Caution! This message was sent from outside the University of Manitoba. Greetings y'all, (I hope this is the correct venue for asking a 'group question'.... If I'm doing this wrong I'm prepared to take my lumps at tonight's meeting!) I have a number of smaller projects here, some of which are 'in the middle of' using Pi's and/or Arduino's that I'm asking if there's anyone who's adept at this stuff (some connected to Linux server) who's willing to assist me at your leisure? The person to whom I'd started these projects with, has "removed themselves from society" and I'm not afraid to admit that I need help with the digital end of things. Let me know if you're willing to assist, and we can definitely work something out. I'm only asking for those who're interested and able; as I'm not asking for voluntary work.

A reminder that the MUUG meeting will be this evening, both in person and online...

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting IN PERSON, on Tuesday, April 1st, at 7:30pm. Yes, that's the FIRST Tuesday of the month...

Programming With Closures

Unknown by many programmers, closures and first-class functions enable some pretty cool programming techniques that can make your code more maintainable. In a short presentation, Trevor Cordes will demonstrate what they are, how to use them, and explain why they can be desirable.

RTFM: The Return of /bin Diving!

Our first couple instalments of /bin Diving were a big success, so we'll do it again! Everyone in attendance will be encouraged to help Brad Vokey bumble about on the command line to figure out how to use a random /bin program.

April Door Prize

Along with our usual selection of e-books, Wyatt Zacharias has acquired for MUUG two Pi Zero W 2's along with two Pi SD cards for us to give away! One set was given away at the March meeting, and the other will be in April.

Where to find the Meeting: Fortress Software Inc., 350 Keewatin St -- Unit #2

We have a new in-person meeting location now! Brad Vokey has graciously let us use his work office for our next in-person meeting. The meeting room will be open by 7:00 pm, with the actual meeting starting at 7:30 pm. If driving, enter the lot using the most north east entrance and drive around to the south west corner of the building (see route in map detail on poster linked below). You can use any of the free, ample, and safe parking spots that say "reserved" in front of units #1 through #4 before entering unit #2. Bus stops #30814 and #30880 (route 77) are only 150 meters away. The last bus leaves for Polo Park at 10:15 pm and for Garden City at 10:31 pm. Logan Ave. bus routes #19, #26, and #27 are a 600 meter (8 minute) walk to the south.

For those unable or preferring not to attend in person, the meeting will also be available online, using BBB as usual. Stay tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which will be made available about a half hour before the meeting starts. (Reload the page if you don't see the link, or if there are issues with connecting.)

The group now holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the *first* Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend.
