I’m speaking in Orlando at the Google Developer Group Central Florida at Design Interactive about the beginner-friendly Android dev tool you didn’t know about on Thursday! Join me as I take you on a fun (and funny) tour of Ren’Py, the amazing visual novel engine that also happens to be a very nice Android development tool. Find out more and register here.
Happening Thursday morning online: ClearlyAgile’s May webinar, Creating Actionable User Stories: Methods for Writing and Splitting with Purpose, presented by Fred Mastropasqua and Robert Shaw! Find out more and register here.
Also on Thursday — the Tampa Bay AWS User Group is hosting a meetup called Cloud Encounters of the Ransomware Kind, where GreenPages will discuss their view from the trenches when dealing with cloud-based compromises and Orca Security will discuss how their innovative Cloud Security Platform enables companies to scale in the cloud with confidence. Find out more and register here.
Another Thursday happening: Tampa Bay Devops is looking for speakers, and this meetup is your chance to get a speaking gig! Find out more and register here.
Yet another thing happening on Thursday: Tampa QA Meetup will be at the ECC, and their topic is Games and Puzzles to Build and Improve Testing Skills. Bob Crews will explain the history of games and their role in developing specific skill sets, discover the types of games to use for identifying personality traits and key attributes, and understand the value of games for boosting morale. You’ll leave with an understanding of specific games, puzzles, and brainteasers that target certain skills, as well as when to play and observe. Find out more and register here.

About this list
How do I put this list together? It’s largely automated. I have a collection of Python scripts in a Jupyter Notebook that scrape Meetup and Eventbrite for events in categories that I consider to be “tech,” “entrepreneur,” and “nerd.” The result is a checklist that I review. I make judgement calls and uncheck any items that I don’t think fit on this list.
In addition to events that my scripts find, I also manually add events when their organizers contact me with their details.
What goes into this list? I prefer to cast a wide net, so the list includes events that would be of interest to techies, nerds, and entrepreneurs. It includes (but isn’t limited to) events that fall under any of these categories:
- Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
- Tech project management / agile processes
- Video, board, and role-playing games
- Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
- Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
- Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
- Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
- Self-improvement, especially of the sort that appeals to techies
- Anything I deem geeky
