Ok since we've reached out beyond the loop but still within walking distance, I'd like to nominate Caf? ciao on Madison. They cater to both coffee and beer, have free wifi, and would be open to hosting events. Short 15min walk from loop or take the #20 madison bus.

Last night I offered to give a presentation on GPU programming with
CUDA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA) and some degree of Python at
the July meeting. I'd like to make sure we don't have anything else
planned and that people are interested so I can start putting together
the presentation.

Background:

The latest generation of GPUs (video cards) from Nvidia can perform
close to 1 teraFLOP. By comparison the latest Intel CPUs can achieve
around 70 gigaFLOPS. Learning how to take advantage of the power the
GPU can deliver speed-ups of up to 100x to certain applications in the
fields of audio/video encoding, computer vision, computational
finance, computational biology, physics simulations, etc.

Ah, security by obscurity .. those wimps.  I won't feel secure until a
few apps get hacked, a few people lose their credit cards, and
subsequently, the whole platform is rewritten.

There has been a recent change such that if you reply to a message by
just typing in the text area (as opposed to clicking reply/reply-all) the
new DEFAULT behavior is to REPLY-ALL.

Until recently typing in the text region generated a reply to the sender
only.  I discovered this change the hard (embarrassing) way.  Consider
yourselves warned.

The same thing happened to me, I sent 200 people an email. The message was
not bad, but, it just goes to show how careful you have to be these days.

Hey everyone  - just joined the list.   Moved to Chicago in February.  
The front page of the site shows the June meeting as the next.  Is there
another one scheduled soon?

Thanks,

Hi Dave -- welcome!


So, ChiPy is, as I've said before, pretty much an example of just-in- 
time compiling for a social group.   Predictably, meetings are always  
the 2nd Thursday,  as Carl pointed out.  It's not unusual for there to  
be little discussion of it until the week before -- so, yeah, right  
around now =).  Don't mistake that seat-of-the pants attitude for a  
lack of interest.  ChiPy consistently has good numbers and everyone's  
awesome.

Hi all:

So far this is what I know about July:

Chipy's July Meeting will be our best ever.

Location: DePaul CTI 243 S Wabash Ave.

Date: Thursday, July 10th, ~7pm

Topics:

* GPU programming with CUDA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA) and  
some degree of Python -- Cosmin Stejerean
* ________ <- insert your Python related presentation here
* ________ ....

I have updated the wiki http://chipy.org/.

Massimo, Do we have a room number yet? Do you have a projector?

I would like to schedule a 15 minute organizer's meeting after the  
main meeting and before we go to the bar. All are welcome to attend.  
We will be voting on use of Meetup and possibly one other issue. If  
you can not be there but you consider yourself an organizer, proxy  
with me before the meeting.

Your JIT Compiler,

Brian Ray

It doesn't appear to be that way for me anymore, although it was at one
point on Friday. When replying to this, it used regular reply.

Massimo,

General comment - http://web2py.appspot.com/index/politics is Very Nice.

A couple of little items: In my view clicking on a link should open a
new window, not take you off the site in the same window.  The text
boxes for entering the URL and the Title are rather short.  You can
delete an article that you submitted but I don't see a way for the
submitter to edit the title (for instance if you catch a misspelling
after posting).  You have a disclaimer about not being responsible for
the public's postings.  Does the admin interface have a function to
allow the site owner to modify or delete inappropriate or spam posts?
I would assume it does. The "report" link doesn't appear to do
anything but refresh the screen.  A 'Thank you for your report'
message or pop-up would be reassuring.

A great new drop-in for Web2Py.

Phil

This sounds quite interesting to me too.  Cosmin, have you played with
PyCUDA (http://mathema.tician.de/software/pycuda) yet?  Its docs
promise great things but I haven't had any time to get it working yet.

Phil:

Would you be interested in doing something short on PyCUDA? Like a 10  
minute lighting talk?

Automatically opening a new window when a user clicks a link is rarely
a good idea (exceptions are ajax heavy apps like gmail or google
reader). For example most users expect the back button to work, and
this breaks when you open a new window. See

BTW.... we have tested web2py on iPhone+sqlite and pc+mssql and it  
works!
So now you can run the same identical apps on GAE on those systems too.

