Get ready for another awesome SD Ruby Meetup with one of our favorite speakers! Adam Cuppy will be giving us a preview of his talk for RailsConf, so you won't want to miss it! It all starts at 7:00pm at LEARN Academy, located at 704 J Street, practically across the street from the ballpark.
Metered parking downtown is free after 6pm or 8pm, depending on the area, so double-check the meter before you leave without paying. There are also several paid parking lots nearby, if you so choose. RSVP for the Meetup here: https://www.meetup.com/sdruby/events/glmlzmyxgbhb/ FEATURED TALKS FOR APRIL: Adam Cuppy, ZEAL - "Mechanically Confident" The idea that confidence is solely the result of positive self-talk is circular: If I believed in my ability to talk myself up, I would. But if I did, I wouldn't need to talk myself up. It's not as simple as having faith. There's a thread amongst all peak performers and skilled practitioners: specific habits, routines, and processes that wrap uncertainty and create confidence. Oscar-winning actors rehearse, pro-drivers do laps, chefs prep. This talk will help you recognize and design habits, routines, and practices that embed confidence into the body. Chris McCann - "Build Alexa Skills for Fun and Profit" LIGHTNING TALKS: We're always open for people to share lightning talks. Feel free to sign up here: http://bit.ly/1Nsq9g8 (Google Form).
