Re: [toronto-lisp] Careers at R-squared - ,net, C#, iron python
by Ian Buckley 16 Sep '12

16 Sep '12

Hi, My name is Ian. I attended one of your meetings a couple of years ago. I have an interest in Lispy languages from using Mathematica a lot, which derives a lot of structure from Lisp. I now work for a software company in Toronto, R-squared. We happen to be expanding fast at the moment. The current hiring spree may be drawing to a close, but there are still jobs listed http://www.r2-financial.com/careers/. The framework is .net so lots of C#, but also some Iron Python for customizing the application. So I thought if any of you were looking for another job I would let you know. Unfortunately not much of a functional nature here, but if you could make a case for it... You can Link In with me before applying if you like: http://ca.linkedin.com/in/ianrcbuckley Best wishes, Ian

It seems that you can transfer from a 501 streetcar to a bus that keeps on Queen Street, if anyone is coming from downtown and wants to cut down on walking.

[toronto-lisp] swarm coding and code sharing
by Rudolf 03 Sep '12

http://technomancy.us/162 I've found that user groups often fall into a pattern of lecture style > presentations with slide shows. Since it's usually difficult to find > presenters, often it ends up that after a while whoever founded the group > speaks repeatedly. This leads to burn-out and isn't sustainable even if > you're fortunate enough to have presenters who are skilled public speakers. > It's also simply not a very good way to learn; your mind is a lot more > involved in a when engaged in active discussion. Interesting article, they're doing something called swarm coding where everyone ssh's into a machine and they pass control from one person to another using tmux or something else. I know we sometimes share code listings or links to code at the meetups but it might be wise to do that before the meetups so that we can discuss things instead of playing catchup and asking for explanations. I like reading Lisp code to try and improve my style and to learn more of the language and it's a breath of fresh air after dealing with Python/Django all day. Also, instead of having that toronto-lisp github account perhaps we should just add links to people's repos onto the website. -Rudolf O.

So we're having the next meeting at Wave Accounting, at 235 Carlaw Avenue Toronto, ON M4M 2S1 is that the correct address? If so, TTCers should be able to get there by the 501 Queen Streetcar. Anyone know the neighborhood reasonably well? Are we safe heading over there individually, or should we all meet up somewhere and head out as a group? -Leo

[toronto-lisp] New meeting location
by Me 29 Aug '12

29 Aug '12

Gentlemen, September is soon upon us, has a new meeting location been selected? Although last months meeting place was visually simulating at times I do not wish to be attacked by killer bees, alcoholic bums or gyrating booties. Paul's suggested location at the accounting firm sounds good! A place where we can get down to business. Any objections or alternative suggestions? As of today there is still time to decide. Regards Mark Rohn
