WutzDoin Merced

This is the second installment of this event. The first was held last year with about twenty-two participants. This will be Sophcons first hackathon so fingers cross.

The event will take same day registrations, so if you are in the area and would like to join in on the fun or just want to come show your support, come on by.

For time, location and details visit Valley Hackathon

For time and location visit Fun With Technology.

The topic for this meetup is surrounding PowerShell. The idea behind this discussion is to help developers understand the tools of systems automation and provide infrastructure engineers a bit more depth on the language. Initially we will discuss the PowerShell ecosystem and the current state of the technology.

Thanks to Matt Faulkner for providing the venue.

The “Let’s Get Functional” topic series is geared towards learning and sharing experiences in making the functional programming transition (or at least adding and/or growing the skill set), from a more traditional Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) model.

Functional programming has found itself in many new/emerging technologies and OOP developers struggle in making the transition. Sophcon is no different and we want to start the conversation about what we’ve learned, in hopes that this will help others. And in the process, do a bit of learning ourselves, from others and their feedback/experiences.
