#77 Using R for Rice Supply Chain Optimization (for the IATF-FVC Committee)
2020-06-17 18:00 - 21:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Online event
Returning RUG old-timer and one of our suki speakers in the past, Prof. Rex Jalao will share with us what he had been busy with during this pandemic (aside from taking care of his newborn baby – yay, congrats to the new Dad!). He will discuss his study on balancing rice demand and supply logistics, working with the UP Diliman Task Force on Supply Chain, under the IATF Sub Committee on Food Value Chain.
We will also know about the rice supply and demand estimation model, a study made by UP Stat Professor and member of same IATF Sub Committee, Prof. Francisco “Kikko” delos Reyes. We’d be honored to have Prof. Kikko join us again, even for “moral support” to Rex as he discusses the study 🙂
Prof. Rex is currently the Program Director for UP NEC Analytics Training, and still teaches Industrial Engineering in UP Diliman.

In a Gist: Lambda and Serverless Functions
2020-06-11 17:00 - 18:30 | Online event
What are serverless functions, what exactly are they for, and what problems do they solve? In this session, we’ll talk about the very basics of getting started with AWS Lambda, as well as the foundational concepts behind serverless technologies.
We’ll also introduce the Serverless Framework, a third-party development tool that can help you manage your serverless functions, as you grow more experienced and build more and more complicated applications.
If you’ve always wanted to explore serverless tech and/or AWS Lambda, but didn’t know where to start, please join us in this session dedicated to the basics, all packaged in a short and sweet format.
Speaker: Richard Ilagan, AWS Prototyping Architect & Proud PinoyLevel: 100
Note: This is a two-part series. The second part will take place on June 25 at the same time.

Meetup #12 - Coffee with James Bach - Software Exploratory Testing
2020-06-11 08:30 - 10:00 | Online event
MoT-PH proudly presents for the first time in the Philippines, we have JAMES BACH.
In the 90’s, I made the term “exploratory testing” popular. Now I don’t use it. Why? Because all testing is exploratory, to some degree. All testing also has scripted elements, but it is useful to treat scripting as a foreign element. In this talk I will explain that.

This session we’ll be talking about containerization and how to use one of the well-known tools for this: Docker.
In preparation for this, please go through the following.

The next few links are hands on tutorials. You may want to read through the whole Docker Documentation. But if it feels overwhelming for you, the next three links are great to help you ease in to Docker.

Speaker profile:Majid Hajian
Majid Hajian is a passionate software developer with years of developing and architecting complex web and mobile applications. He is passionate about web platform especially Flutter, IoT and PWAs. He loves sharing his knowledge with the community by writing and speaking, contributing to open source and organizing meetups and events. Majid is the award-winning author of “Progressive web app with Angular” book by Apress and “Progressive Web Apps” video course by PacktPub and Udemy. He is (co)organizer of a few mobile and web meetups in Norway as well as Nordic conferences for mobile and Angular, Mobile Era and ngVikings.
Talk:Adopting DevOps in mobile app development can be a game-changer and ensures teams become more productive in terms of execution and collaboration. On the other hand, Flutter is a new technology for developing beautiful cross-platform mobile/web and embedded apps with a single code base from Google surpassing many similar technologies such as React Native and has been growing very rapidly.
Nevertheless, there are many challenges while developing a mobile app, especially with Flutter such as CI/CD to Google Play and AppStore, bumping build or release version automatically, running test, checking code coverage, code style formatting, monitoring, crash analyzer, taking snapshots, running gold tests, code signing and sharing keys among team members effortlessly, writing changelogs. These are just some of the repetitive, time-consuming tasks which may lead an inconsistency too.
Although this talk will demonstrate how each of the mentioned challenges can be solved while developing a Flutter app, most of the ideas can be reused for any kind of mobile app development in order to boost productivity as well as developers, stack holders, and client satisfaction.

[ONLINE] SwiftPH Meetup#32 | Coordinator Pattern in iOS
2020-05-09 20:00 - 21:30 | Online event
Hello Everyone! For our next online meetup Zonily Jame Pesquera will be sharing about Coordination Pattern in iOS. How can we use coordination pattern to simply navigation and dependency management in our projects? Thanks Z! 🙂
For our intro this time, we will start off by sharing some tips or practices that we use to make our code reusable. Di naman kelangan complicated yung tip, it can be a quick tip on a certain project na nagawa mo na before or nabasa/napanood mo somewhere, pero if walang mashare oks lang rin, wala naman problem yun. We will be giving 2-3 mins per person for the intro section if you will be sharing some tips! 🙂
Also, prepare na lang siguro tayo ng zoom background natin…. wala parin ako maisip for now, pero if may suggestion kayo, comment niyo na lang kung ano ung zoom background for this time hehe 🙂

In this talk, we are going to go over the Flutter’s State Management options, how we can use them and last but not least we will learn how we can put all of this information to create the best architecture for our application.

What is a Technical Study Group?
Women Who Code Technical Study Groups are events where women can come together and help each other learn and understand a specific programming language, technology, or anything related to coding or engineering.
We welcome developers of all levels and encourage those with more experience to help out those that are just starting. There’s always at least one mentor or leader present to help you with best practices or to guide you through if you are stuck with a nasty problem! 🙂
