Hi all! We are looking to build a community here, so if you interest is just to get into coding, please come along and we can help out - all levels and interests are more than welcome. All levels of coding are welcome! We can continue doing some basic coding using HTML, CSS, and maybe some JS if we are feeling up to it (I'll teach if people are interested). Usually there will be some people around to help anyone with issues. We are also holding these sessions for anyone to come along and ask questions about the course. We know it's a big decision and a lot of money, and we are keen to give you as much information as you need to make the right call. https://liskov.dev We are offering some more structured content for anyone interested: ### CV advice Are you currently applying for jobs? Come along to get some advice on: * Resume * Cover letters * Portfolio * Code challenges * Interviews ### Build and deploy your first webpage I What is HTML and how does it work? In this session we’ll: * Install a code editor * Generate an HTML document * Learn how the browser understands markup * Add some content and styling * Deploy your basic webpage to the world! (Deploy is via drag and drop to Netlify) ### Build and deploy your first webpage II Coming in future weeks. Depends on the progress we make. ### Bootcamp info session Thinking about doing Liskov bootcamp? Come along to meet Matt and get all your questions answered. ### Q and A with a former student Meet a former student now working as a developer. Ask them anything! If we get a few starters we'll get a few ex-students along for a chat. ### Types of career paths/jobs in the IT industry For people who are thinking of changing careers or moving to an adjacent/related role in IT. Apparently there are event people who use UX design as a stepping stone to a programming career (seems like a long and windy road though). These will occur at least once a fortnight, so if you miss one you can get to the next one - the schedule will be updated on the site, and here. Here's a list of some of the activities that we could play around with if there are a few people there (will depending on timing and attendance): * Basics of getting into coding (Beginners HTML, CSS, JS) * Coding in [Rooms.xyz](http://rooms.xyz/) * Q and A * BYO issues (we solve their problems if we can) * Build a webpage in quick time * Notion tutorial * SpaceTeam * What are the jobs and industries that these courses lead to (with examples)? Come and have a chat! The Liskov Team

The Monthly Pinoy Social is a meet-up held every month in the city. From 7 to 9.30 pm, it is an opportunity to meet other pinoys and enjoy a chat and drinks. The Asian Beer Cafe is at Melbourne Central so it is very easy to get to by train. Dinners cost between $10 to $20. Some attendees eat and some don't. Drinks are cheap compared to other venues in the city area and everyone is responsible for buying own food and drinks. Afterwards some go home and some go out for dinner. As we are in the city, there are many places to go out afterwards. Kita-kits!

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

One of the most valuable parts of this community is the opportunity to think out loud with other product professionals. This session is built for exactly that. As we wrap up the quarter, it’s a great time to pause and reflect. What’s on track? What needs adjustment? Where could a small shift create bigger impact? Join fellow product professionals for a focused, interactive conversation designed to help you recalibrate for the next quarter. You’ll have the opportunity to share where you are, hear how others are thinking through similar challenges, and gain fresh perspective you can bring back to your team and organization. We’ll gather at 8:00AM, with discussion starting promptly at 8:15AM. 📍 First Watch - 7227 N High St Located in: The Shops at Worthington Ample parking is available. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Start your morning with clarity and connection — we hope to see you there! ☀️

Drake Lundstrom is presenting: Code Anywhere by Talking to your Phone Abstract: Have you heard the trend of people deploying code anywhere from checkout lines to doctors' offices? In this talk, you will learn how to talk to your phone and have an app on Azure to show your friend 5 minutes later. The basic DevOps tools you already know, plus a little bit of AI magic, are all you need! If you want to follow along, the demo will be in Azure with GitHub Actions and GitHub Copilot, and you can have it set up on your phone by the end of the session. Just come in with an Azure account and a GitHub repo. Join us for pizza, drinks, and networking @ Improving's office. Doors open at 5:45.
