Glen, thank you for the kind words. It's been my pleasure to be a part of
the Python/BayPiggies community these past months.

The idea Glen mentioned is to use Google Hangouts on
Air<http://socialmediaweek.org/files/2013/01/Hangouts-On-Air-Guide_v3.pdf>to
start broadcasting our monthly talks live. There would be two cameras,
and the main video feed could toggle back and forth depending on what is
happening (this is supported with the production controls of Google
Hangouts on Air).

Camera #1 would be a screen share from the speakers laptop. This would
allow viewers to see the slides a lot better than when we have a camera
pointed at the projector screen.

Camera #2 would be a video camera or webcam tracking the speaker. If they
like to talk with there hands or point at things on the projector screen
(like Alex Martelli <http://youtu.be/GcdcLoEJleI?t=11m30s>) it would be
nice to capture that.

Most of the 1hr+ video feed would be dedicated to viewing the presenter's
screen share, because that's what the content usually revolves around, but
it would be nice to occasionally cut to the camera trained on the speaker
so the viewer can see who is talking.

It would be really exciting to do this for Guido's talk on January
23rd<http://www.meetup.com/silicon-valley-python/events/138635282/>.
Here's what I'd need to make that happen:

   1. Two wired ethernet connections in the LinkedIn conference room (one
   for my laptop and one for Guido's). This is crucial, for the sake of having
   the highest data transfer rate possible. Google strongly recommends against
   doing a hangout on air over wifi.
   2. A dry run of a hangout on air with Guido (preferably at least one
   week prior) to make sure our laptops have the right software and are ready
   to broadcast.

>From past emails, I believe Rachel is our contact at LinkedIn. Rachel, do
you think we could use two ethernet ports in the conference room we'll have
for our meeting on January 23rd?

If someone can put me in touch with Guido (and ask him if he is willing to
participate in this way), I can arrange a time for a dry run.

Let me know your thoughts and/or suggestions. And thanks to Glen and Rajesh
for helping to inspire this idea and test it
out<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xE10T4Vz3Ig>
.

Happy new years eve, here's to a cheerful and Pythonic 2014!

-James

Ethernet might be hard to do, but I can certainly check. Remind me early next week when I'm back at work? I'm happy to meet up and help you do a dry run if you like.

Thanks, Rachel. I'll write you this Monday to follow up about the Ethernet
and doing a dry run on site.

Thanks for the tip, Don. I'll reach out to them and ask about how they live
stream.

It looks like pyvideo.org (where chipy's videos are hosted) is built in
part using Miro Community <http://www.mirocommunity.org/> an open source
framework for building a video sharing website.

Howdy,

For those of you who weren't aware, one of the spam-prevention measures
on BayPIGgies is a moderation hold on messages with five or more
addresses on the To: or Cc: lines.  That causes a delay until a list
admin releases the message.  If you want faster posting, delete the
extra Cc's.

Yes-Great article- even after reading the entire docs on multiprocessing at
Python.org,
I somehow overlooked the dummy module.


It's too bad they didn't name "dummy" something more appropriate though.

Message-ID: <CA+UBrj7tM-+Adj5H6Kk4tY33Me9Tu+KcX-ggU56XCUFpYNj9rg@mail.gmail.com>

Make a resolution -- improve your Python skills.

Organize a room? Drive to the location? Set-up the projector? That's *so*
2013.

It's 2014!! Join us online to either learn or teach more Python. This is a
free event where we get together and review materials to learn the Python
Programming Language (http://www.python.org/).

We will use Google Hangouts on Air so that anyone can watch (either live or
at a later time) and many can join-in.

Want to see an sample? Go to this video

(but fast-forward in 9:00 min from the front of the video -- we had a rough
start and didn't get started for 9 minutes):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xE10T4Vz3Ig&feature=youtu.be



Excited?  Join us online at this link on Saturday, 4-Jan (1:30pm PST):

https://plus.google.com/events/c26naiea787d93e8ra557qgaroc




Want to be kept updated? Want a reminder? Want to participate (and not just
watch passively)?

