This month there will be a presentation by Noah Gibbs entitled:
Conscious Coding Practice: The Three Concrete Steps
You feel guilty about not knowing enough "Computer Science." But that isn't what you're still missing in your coding. If you could just pick up any problem and solve it, you wouldn't care if you used a formal-sounding algorithm to do it.
There's a way to get that "fingertip feel" for coding; and it comes from mindful, conscious practice.
Sounds abstract, doesn't it?
Instead, it's very simple, specific and concrete. We'll go over the basic steps, the pitfalls, and how to do it. It works whether you're a beginner or an expert. You'll be able to create coding studies for yourself, not just find other people's exercises that are already worked out for you.
The examples are in Ruby but the technique works with any language, library or paradigm. It's also good for pairing.
MEAL
Before the presentation, we'll meet for a meal:
5.30pm La Tortilla Asesina, Castle Street, Inverness. All welcome.
MEETING
The presentation will be from 7pm at the Impact HUB, 67 Castle Street. If you're just coming for the presentation, please arrive promptly as we'll all go inside the Impact HUB at the same time. Please let us know in advance if you're going to be later.
Our group is an informal and friendly setting for chat about all types of web developing/designing/branding-related stuff. It's a good place for techy people of all kinds to get together, socialise and network.
