Semantic Garage is at the cutting edge of semantic and natural language processing. It's where new web companies in the semantic space can showcase live demos and where open discussion and debate about the future and philosophy of semantic technologies emerge.

The primary focus of Arduino Bay is to teach innovation surrounding Arduino, and to facilitate networking.

We'll discuss different kinds of algorithms. First, we'll try to understand basic algorithms. We'll also discuss simple puzzles and brain teasers. If you are not from mathematical background, you'll find it simple and if you are from computer science, you'll find it interesting. You can also post any algorithms you want to discuss in particular. Learning Practical Applications: We'll try to understand algorithms practical applications. The challenge is not to write complex algorithms but to …

It's really hard to get anything done alone. Sharing technique and knowledge is key in getting to a stable build. Meeting frequently, discussing our projects and presenting what we've made can bring the art to another level. Even if you come with little experience, we're sure you can make meaningful contributions. We are a group of technologists, designers and hobbyists that support a healthy and empowered culture of collaboration and invention. We hold regular public meetings and maintain onlin …

App Day events are just like hackathons except we aim to launch products at end of day. While hackathons are product oriented, I like to think App Day is people/team oriented. My goal as the organizer of App Day is to build powerful product teams so to improve my own skills as a developer. But the only way to achieve that is to surround myself with talented, committed individuals who would make it their goal to build me up and make me better as I do the same for them. We Must lift each other up …

We meet once a month to drink beer & share lessons learned on various topics including computer science, design, HCI, complex systems development, programming languages, compiler optimization, cryptography, computer music, AI... and whatever else the group finds interesting. The common thread is that most of the presenters & audience know at least one dialect of lisp (eg Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, Emacs Lisp, etc). But it is definitely a polyglot (not just lisp-related) group & presentations …
