Hacking Wilderness Futures - Prototypes Pitch Day
10 Dec - 12:00 PM
București, Romania
What?
We want to up our game as nature conservationists or wildlife people. We want to join forces with other "tribes" to get better at what we do and how we do it. We aspire to inspire many disciplines to work for nature so that together we can really make a difference for our wellbeing an that of our planet. Read all about it, here.
Why?
Digital technologies and the Internet Of Things have fundamentally changed the ways in which knowledge is aquired and reconstituited the relationship between information and action. Working in and for nature requires adaptation to this new status quo and for naturalists to extend their activities into spacial, infrastructural, social and political aspects as well as technological innovation.
Our aim is to construe improved tools for wildlife monitoring and find fresh solutions for human wildlife conflict mitigation, as a key lever for better connectivity of wild areas.
How?
Between the 7-10th of December our team-mates at Modulab, the Bucharest-baesd art and science lab, together with friends like ESRI are hosting a workshop we like to call a "hackathon" to imagine and prototype some solutions to help naturalists resolve or reduce human wildlife conflict. Check our the programme, here.
Imagine new deterrants for wildlife which emit sound, or light or a live decision-making app for rangers which uses fresh satelite data live modelling or even some super tiny wildlife trackers which help us understand in precise details what we can do beter to coexist with the wild ones...
When?
Join us on Sunday, December 10th @ the Future Gardens, to see first hand what has come out and even be a part of the roadmap we are designing to take our experiements to the real world and production phase. With support from the impact makers of Impact Hub Bucharest we may be in for a 30,000 EUR grant to scale our prototypes, part of the Social Challenges programme.
+ a specially designed menu by Beauty Food, made with fresh local ingredients from the Bison Hillock.
+ handmade syroups, nectars and "răchie" curtuoasy of the locals from Armenis comune.
What next?
Bison are just the start...
This initiative is part of the Bison Hillock Innovation Lab project, which you can read more about here (RO).
Our work is made possible through the contribution of Switzerland to the extended European Union, as part of the Swiss-Romanian Cooperation Programme and the support and guidance of the Partnership Foundation team. We kindly thank our partners, including the local Bison Hillock Association from Armeniș and Armeniș City Hall.

DevHacks 2017 - 20 free tickets for tech ladies offered by Women Techmakers
27 Oct - 09:00 AM
Bucharest, Romania
Women Techmakers offers free tickets for DevHacks 2017, the largest 24hours hackathon in Bucharest! Hurry up and get yours now!
In 2017, we are celebrating the 3rd edition of DevHacks, so we want to make it count! The hackathon with 24 hours of coding is getting an upgrade to 8 new categories: Women in Technology, Video & Audio Hack, Web, Mobile, Big Data, AI & IoT & Robotics, Security, and DevOps.
We will unleash this intense competition on October 27, where 65 teams will meet 35 mentors and will unite their forces to develop innovative apps and smart solutions for our local reality!
Reasons to attend DevHacks
The Hackathon with a purposeWill you be able to build something that is usable by the end of DevHacks. This is the real practice in using the ability to get rid of features quickly if you anticipate that it cannot be done by demo time.
Ability to learn as fast as you canWhen you have multiple developers in the team with different skill sets, somebody has to learn a new language on the spot. Also this is a good reason to try something new (a new language/framework).
Working under limited timeYou won’t get that much sleep. You need to code your ass off to get something done for the demo.
Prizes, fun & friendsMaybe the best combination! If you expect to make new friends, have fun and win the big prize, you will be likely satisfied with the result.

Talks #100 - Anniversary Edition with Docker & Functional programming. Powered by UiPath
30 Jun - 07:30 PM
București, Romania
Yes, dear friends! It’s been 4 years since we started our first technical meetup with a gang of only 20 enthusiastic programmers. 100 editions later we are a big & active community with thousands of hearts in love with the same thing: bleeding edge tech.
Our Anniversary edition will be epic: Docker & Clojure will rock the stage and our amazing partner UiPath will bring us tasty pizza and cold beers to debate in style.
And guess what? We also like to party, so check out the After party event on our Facebook page.
Here’s the agenda for Talks #100:
19:30 - 19:45 - Welcome!
19:45 - 20:10 - Vali Mălinoiu → "From idea to product and from product to production"
A walk through setting up a Docker cluster the hard way, with loadbalancers, automatic service discovery, continuous delivery, continuous deployment, and a fully fledged production and staging environment, for under 50E.
20:10 - 20:20 - Break
20:20 - 20:45 - Mihai Petrescu & Bogdan Titiriga → Robotics in Payments
In this session you can see a POC, built as part of a hackathon, that automates the testing process of a POS device. See how Python, Java, AngularJS, Robot Framework and others integrates and runs together on a Raspberry PI.
20:45 - 20:55 - Break
20:55 - 21:20 - Alexandru Gherega → Fun-ctional Programming & Clojure
Imperative vs. Declarative? That is one of the questions which in the past decades has leaned towards the latter. Wouldn't you like NOT to have to write a unit-test for every single nugget of code? That is one of the many benefits we'll dig into this talk.
To sum-up, during this talk we'll succinctly give an overview over the FP paradigm as a declarative approach to coding, we'll see what the current FP landscape has to offer (both academic and commercial), we'll have a closer look at the cool Clojure language and gain insight into this technology – active research, industrial use, success stories, best APIs and libraries, careers and – most critically – what the future of all this could bring. See you there!
21:20 - Networking! :D
22:00 - Partyyyy
Special thanks go to our friends from UiPath for supporting the development of our community and being so responsive in helping us organize this event.
Price ticket: IT&C knowledge, tech enthusiasm, beer fan and a big amount of positive energy!
If you like this event, you know the drill: Join it! Like it! Share it! Spam it! Hack it! Harder, faster, stronger, better.