PyCUDA is what I will use for the presentation. I didn't want to
commit to PyCUDA at the time I made the announcement as it wasn't yet
working on OS X. Since then I worked with Andreas and Gert to make
PyCUDA compatible with OS X (and specifically CUDA 1.1, since 2.0 is
not yet available for OS X).

Hey
guys, I just created the Chicago Python Users Group group on Facebook.
Feel free to join.? I noticed that Facebook Groups does have some
similar features to Meetup, and it's free, so I figured, why not? Maybe
it will attract some more student-type people to our meetings.

I
still think we should go ahead and create the Meetup group. In the
long-term, we can set up a script that updates both Facebook, Meetup,
and Google Calendar from one source.

Careful Feihong, I heard that Facebook costs something like, $119 / month.

Guys!  It's an inside joke between me and Feihong!  Thanks for being here!

I really think what your suggesting here along the lines of a script  
is key. We must always think about a way to keep these things in sync  
and update-able quickly.

btw, I noticed an outdated ChiPy Google Calendar, but was unable to  
locate the owner to have it removed.

PS. I still owe everyone the minutes from our organizer meeting.

I think that might be mine ... but there might be more than one.  I
can remove it if you think that is most beneficial.  Here's the link I
managed to get by sending myself an invite:

Subject: [Chicago] BootCampArama Final Reminder
Message-ID: <C63475F3-FC23-450B-A7E4-6E5707197028@unc.edu>

Final reminder, we're in the last two weeks of open registration for  
PyCamp, Plone Boot Camp, and Advanced Plone Boot Camp:

http://trizpug.org/boot-camp/2008/

Registration is now open for:

PyCamp: Python Boot Camp, August 4 - 8

Plone Boot Camp: Customizing Plone, July 28 - August 1

Advanced Plone Boot Camp: Plone 3 Techniques, August 4 - 7

All of these take place on the campus of the University of North  
Carolina at Chapel Hill in state of the art high tech classrooms, with  
free mass transit, low-cost accommodations with free wireless, and  
convenient dining options.

Plone Boot Camp is taught by Joel Burton, twice chair of the Plone  
Foundation. Joel has logged more the 200 days at the head of Plone  
classrooms on four continents. See plonebootcamps.com for dozens of  
testimonials from Joel's students.

PyCamp is taught by Chris Calloway, facilitator for TriZPUG and  
application analyst for the Southeast Coastal Ocean Observing System.  
Chris has developed PyCamp for over 1500 hours on behalf of Python  
user groups. Early bird registration runs through June 30. So register  
today!

PyCamp is TriZPUG's Python Boot Camp, which takes a programmer  
familiar with basic programming concepts to the status of Python  
developer with one week of training. If you have previous scripting or  
programming experience and want to step into Python programming as  
quickly and painlessly as possible, this boot camp is for you. PyCamp  
is also the perfect follow-on to Plone Boot Camp: Customizing Plone  
the previous week.

At Plone Boot Camp: Customizing Plone you will learn the essentials  
you need to build your Plone site and deploy it. This course is the  
most popular in the Plone world--for a good reason: it teaches you  
practical skills in a friendly, hands-on format. This bootcamp is  
aimed at:
     * people with HTML or web design experience
     * people with some or no Python experience
     * people with some or no Zope/Plone experience
It covers using Plone, customizing, and deploying Plone sites.

At Advanced Plone Boot Camp: Plone 3 Techniques you will learn to  
build a site using the best practices of Plone 3 as well as advance  
your skills in scripting and developing for Plone. The course covers  
the new technologies in Plone 3.0 and 3.1intended for site integrators  
and developers: our new portlet infrastructure, viewlets, versioning,  
and a friendly introduction to Zope 3 component architecture. Now,  
updated for Plone 3.1! The course is intended for people who have  
experience with the basics of Plone site development and HTML/CSS. It  
will cover what you need to know to take advantage of these new  
technologies in Plone 3.

