10 Nov 2018

Presented by Chloe Condon, Developer Evangelist (Sentry.io).

“Engineers are people, too: They like the be entertained” been an ongoing mantra in Sentry.io's monthly meetup. As a former musical theater actress, Chloe Condon found that many meetups, conferences, and events lack the “entertainment” she was used to consuming “on stage”. Yes, the talks are highly technical, and no, the speakers aren't singing or dancing—but isn’t there a way to make these entertaining?

Presented by Yangqing Jia, Director, Facebook AI Infrastructure (Facebook).

One of the greatest advantages for leaders in AI innovation comes from the ability to quickly bring cutting-edge research to large-scale production. Earlier this year, Facebook announced the roadmap for PyTorch 1.0. Continuing in the open source spirit of its predecessors, PyTorch 1.0 is being developed completely in the open with contributors from major academic and industry research institutes, utilizing open source platforms and tools such as GitHub, Jenkins, Conda, and Python PIP. PyTorch 1.0 combines the scalability of Caffe2 with PyTorch’s flexible front end to create a multi-faceted deep learning system that delivers an accelerated end-to-end research-to-production experience. Come learn about PyTorch 1.0, and how it can help you embed AI into your workflow with strong GitHub community support.

A discussion with Gunho Lee, Chief Engineer (Enuma and Kitkit School, Global Learning Prize XPRIZE Finalist) and John Jones,
Vice President of Interactive Strategies (The Case Foundation), hosted by Admas Kanyagia, Director, Social Impact (GitHub).

The social sector is often left behind in the race for technology. Open source can offer a way for social change actors like foundations, governments, nonprofits and educational institutions to create useful, open source tools that can unlock innovation and achieve their goals. Come learn how the Case Foundation and an XPRIZE Finalist are developing code and software to address social issues in the world around. They will share their challenges, opportunities and benefits that open source offers for social change actors.

8 Nov 2018

Presented by Sarah Guthals, Manager, Engineering (GitHub) & Rachel Macfarlane, Software Engineer (Microsoft).

Independently, the Visual Studio Code team at Microsoft and the editor tools team at GitHub began exploring the possibility of an integration between their two products. The team at Microsoft started to design a pull request experience within Visual Studio Code, while the GitHub team prototyped one modeled after the same experience in the Visual Studio IDE. In this session, you’ll get an overview of how two companies worked together to support collaborative and open source development. You’ll also hear about the latest features and learn how you can contribute.

Presented by Tilde Ann Thurium, Application Engineer (GitHub).

Developer tools can be an efficiency multiplier, but tools only help when you actually use them. It's also tough to balance time between "learning to use your tools better" and "getting things done." Get an introduction to the psychology of making habits stick and hear about some lesser-known yet powerful features of Atom, the hackable text editor. From real-time collaborative text editing to built-in Git integration, there's a lot you might not know your editor can do.

Presented by Charlyn Gonda, Software Engineer (Uber).

Modern microcontrollers make it easy to bring your code out of the digital world and into the physical. Learn how any software engineer can get started with microcontroller programming, beginning with the Particle Photon board, a wifi-enabled microcontroller. You already know how to code. Now you just need a basic understanding of circuits and familiarity with the latest tools. Let’s pick up our soldering irons and put on safety goggles—it’s time to make things.

7 Nov 2018

Presented by Jason Etcovitch, Learning Engineer (GitHub).

We share how we built Learning Lab using public GitHub APIs and Probot, a framework for building GitHub Apps. We’ll also share implementation details for reusable API abstractions - using these actions, you can build your own courses on Learning Lab to teach developers how you work, what your product or integration does, or something completely new.

Presented by David Habusha, VP of Product (WhiteSource).

Learn how functions such as vulnerability discovery and impact analysis can help developers focus on real security risks that affect their applications, pinpointing the calls to vulnerable code, down to the pertinent filename and line number. You'll also see how to use security checks in GitHub to tap into the normal SDLC working environment with integrations like the Checks API.

6 Nov 2018

Presented by Lin Clark, Principal Developer Advocate (Mozilla).

We start with the narrative of collaboration with experiential artist Ian Brill who created the ARCH piece and progress into how code can express 3D Space (perhaps 4D if you include time) in computing power. Then we’ll dive into why this structure is a good mental model for how WebAssembly and JavaScript work together through something called linear memory.
