply written code originally created to place blocks in a game? I'll explore some curious features of contiguous random distributions (moving stuff around randomly) in non-localized, linear and two-dimensional spaces using both closed and open topologies (dots, dots on a line, dots on a map... maps that end, maps that fold).

Afsha (@_____AS_AS_____ (https://twitter.com/_____AS_AS_____)) – Automating with C# (Excel example)

This talk will walk through how to start with automation using Excel. Demonstration will showcase the use of APIs, breakdown of problems, and deployment of a custom Excel application. This simple method can be applied to future custom C# applications.

8:00pm: Work/discussion period (for technology passion projects)

9:00pm: Thank you everyone!

Our talks are quick 10-15 minute presentations. We welcome speaker submissions from developers of any experience level. We require that speaker topics fall within the technology realm (ie. this is not the place to pitch a business idea). If you would like to speak at a future event, please send us a message or talk to us at one of the events. Check out our speaker's package here: http://github.com/Code-and-Coffee-YVR/Speaker-Package

MUST HAVE: A positive attitude and zero tolerance for stereotypes. See our Code of Conduct (https://www.meetup.com/Code-Coffee-Vancouver/pages/19153519/Code_of_Conduct/).
