New Python meetup (with board game bonus)

When: Wednesday April 27th 2016 7:00pm to 10:00pm

Where: The Pheasant Plucker @ 20 Augusta Street

Register: meetup.com/Python-Hamilton/events/230127426

Organizer: Python Hamilton (@PythonHamilton) by Colin Gorrie (@colingorrie)

For the inaugural meetup of Python Hamilton, we’ve got two presentations scheduled:

• Brandon Aubie will talk about embedding Python within other applications using Boost.Python, with examples drawn from his project SpikeDB (a neuroscience data analysis platform).

• Colin Gorrie will be giving a presentation on inflect, a string formatting package that makes plurals, verb-agreement, and spelling out numbers a breeze.

• Danny will be showing us around an app called Wifi User Detection System, which was inspired by the need to alert you when zombies are approaching your house.

The rest will be an informal meet and greet. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Board Game Bonus

Due to a scheduling conflict, game development meetup GameDevDrinks actually got booked on the same night, at the same venue. The cool thing is the meetups have decided to work together, and following the Python talks, there will be a bit of a “fireside chat” with some great board game creators (Aron West of Catacombs, Thomas of Lynnvander, and Jason of Drinking Quest), followed by board game fun. Sounds like a great night to me!
