Yes!

We'll continue to have meetings.

We don't have an official leader, but as long as there is continued interest, and we can continue to find venues, we'll keep meeting.

Brian Bascoy put in a reservation for a meeting room at the Montlake library for November 23rd.

Technically the reservation was still pending yesterday, but Brian will confirm when it settles.

Time and location are on the website: https://seattlehaskell.org/

Also, if we're ever unable to secure a venue, Eric Merritt (organizer for the Beerly Functional meetup - https://www.meetup.com/Beerly-Functional/) has graciously extended an open invitation for SeaHUG to meet at the same time and place as Beerly Functional, and the two meetups can run concurrently.

I just received the confirmation from the Montlake public library, so it's now official: our next meetup is Saturday 23rd of November, between 1 PM and 4 PM, as usual :)

In the e-mail they included the following condition/guideline: "Meeting rooms are reserved for non-commercial use only; users may not advertise or sell products, memberships or services, and no fees, donations or money may be requested or collected. No contact information may be solicited from attendees for the purpose of advertising or selling. All meetings must be open to the public."

cheers!

Can someone be responsible sending out a reminder a few days before the next meeting?

Since we are not using Meetup.com anymore I've created an event on Eventbrite for the next meeting:

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/seattle-area-haskell-users-group-monthly-meeting-tickets-77773455499

I think if you register to the event they will send you an e-mail alert the day before, but if you don't want to register they also provide an iCalendar file you can import with any calendar application: click on "Add to Calendar" and then "Apple Calendar" (disregard the name, it's a standard ics file).

Great idea! Thanks for setting this up, Brian.

I registered with the Eventbrite link.

[Brian Gomes Bascoy]

So, does anyone has any idea for a topic? :)

Here is something I found interesting: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.09471.pdf (Learn Quantum Mechanics with Haskell)

It uses the learn-physics library to model a quantum physics lab. If anyone here has domain knowledge in QM I would love if we could play a little bit with this "laboratory language" thing.

By the way, since we are not listed on Meetup.com anymore, do you think we should announce the meetings somewhere else? (e.g. uni's bulletin boards, local mailing lists, etc)

Cheers

[Dave Compton]

In response to Brian Bascoy's comment about announcing the meetings somewhere, there's a meetup.com clone called gettogether that, I believe, is free to use.  I don't have much experience with it but another group that I sometimes participate in recently left meetup and joined gettogether.

[Brian]

Cool, that looks pretty much like Meetup, I will try to write something
up tomorrow and post it there. Thanks Dave!

Hey, I just wanted to remind everyone that tomorrow (11/23) will be our next meeting, between 1 PM and 4 PM @ the Montlake Public Library.

Hope to see you there!

[Michael Kerekes]

I have written a lot of library code over the past few months, and learned a lot of little Haskell tricks along the way.  I can do a show and tell on some of it.
