TUESDAY (TONIGHT or tomorrow if you read quickly) Tech Meeting Tues, Jul 11th The Perl Conference 2017 Review : Lightning Talk Dim Sum ( from TPC / YAPC::NA) MIT E51-376 starting 7.30 (but I'll be there 7-ish)
Attendees will select Lightning Talks from The Perl Conference 2017 playlist. We can't play all 29 of them unless we 'gong' more than half quickly after starting, but at 6 minutes each, we can get through a dozen (unless we choose to discuss and experiment between). Samples from among the 29 six-minute choices available - * "Emulating Any API" * "Perl 6 Str Considered Harmful" * "Administering Slack Contests with Perl" * "In Response to D. Conway's Test::Expr" * "A Personalized Calendar in Perl" * "Why Google's Dart should be your next programming language" * "Hacking the Interviewing Process" Bill will be our VJ, but the audience will lead. * NOTE PARKING ALERT BELOW * Boilerplate -- Tech Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at MIT building E51, Sloan School Tang Center [not the other Tang building!] nearer to Kendall Sq than Mass Ave. (directions). Talk begins at 7:30. Refreshments in the hallway prior. RSVP for count encouraged but not required, to bill.n1...@gmail.com or Boston-PM list, by 4pm Tuesday. *** Parking Alert. *** Recent changes in MIT Parking Dept web pages (parking , visitors, public ) no longer allow un-permitted parking after-hours. (This is a natural response to several other East Campus parking lots being eaten by new building sites for campus expansion.) Only legit parking is Cambridge meters (late hours!) and paid lot/garages. Also, construction detour is even longer than last time if driving, Wadsworth to/from Mem Drive & Amherst St to Amess both closed, only access by car is Wadsworth to/from Main St east-bound. Come by Train, Bus, Bicycle, or Foot if you can! (Parking at MBTA Garages are convenient to T and not overpriced, unlike most in-town garages.) Further details on Parking, see http://boston.pm.org/MIT+Directions/ ( Anyone with ideas for sites with safe gratis parking _and_ good MBTA access, let me know ! ) _______________________________________________ Boston-pm-announce mailing list Boston-pm-announce@mail.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm-announce
