Subject: LUG: Meeting Tomorrow: Quantum Computing + Vote on some stuff!
 **ROOM CHANGE**
Message-ID: <20170112002610.GA27963@mines.edu>

LUGgers,

Ever want to learn some stuff about quantum computing without devoting
your life to insanity? Ariel Shlosberg (Physics + CS Major) will be
giving a talk about quantum computing that should be mostly
comprehensible to the standard Mines student!

This talk will be tomorrow (Thursday, the 12th) at 6pm. We will be in a
new room this time... please note the new room: GC 297

Also, we will be voting on a few things I mentioned in an email before
break. If you are interested in running for Secretary or Linux Help
Guru and have not emailed me already, please email me ASAP.

You must be present at our meeting to participate in voting.

See you there! Let me know if you have any concerns.

Jack

Tech Talk: Pancakes and Waffles, How DevOps @OFI Gets Done
Jeremy Hudson, Head of DevOps
January 24th, 5:30pm
Brown W210

Abstract

Evolution or revolution, change is constant. To support a complex and diverse technology portfolio in the enterprise, we had to rethink our process, culture and conjure up a bit of code to make it all work.

DevOps is more than just a single team, a new way of doing things or a product. It takes many people, flexing their technical muscles, crossing organizational boundaries, while creating some cool technology. We'll share what we do and how we do it, including how we organize and operate, what apps we buy, build and use, and why we embarked on this journey to dramatically change how OppenheimerFunds delivers technology.

Bio

As the head of DevOps for OppenheimerFunds (OFI), Jeremy is a consummate player-coach, leading technology teams from infrastructure to code to infrastructure-as-code. Along the way, implementing highly available systems, and scalable automated technology. Prior to joining OFI, Jeremy was the Founder and Chief Technology Officer with SimpleNETWORKS, building a modern tech stack, software-as-a-service platform, for deploying and managing application delivery. Previously, he was the Director of Technology Operations at Placeable and Director of Information Technology at Ping Identity.

Message-ID: <CAK-LiW8FwQx_RUVjoXH8rmiJSGuJbJLRYAOvi0=3g8bdALHiEA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

I'll be giving Linux Help Sessions on Thursdays from 5:00 to 6:00 pm in GC
297. This time is right before the weekly LUG meetings, so just stop by a
little earlier and I can help you out.

If that doesn't work for you and you'd like to meet at another time, then
just send me an email and we can find another time to meet.

If your question is a big one (like installing a Linux distro), please
arrive earlier in the session (5:30 or earlier); otherwise there may not be
enough time to finish that up before the meeting starts. I'd be happy to
help after the presentation if we do run out of time though.

Finally, feel free to invite others (non-LUGers!) to come to the session,
I'd like to help anyone I can and not just do homework for the entire hour!

Thanks,
Nick

Subject: LUG: Vimperator users, don't upgrade to FF 51
Message-ID: <CAMen+gd6w3rQPrb6E8d-c=XuRqpo68VR-cOiczB5GC_kcPSKAw@mail.gmail.com>

Hello LUGgers,

Just a warning about Firefox 51. I just updated to Firefox 51 and now all
tab* Vimperator commands (including tabopen, tabclose, etc.) do not work.
After some research, it does not appear that this problem is fixed. If you
use Vimperator, I recommend waiting until this is fixed before updating
Firefox.

Thanks,

Looks like there's a fix on a separate branch in their GitHub
repository. If you want to live on the bleeding edge, you should look at
this page: https://github.com/vimperator/vimperator-labs/issues/674

Or you could just use version "ancient point ancient"... works well!

Message-ID: <20170131194704.GA11014@mines.edu>

LUGgers,

This Thursday, we will be meeting again in GC 297 at 6pm. Sam will be
talking about computer graphics. You'll get to learn all about how
computers convert a model of a universe onto a 2-dimensional pixel array
called your screen using a mostly sane process! It should be really
exciting; grab your friends to tag along again.

And if that was not enough, there will be a LAN Party!! this Friday. If
you are new and unfamiliar with what this is; we will be getting
together, playing games, eating pizza, and overall having a fun time. It
will start Friday at 6pm and go until we get very tired. If you are new
to LUG, I highly encourage you attend if you can. Bring your friends as
well.

Also, tonight there is a Tech Talk from the CEO of POSSIBLE Mobile.
There will be free pizza as well. If you are interested, here's the
details:

  Date: TODAY, 2017-01-31
  Time: 6pm
  Location: BB W280

See you at all three events.

Jack
