DESCRIPTION: On April May 9th\, join ~150 devs at SF Python's presentation 
 night to hear a few short talks and one more PyCon talks from local speake
 rs :) Our generous sponsor Yelp will also provide pizza and beer for the e
 vening. \n\n If you'd like to make a 1-2 minutes announcement at the openi
 ng of this meetup and contribute back to the community\, considering stepp
 ing up as a video sponsor. You will help fulfill the #1 requests of those 
 who can't attend the meetup and enjoy additional sponsor perks. \n\n If yo
 u'd like to present a 5 mins Lightning talk or a 10-15 mins Short Talk at 
 a future meetup\, please submit your talk ideas here. \n\n PROGRAM \n\n Li
 ghtning talks \n\n \n Jardin\, the friendly and lightweight ORM for Python
 \, by Emmanuel Turlay \n Deploying SciKit Learn Models in Flask\, by Ben A
 aron \n Moving a Python Colossus at Pinterest\, Slowly\, by Jordan Adler \
 n \n\n Short talk(~10 mins + Q&amp\;A) \n\n Making the most out of Mypy by
  Phil Nachum \n\n Mypy is great for avoiding bugs\, but with tweaks to how
  we model our data\, we can often produce more reliable and clearer code. 
 The talk covers some of these techniques. \n\n Bio of Phil Nachum \n\n I'm
  a software engineer at Freenome\, a biotech startup on a mission to cure 
 cancer. I'm new to Python\, but I'm a big fan of typed functional programm
 ing and bringing ideas from that world into Python. \n\n Main talk (~30 mi
 ns + Q&amp\;A) \n\n Visualizing Algorithms with Python and Programmable LE
 Ds by Christopher Beacham / Lady Red \n\n Recently\, a new LED strip speci
 fication\, APA102\, has been released which allows these strips to be driv
 en by a general purpose CPU instead of a dedicated microcontroller. This a
 llows us the luxury of controlling them with Python! \n\n I'll teach you a
 bout how to get the hardware\, how to think about programming for lights a
 nd how to build anything from a psychedelic art installation to home light
 ing to an educational tool. \n\n Programming with lights is awesome becaus
 e you can SEE bugs with your eyes. I think the use of these LED's have gre
 at potential as a teaching tool because of the immediacy of the feedback. 
 \n\n LIVE hardware demos! See Quicksort in brilliant colors! \n\n Bio of C
 hristopher Beacham \n\n I am a Senior Software Developer at Hipmunk. I've 
 been programming in python for more than a decade. I'm also an artist and 
 maker. I frequent the hackerspace Noisebridge in San Francisco\, where I s
 ew\, paint\, work on electronics projects.and teach a beginner level pytho
 n class. I also go by the name Lady Red \n\n AGENDA \n\n 6:00p - Check-in 
 and mingle\, with food provided by our generous sponsor Zenefits! \n\n 7:0
 5p - Welcome \n\n 7:30p - Door close \n\n 7:10p - Announcements\, lightnin
 g talks and main talk \n\n 8:15p - More mingling \n\n 9:30p - Hard stop \n
 \n SF Python is run by volunteers aiming to foster the Python community in
  the Bay Area. Please consider making a donation to SF Python and saying a
  big thank you to Yelp for providing pizza\, beer\, and the venue for this
  Wednesday's meetup. \n\n Yelp sees 89 million mobile users and 79 million
  desktop users every month. Keeping everything running smoothly requires t
 he best and brightest in the industry. Their engineers come from diverse t
 echnical backgrounds and value digital craftsmanship\, open-source\, and c
 reative problem-solving.  They write tests\, review code\, and push multip
 le times a day.  Come out and talk to them. \n