If you want to participate (by asking questions, etc.), send an email to
this address:

hangouts at glenjarvis.com


We're still struggling with the set-up, so please be patient if we have
another rough start (which is likely).


Cheers,


Glen

Definitely interesting, but the discussion of this article on Reddit gives
further food for thought on the pros and cons of using this strategy:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/1tyzw3/parallelism_in_one_line/

Note that the article's author is participating in that discussion.

A related thread (also with some discussion by the author) can be found here:

Apart from its unavailability in Python 2, it would seem that the
Executor abstraction (PEP 3148, concurrent.futures.Executor -- there's
a thread and a multiprocessing variant) does the same thing and is
just as easy to use. Isn't it?
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3148/#executor

It's probably even been backported to Python 2 by some kind soul. :-)

Indeed: that's the point made in the first Reddit thread I referenced (via
ThreadPoolExecutor)... which the blog author agreed with in his reply. And
it's been backported to 2.x, though the backport appears to have some bugs
WRT exception handling.

Our next talk is going to have a very large attendance. We've outgrown our room at LinkedIn.

But, because they're so cool, they got us a bigger room (and food again :)

The new room is:

Thank you, Rachel, for making this happen.

Subject: [Baypiggies] LUGs at SCALE
Message-ID: <1389810310.2714.266.camel@jim-LAPTOP>


Regarding 
Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE) 
Friday, February 21, through Sunday, February 23 
Hilton Los Angeles Airport hotel 
https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale12x 

There is a good chance that SCALE 12X will support a general LUG
table/booth. 

This depends on sufficient interest among the LUG community to staff the
table/booth. I've taken on the responsibility for querying the greater
SF bay area LUGs. The organizers say there is some interest from
Southern California LUGs. 

The most important thing, assuming there will be such a booth, is that
it has printed, take-away information about LUGs as well as someone at
the table. I'm hoping we'll have a map showing locations of northern
California LUGs and a companion list of LUG web sites. 

If you are planning to attend SCALE, please let me know if 
* you are willing to help staff a LUG booth (this entails 
  being there for a couplel of hours at a time and maybe 
  smiling and waving, perhaps explaining what LUGs are 
  about or, more likely, what your LUG is about. In Linux 
  World expos there was a regular stream of people with 
  interesting comments and queries. Hopefully we'll have 
  several people who can take short shifts. 
* you can provide printed information about your LUG that 
  someone can take down for the table/booth (I can drive 
  things down there). 
* you can suggest contacting some LUG or Linux-related 
  group that is not on the list of groups to which I'm 
  sending this email (see below). 

I'm hoping to be able to reply "yay" or "nay" to the SCALE organizers by
the end of this week. 

Hopefully, wtih thanks, 
jim (member of SF-LUG and BALUG)

    I'm hoping someone in your group can send me information 
that I can use at SCALE (Southern California Linux Expo) 
on the weekend of February 21, 22, 23. 
    I plan on making an info sheet (or map) for all 
northern California LUGs. 

* Where do you hold your meetings (address, any other 
info about access)? 

* When do you hold your meetings (probably a particular 
day of the month, e.g. third Tuesday), include day 
and also time? 

* What's the format of your meetings (regular speaker 
or meet and greet or support for users or all of 
the above or ...)? 

* Do your group have a web site? If so, please 
provide the URL. 

* Are you interested in getting speakers for your 
meetings? 

    If you know of any LUGs not on the list below, 
please send me contact info. 

    If you are going to SCALE, there definitely 
will be a LUG booth and it will definitely need 
people to staff it and anyone staffing the booth 
(put in a couple of hours at least one day) can 
get an exhibitor's pass. Let me know, please, so 
I can add your name and coordinate hours.

Jim,
   I'll jump in. Others can correct me where I'm wrong.

We have had different hosts during the years However, currently, LinkedIn
has been giving us space. The details are:

2061 Stierlin Ct, Mountain View, CA

>

Except for November and December (due to the holidays), we hold our
meetings the fourth Thursday at every month starting at 7:30 pm.  There
will be a meeting the Thursday after you give this to SCALE.


