In this workshop, we will learn to create 3D CAD models in a tools like Solidworks, AutoCAD, and Fusion 360 which incorporate our expectations about how those models will function in the real world. We will discuss how to use parameterized geometry to connect what we see on the screen to what we want to fabricate and use. In addition to using standard CAD tools, workshop participants will use an experimental CAD tool created by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University.

This workshop is recommended for anyone with previous 3D modeling and/or fabrication experience who want to get more out of there 3D modeling experience. We will specifically be working with Autodesk Fusion 360 and request that all participants have this installed prior to the workshop. Installation is available here: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/free-trial and recommended tutorials can be found here: http://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/. Participants should bring a personal laptop (PC or Mac) to the workshop.

Presented by Megan Hofmann Where: iLab @ UH Manoa Building 37 When: Tuesday August 15th @ 6pm

RSVP: Here

Megan Hoffman

Megan Hofmann is a visiting researcher from the Human Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Her research explores maker culture and the development of CAD tools that enable “expert-amateurs” to create 3D models to augment their world. Her previous work has explored the intersection of 3D Printing and Assistive Technology design, such as customized prosthetic arms. Her current work has two directions. First, she is developing tools that relate parameterized geometric design to a programmatic design structure, with the goal of creating verifiable and functional 3D models in less iterations. A tangential research project is in collaboration with Disney Research to create a tool for parameterized generative sweater and knitted garment design.

Do you have a domain? More than one? If so, you’ll fit right in at DOTCOM, a new discussion and support group for domain hoarders collectors.

We also welcome people who would like to get started. If you’re curious what this is all about, come for the intro session at 5:30, and we can help you buy your first domain, or answer any questions you may have.

At 6:30, we’ll have a short talk about domains, and then circle up to do fast-paced introductions of domains we have had ideas for. Whether you hope to restart a project, find a good home for a domain, or just make us laugh, be ready to say a little bit about your own when it appears in the slides. We hope you’ll stay for the refreshments, too, and make a new connection or two.

To participate, please RSVP on Eventbrite and submit your list of up to 5 domain names. Feel free to send up to one image for each domain/group of domains to rsvp@domainnight.com if that would help explain it, and we’ll add that to your slide.

Parking Tips: There’s a great municipal lot (single level, well lit) on the left side of Beretania just after Nuuanu, and also usually plenty of street parking. Look for the Loading Zone signs (most are ok after 4pm) and spots on Bethel (mauka of Merchant) that switch from being tow-away at 5:30pm.

Writing Asynchronous code in JavaScript can often times be confusing. JavaScript callbacks allow you to handle concurrency by offering to run a function at the end of another function with the return values of the previous function. But callbacks come with a few downsides. The code needs to be well thought out for it to be easy to read. Nested callback often lead to highly indented and hard to read code and pushes novice developers into spaghetti code. It’s the most controversial feature in JavaScript.

Promises to the rescue! Or is it? It’s a new feature in ES6, or the next version of JavaScript, and will be hitting evergreen browsers soon. Promises is a new tool that allows developers to replace callbacks with a thenable. What’s a thenable? Come to the talk and find out!

I’ll also cover how to use it now rather than wait till all the browsers adopt it.

How to keep the flow of control within one function while reaching out to many others.

How to convert code (and whole libraries) from callbacks to promises and back.

How to keep your code tidy with Promises.

Finally, advanced tips and tricks with Promises.

James Wang will be giving a talk on Go this coming Thursday!

Go is an exciting programming language that is aimed to replace C in many ways. From groundbreaking benchmarks to Erlang-like concurrency focused language constructs make it one of the go to languages for code that demand performance.

From Go’s Documentation:

The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more productive.

Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It’s a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.

The agenda for this talk is as follows:

• Environment Setup
• Getting Started: Simple Programs and Algorithms
• Concurrency & Design Patterns
• Tools and Projects written in Go

Golang links:

• https://golang.org
• https://github.com/golang/go
