We had such a great time at First Magnitude I think we'll make a habit of it! When the sun sets, they have a firepit and ample seating. We can even toss a frisbee - here's one before First Magnitude love:
And, after:
Thanks to local entrepreneur Steven Kanner of www.kannerkarts.com for donating the fine Frisbee.
Here's some of what we talked about at the February meeting:
"Boy, we had a fantastic time yesterday at First Magnitude. Conversations were very diverse and included how C++ version 11 includes lambdas, wearable devices, Swift, WWDC and potential of developing apps for the new Apple watch may elicit an invite to the upcoming conference, Android, and more. The folks at First Magnitude have done such an incredible job. There was a little fire out back for warmth as it got chilly when the sun set. I think we're going to make a habit of this..."
Stay tuned, but this is it! We're having a blast. Hope you can join us. Bring a friend!

AI is no longer a research experiment or a novelty: it is part of the software delivery pipeline. Teams are learning that integrating AI into production is less about model performance and more about architecture, process, and accountability. In this issue on AI Assisted Development, we examine what happens after the proof of concept and how AI changes the way we build, and operate systems.
