Details
6:15pm: Intro and Whats going on in JavaScript Land? (20min)
We'll be talking about new/exciting things going on in the industry. If you have something you think we should mention, feel free to tweet us @DenverScript.
6:35 pm: Job Announcements
Anyone with a job opening can come up to the front and announce it to the group.
6:45 pm: Shorter Presentation(8 - 10min): Implementing Usable Enums for Fun and Profit (Mostly Profit) - Jonathan Curran
We'll see how to implement enumerations in JavaScript in a sane manner. At the end of this talk you'll be able to implement custom JSON serialization for your home-grown objects, and use comparison operators on them (<=, <, >, >=).
Jonathan is a software engineer. What more do you need to know? :P
7:00 pm: Longer Presentation(20 - 30min): The /bin directory, $PATH and your $PS1 - Kim Schlesinger
In this talk, Kim will describe how your computer stores executables files in your /bin directory and how they are used as commands. She’ll demystify how to alter the $PATH variable, which is often a part of installing new dev tools, and she’ll show you how to customize your command line by altering the $PS1 variable.
This talk is for people who use a terminal to run commands but want to learn more about what’s going on and how to customize their command-line interface.
Socialize until 8:15pm:
We'll have beer and pizza! We'll also allow people to announce any job opportunities they may have at that time so you can socialize with potential applicants.