> * What's the format of your meetings (regular speaker

7:30 - 7:35 We begin with an introduction/warm up for five minutes as
people filter into the space
7:35 - 8:45 We have a guest speaker for the evening (the end time of the
speaker often fluctuates and we adjust accordingly)
8:45 - 8:50 Announcements (Who's looking for work?; Who's looking to hire?;
Who has a question?; Who has an answer?)
8:50 - 9:00 Random access (socializing/Q&A, etc.)

We do:

http://baypiggies.net/

Although we have speakers arranged up until June, who isn't interested in a
pool of speakers to choose from?!?  We'll always take your introductions :).

    If you know of any LUGs not on the list below,

BayPIGgies is a Python Interest Group (Bay Area Python Interest Group), and
not really a LUG -- although there is a great deal of overlap. Our only
request is that it is actually Python related.

We have over 300 people signed up to go to Guido's talk on "Tulip and
Asynchronous I/O for Python 3". Linked in has gotten us a huge room. And, a
lot of Linked In People are also super interested. It's getting crowded :)

LinkedIn will have a badge table and I want all of you to be able to get in
since it is your group and your talk :)

So, I have a favor. To make certain there's no hiccup getting into the
space, can you do me a favor, please? Would you choose one of these two
actions, please:

(YOU ONLY NEED TO CHOOSE ONE)

1) (Easiest for me): Sign up at Silicon Valley Python MeetUp for this event
so we have a list of names of who will be attending. If you are already
RSVPd YES to this event, do nothing :)

http://www.meetup.com/silicon-valley-python/events/138635282/



2) Send an email to glen at glenjarvis.com with this subject "GUIDO'S TALK".
I'll be sure to compile a list and keep a headcount so that you can get
entrance. You don't need to do this option if you already successfully did
1 above.

This option is for those who don't have a MeetUp account and who don't want
to create an account at MeetUp (BayPIGgies was around years before MeetUp,
so why change this now).

Also, if the name on your email address isn't something you want on your
name tag, please include the name to put on the name tag. (example:
bad_ass_programmer at gmail.com could be "Joe Smith" but I wouldn't know if
you didn't say in your email).



I look forward to seeing everyone there. Please remember that we're in
another building for this talk (since we need more space):

Building 2025/Room Unite


Cheers,


Glen

Message-ID: <CAObTp14BQgEjtguOwykWPMaKvKa7cDJxmYg5=fw7SrNghai3wQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hey everyone,

I've setup a Google Hangout on Air for Guido's talk at LinkedIn. It will be
interesting to see how the audio/video quality turns out. I'm hoping we can
use this setup to live broadcast our future talks. The Hangout on Air will
be viewable here: http://nicholsonjf.com/blog/guido-on-tulip

Also, as most of you know, LinkedIn has loaned us their AV team. They'll be
hosting a live broadcast here: http://www.ustream.tv/linkedin-events

I'll also be recording the talk with our usual camcorder and posting
to the BayPiggies
YouTube channel <http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBJV1sd5XcVhijm13pWfBCg> a
couple days after :-)

See you there!

May I express my appreciation for that? I live in the Amsterdam timezone, and 19:30 Silicon Valley time is 04:30 Amsterdam time, a bit late! So I'm looking forward to watching your video later on YouTube. Will you be posting the URL on the list when it's available?

Greetings,

Hopefully this isn't news to anyone, but if you're going to PyCon this
year and you don't yet have a passport, GET ONE NOW.

Of course, I never turn down appreciation :-) I'm glad we can stay in touch
with our BayPiggies overseas!

I always send an email to the group with the link to the video once it's
up. You can also subscribe to the BayPiggies YouTube
channel<http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBJV1sd5XcVhijm13pWfBCg>to
receive a notification anytime we post a new video. Thanks for
watching!

Anyone can go, JJ. But, LinkedIn will have a badge table. Come on down!! I'll be sure to get you a badge on the badge table.
