Fwd: [pdxfunc] Expand your Knowledge with The Erlang Games

[Thomas Lockney]

Forwarding this along, in case this is of interest to any of you. There's a lot of good stuff to be learned from the Erlang world and Casey's a sharp guy, so... this should be interesting. 

On a somewhat tangential note (but related by nearness of date), if you haven't already seen via the Meetup notification, we've decided to cancel the January meeting of PDXScala. The are a few reasons why, but in part (and somewhat making up for it), we've got a tech talk going on out here at Nike (where I work) that will be of interest to many of you. The talks will be on the 22nd which won't conflict, but it's close enough that I couldn't make it to both. I'll send out more details in the next few days, but note that one of the speakers will be Dean Wampler, the big data guy at Typesafe and author of O'Reilly's Programming Scala. He'll be talking about Spark, but like I said, I'll have more specific info to share in a few days.

Hello everyone,

In case you haven't seen my other posting, those of you out there looking to sharpen your skills in the functional programming world might be interested in our next Erlang & Elixir meetup as we'll be putting hands on keyboards and doing actual coding.

Wednesday Jan 21st 6:30pm - 8:30pm.

Renewable Funding

400 SW 6th Ave, Suite 902

• This month Casey Rosenthal will lead us through the first session of his Erlang Games.  Both beginners and experts alike will have a chance to match brains against seemingly easy problems and learn new and surprising approaches.

  Join us and expand your knowledge of Erlang and computing in general!

  We'll be putting hands-to-keyboards for coding.

  If you don't already have Erlang installed on your favorite geekbox, quick instructions can be found here: http://learnyousomeerlang.com/introduction#what-you-need 

  Learn more about Casey and his wisdom here:

  There will be food and beverages.
