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)?

Standing on Bourke Street for close to a century, Florentino has long been part of Melbourne’s dining life. It is a new era at Florentino with the team behind Nomad and Reine & La Rue now at the helm. To quote the website: ‘Long-time guests will recognise the dining room they know; new guests will encounter a restaurant shaped by memory, but firmly grounded in today. The new Florentino Dining Room menus draw on the room’s grand, old-world tradition, with thoughtful refinements made for dining now.’ Sounds good, right? I booked for 6 Fine Diners to enjoy the Menu Essenza at $200 per person for dinner from 6.30pm on Saturday 30 May. You can view the menu here: https://florentino.melbourne/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Florentino-Dining-Room-Menus-17022026.pdf

Please join us this Sunday to discuss truth and the pragmatism tradition. We will meet at the Captain Melville at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp. The pragmatism tradition is a philosophical tradition originating in 1870s America that evaluates ideas, theories, and beliefs based on their practical consequences and real-world usefulness. It asserts that truth is not absolute but is an evolving tool for problem-solving, continuous adaptation, and effective action. Key thinkers involved include Pierce, James, Dewey, Rorty and Putnam. **Please note the new $5 mandatory donation entry fee** (cash or transfer on day) to help with MeetUp subscription costs, venue costs, etc. There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo, in the spirit of learning and friendly debate, so please feel free to challenge assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions challenged. This event is also posted to the Philosophy Circle group. Topic questions below, however please note these are open sessions not strict to the below: * 1\. When you say something is "true\," what are you actually claiming about it? 2\. How do you decide whether something is true — in practice\, not in theory? 3\. Could a belief be true if it made no difference to anything — nothing you'd ever see\, do\, or expect? 4\. Is a useful belief that turns out to be false worth less than a true belief that's completely useless? 5\. Is there any difference between "true" and "what everyone would end up agreeing on if we investigated as thoroughly as humanly possible"? 6\. When science tells us something is true\, is it uncovering the world as it really is — or building tools that work well enough for now? 7\. Can any description of the world be completely neutral — free of all judgment about what matters? 8\. If most of your deepest beliefs are products of where and when you happened to be born\, does that make them less trustworthy? Hope to see you there!
