Hey guys,
Next Thursday, November 12th at 7 PM is our next meeting taking
place at CoLab Orlando downtown. CoLab recently refurbished the
shared working space so user group meetings are MUCH more doable.
Envy Labs will be sponsoring the meeting with free food at 6 PM, so
come early for networking. For directions to CoLab, and free parking
options see this map: http://bit.ly/3fpMmZ.
At 7 PM I'll be doing a presentation titled "On The Edge of Rails
Performance". This is the same talk I presented at Aloha On Rails and
the Rails Summit Brazil last month. Here's the description:
Earlier this year I released a series of screencasts showing that
rails ships with all the tools needed scale your rails app. Since then
more Rails applications have gone into production, additional
techniques have been developed for optimizing performance, and more
open source libraries have been published. In this talk I'll be
showing a bunch of screencasts from these libraries and showing how
they make it THAT much easier to Scale Rails.
If for some reason you get to the building after 7 PM and the
front door is locked, feel free to give me a call at 407-754-5517.
After the meeting we'll have a discussion about future meetings and
how we can bring more code practice into our group. If it's important
for you to become an expert programmer, then you may want to join us
for this brainstorming session.
See you next week!
