SUMMARY:Searching for Meaning: Finding the right path for search and infras
 tructure
DESCRIPTION:We will be having two speakers this evening - Rob Hirschfeld & 
 Max Bell.\n\nFood sponsored by Planview!! (Thanks Carrie Russell & team!)\
 nhttps://www.planview.com/\n\nTitle\n=====\n(Trigger Warning) What is Infr
 astructure as Code?\n\nAbstract\n========\nDiscussion with the group about
  What is Infrastructure as Code starting from the work that we've been doi
 ng in the Digital Rebar project. Digital Rebar is a good starting point be
 cause we've done some unique composable\, immutable and code-driven config
 uration that's designed to create repeatable multi-datacenter automation. 
 The talk will focus on the principles and then show what they look like im
 plemented. Also\, talk about lessons learned that lead to the design.\n\nB

 ====\nWhy does search still suck? Consider crowdsourcing it.\n\nAbstract\n
 ========\nHave you ever noticed that the user interface of last resort for
  almost everything is the search box? If so you have probably also noticed
  that the results often disappoint. Why is that? Max Bell will spend some 
 time showing you examples of how searches can be so hard to get right even
  for large well-funded organizations. Then Max will suggest and demonstrat
 e a better way through some simple machine learning feedback that allows u
 sers to teach a search system how to boost the ranking of things they find
  more appealing automatically so the next user won't have to dig for the s
 ame item. Max works for Lucidworks\, the commercial sponsor of the Apache 
 Solr search engine project. Lucidworks helps the largest organizations in 
 the world better solve their biggest data problems to gain insight.\n\nBIO
 \n===\nMax enjoys working with people using computers to gain insight in s
 cience\, education\, government\, and business. So plotting orbital soluti
 ons using Vax timeshare terminals at UT Austin was fun for him. He claims 
 virtualization and containerization are just fancy chroot so don't ask if 
 you don't have time. Also\, try to avoid discussing aviation since he taug
 ht people to fly upside down for a living. He's determined to show the nex
 t generation how to do more with less. Once a year he drags his wife Monik
 a and their 3 children\, Kira\, Imogene and Murray up mountains and across
  deserts insisting over their objections that its quality family time.\n\n
