+DESCRIPTION: The 21st century techno-surveillance state is the oil that ru\r
+ ns the deportation and mass incarceration machines. In Donald Trump and Je\r
+ ff Sessions' America\, it's more important than ever to fight for our core\r
+ values: freedom\, equality\, justice\, and democracy. That means using yo\r
+ ur technical skills in the service of liberation\, but it also means engag\r
+ ing as an ordinary citizen in the messy work of lobbying and organizing. T\r
+ his talk will lay out some of the greatest challenges we face in 2017\, an\r
+ d describe in detail some concrete ways we must unite to fight—not only \r
+ against the Trump regime's dastardly plans\, but also for the future we co\r
+ llectively need to build.\r

+DESCRIPTION:This presentation will open a discussion about how we are intr\r
+ oducing new developers to programming. Most textbooks\, tutorials\, and tr\r
+ ainings begin by introducing new developers to mathematics lessons within \r
+ the language. Many courses on programming require math skills as prerequis\r
+ ites. However\, math prowess is not usually an indicator of one's potentia\r
+ l programming abilities. Those people who have been told from a young age \r
+ that they aren't good at math or generally doubt their math skills often f\r
+ eel excluded from the world of programming unnecessarily. I will pose ques\r
+ tions about whether we can be using methods other than math skills to teac\r
+ h programming languages to adult beginners. I propose logic and reasoning \r
+ skills are more important programming concepts to master to help new devel\r
+ opers succeed. Let's change the way we're teaching programming and break d\r
+ own more artificial barriers to entry for becoming a developer.\r

+ legacy of using proprietary technology. As ML becomes more and more popula\r
+ r with industry-scale large applications\, many new and powerful proprieta\r
+ ry pushes have been trying to enter different parts of the ML application \r
+ stack. We need to be prepared for the challenges of keeping free and open \r

+ e and the new proprietary push side. However\, ML is still overlooked in o\r
+ ur conversations about free and open technology\, although many open sourc\r
+ e alternatives have made ways into ML research\, development\, and industr\r
+ y applications. In this session\, we will first have a quick glimpse at th\r