In the presentation on pycuda you mentioned some "research" about
image analysis, and how they were able to process it at 60 fps on gpu
compared to 1fps on cpu. Do you have a link to their site. I think you
mentioned they had their software under GPL??

I can't get an easy link to the paper now, but the author is Daniel
Cabrini Hauagge and some googling should reveal the paper URL. The
code is available at http://openvidia.sourceforge.net/CUDABOF.zip

I have the first 15 min of it, then the battery died.   So maybe you

Not sure if this is what you meant or not but I had heard that someone
ported Doctest to Java.  This was the first Google hit:
http://code.google.com/p/doctestj/ ... but if that is it then I'm
afraid they missed the point of Doctest entirely :(

Wow -- another hideous offspring of the genetically malformed (talking about the constraints of Java - not the good folks trying to make the best of it!)

I'm thinking of something quite different.

I'm sure everyone's tired of my junit rants, but let me reiterate: I hate junit. I'd like to test Java  by writing "doctest code" in a txt file that uses Jython's standard interface into the VM. I was wondering if any of our resident Jython users have seen/heard of this.

This would be possible with jpype, but that introduces CPython into the mix, which isn't needed in this case.

It's not along the lines of "doctest code" but have you seen TestNG?
http://testng.org/doc/  (Disclaimer: I have never written a lick of
Java in my life.)  But looking at it, I think TestNG offers way more
power and elegance over JUnit.  The downsides to it are that -- in
true Javanese -- it still makes some simple things complex and wants
to use XML for everything.  However there are some really cool
features, most of which are implemented in nose [1] but some of which
I'd like to steal for [*ahem* port to] nose!  One feature that would
be great for nose is how TestNG will dump an XML file of tests that
are failing, letting you re-run *just* the failing tests.  Nose could
do this sans XML by hooking into the testid plugin [2] I think.

[1] http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/
[2] http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/doc/plugin_testid.html

I was telling a Java developer about TestNG the other day and he said
"yeah ... but ... JUnit works with Eclipse."  And we stared at each
other blankly for a minute.

Have you just tried it?  The doctest module is pure python.  I don't  
know much about it's internals (or diddly about Java), but it might  
Just Work on Jython.

Yeah, at the very least I would expect the doctest module to work with Jython 2.5 alpha.

Message-ID: <b571660a0807181053v7e264a0dn14c0dca178f79587@mail.gmail.com>

I've just pushed 1.0 -- the *I Heart Data* release -- of fixture, a
Python module for loading and referencing test data. It is used
heavily at my work in two test suites: one for the functional tests of
an ETL framework and another for a Pylons + Elixir (SQLAlchemy) + Ext
JS web application.

http://farmdev.com/projects/fixture/

easy_install -U fixture


Highlights of This Release

    * SQLAlchemy 0.4 now finally works as a nice fixture backend
(0.5beta support is shaky, but mostly there).
    * Even more documentation! The new docs
(http://farmdev.com/projects/fixture/) have been completely
reorganized thanks to the venerable Sphinx. Of special note is a new
tutorial that shows how to use fixture to test a Pylons + SQLAlchemy
application: http://farmdev.com/projects/fixture/using-fixture-with-pylons.html

Many thanks to those who submitted issues and patches, especially to
Manuel Aristar?n, sokann, Brian Lee Hawthorne, and Jeffrey Cousens.

What's next? The fixture command that generates DataSet classes from a
real database needs some attention. It doesn't work with SQLAlchemy
0.5beta yet and could work better with SQLAlchemy based data models in
general. Aside from that, fixture seems to have stabilized for my apps
at work so I'll be waiting to hear from the community about what other
areas to improve on.

I haven't tried doctests with Jython yet, but I've used the regular 
unittest module for testing things with Jython a number of times.  It 
still feels like JUnit a bit, but is faster nonetheless.  :)

Hey Everyone!

   Its time for BARcamp Chicago 2008!  Last years was great and this 
year will be even better.

   A quick intro for those who dont know:  BARcamp Chicago as a weekend 
long (60 hours straight) technology fest.  People call it an 
"un-conference" or a "user-defined conference" or a "Burning Man for 
coding".  It happens once a year here in Chicago and is free to all. 
Come give a talk, listen, learn, code and drink.

