Sigh. I sometimes really wish that I have someone to discuss J with here in the Philippines over a cup of coffee.
Most of the times, whenever I have some problems related with J ... it just sort of fall in into one of these: 1. I discuss it with someone and get a blank look. 2. I discuss it with someone and get useless inputs. 3. I search JSoftware website with Google or search my email with Copernic Desktop search. 4. I just brute force to problem. Square-peg-round-hole solution. 5. I just hack it and hope that the bubble gums stay stuck. I hope you guys have a nice evening during the meeting. :) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Devon McCormick Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2007 10:27 AM To: J-general forum Subject: [Jgeneral] NYCJUG meeting Tuesday, 5/8 at 18:30,downstairs at the Heartland in the Empire State Buildingat 34th and 5th, NYC All interested in J are welcome! If you've learning a new language, especially one as rich as J, it's valuable to talk about it face-to-face with people. Even if you already know a language well, it's often illuminating to explain things to those less knowledgeable than you. The general format of our meetings is as follows: 18:30 - 19:00 Beginner's regatta - we cover topics on basic facilities of J 19:00 - 19:30 Show-and-tell - attendees are encouraged to show recent code on which they've been working in order to show off, and to solicit advice and sympathy. 19:30 - 20:00 Advanced topics - we look at more advanced features of the language. 20:00 - 20:30 Learning and teaching J - we're distilling our own experiences to help others get a handle on J and improve our own knowledge of it. 20:30 - ? General talk, drink beer, go home, eat dinner, whatever. These broad areas are structured and ordered so that you may arrive or leave earlier or later depending on your particular interests. -- Devon McCormick, CFA ^me^ at acm. org is my preferred e-mail ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