FYI- BARcamp is not about bar's but a play on FOO=BAR and Oreillys 
private camp called FoO camp (Friends of Oreilly) in the Valley.


   We are shooting for the weekend of August 15th, but here is the rub. 
  (like every year) we need to find a venue.  Requirements for space are:

1) In Chicago

2) Open for use the whole weekend, 24 hours a day.

3) Allow beer and drinks (most colleges dont).

4) Room for ~300 people.


   We have event insurance and can chip in cash if our sponsors are good 
to us this year ;-)


   And as always, sponsors are welcome.  We have no prospectus or ROI or 
anything and no set amounts.  If you are start-up chip in $50 or 
whatever you can spare, if you are further along, help out the community ;-)

   Its really about YOU, the engineer, the entrepreneur, the manager, 
the hacker, the coder, the artist.  YOU the Chicago Tech community.

   Come make it happen and like the previous years, have a blast!

   If you want to keep up with it, you can join the mailing list:

   send email to: barcamp-unsubscribe at corp.hostedlabs.com?Subject=subscribe

Jason,

What type of space is necessary?  I see the approximate number of attendees a conference space would work...?  I may know of a place.  I do not know about alcoholic beverage but I think it is possible.

I will let you know.

Python group,
   
  I've been a lurker for some time. I keep hoping to make it to a python meeting in chicago! I loved pycon. 
   
  OK - I noticed this on a list I am on (Devchix) and I am not sure who wrote it but I'm passing on this information in case anyone wants to come to this event.
   
  cheers,
  alex mcferron
  http://www.devchix.com/
   
   
  Message i found on Devchix mailing list:
   
  I thought I would forward this Geek Girl event information
along:
   
  Girl Geek Dinners have been popping up all around the world for nearly
three years.  They've been huge successes in Sydney, London, San Fran,
Malaysia, Toronto,...(you get the point).   Next stop: Chicago!  And just
to clarify, this is not a ThoughtWorks event.  It's simply a group of
women (and yes men are invited as well)  in IT who are interested in
networking with people in the same field.
   
  The idea is to get a group of women who work in technology together to
discuss their experiences and exchange ideas in a comfortable, casual
environment.  The obvious goal of the event is to meet other women in jobs
similar to what you do every day and share knowledge.  The long term aim
is to make the technical world more intriguing and accessible to people of
all age, race, and gender. For more info:  http://girlgeekdinners.com/
   
  Why am I telling you this?
   
  Well we need some help.  If you know any women in technology in the
Chicago area, please reach out to them to see if they'd be interested in
attending.  There's no obligation obviously- consider this a user group
that will meet monthly or bimonthly at a selected venue.  We have a
facebook  page, as well a mailing list to keep everyone updated.  I
believe we already have over 30 people interested in attending.  Please
feel free to pass this information on to anyone you know who may be
interested in joining us.  Also, please let me know if you'd like to
attend or help with organization.
   
  Details
  Where:  ThoughtWorks office- 200 E. Randolph 25th Floor
  When: Friday, August 22nd  5:30/6:00 to 8:30
  How to get involved:  Email - ChicagoGGD at gmail.com, Facebook (Girls Geek

If the group is at its usual size (~15 people) we can host here at
Imaginary Landscape.  We'll just have to push aside the desks and
project against the wall. :)

Also, count us in for a talk too.  We have a bunch of Django pluggables
we've been planning on open open sourcing for Django for a while,
including:

 - An extensible Captcha system (integrates nicely with newforms, can
   even easily integrate your own captcha renderers, like an audio
   renderer)
 - an "assets" system
 - a cron system (what it sounds like, schedule for certain tasks to go
   off at certain times (with recurrence support), easily pushed from
   your python code)
 - a config system
 - regex and python method template tags... yes, we're evil.

Address:
  Imaginary Landscape
  5121 N Ravenswood Av
  Chicago IL 60640

As long as we're close to our usual size (ie, not Google megameeting
size), I think we'll be fine doing it here.

Sound okay?

He's referring to Djangonauts, which isn't the same as ChiPy, but is
also python related and in Chicago:
