The Completely Series - (P.M.) Ohio State University Field Shoot

Meet at Panera Bread, 300 W. Lane Ave and we will walk over to the campus together to look for some cool shots. These events on the schedule are to serve three purposes: 1. These will serve as field shoots targeted at The Completely Series homework. Generally, each of these shoots will focus on the homework assigned in the two prior weeks. So locations and topics will be picked to match those expectations. 2. Additionally, these events are to serve as placeholders for TIME OF DAY. They are intended to be modified as needed to capture SUNSET and/or EVENING light. They will likely be modified to time out for the IDEAL light on that day, at that location. EXPECT THEM TO BE MODIFIED as the time of year changes and/or schedule conflicts occur. But THERE WILL BE at least one evening shoot per month. 3. Lastly, they are also to serve as semi-monthly evening shoots for the group as a whole. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE IN THE COMPLETELY SERIES to attend any of these morning field shoots. Locations and specifics will be updated as the event date approaches.

(P.M.) Field Shoot (House Taco - Post Shoot Social)

We'll walk over to House Taco for good food and good times! Opportunity to gather post-meeting, tell stories (mostly lies), ask questions about burning photography/post-production issues, and ponder the future of our country and planet. Oh, and food... Location and time to be determined based on the specifics of the shoot immediately preceding this event.

Bill shock? Cost savings beginner to expert

Cloud costs can grow fast... and can you leave you shocked when the bill comes. In this session, Technologist Karinne Bessette shares practical, real‑world techniques for reducing Cloud spend by up to 40% while maintaining performance and reliability. This session walks from foundational concepts like monitoring to advanced optimization patterns. Here are some concepts we have to share: \- Where AWS and Azure costs quietly creep in and how to stop them \- When VPC endpoints meaningfully reduce data transfer spend \- How Spot instances and Karpenter work together for savings ... and more.

Nailed It! - DIY Meetup

Grab a drink or some food and get to know each other. Our last event went really well and I’m excited to build on that. I’d love to meet everyone and hear if there’s anything you like to get out of the group. Last we talk there was interest in helping each other on projects and building network of folks where we can all share knowledge. Bring pictures of your current projects if you have any! Looking forward to seeing you all!

COhPy Monthly Meeting

**Improving Office in Franklinton** Physical location: Improving Office 330 Rush Alley Suite #150 Columbus, OH 43215 Schedule: 6:00 p.m.: Socialize, eat, and drink. Improving will be providing pizza and beverages. 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Main meeting and presentation(s). Topic: In this session, we will explore the concept of hyperdimensional computing (HDC), a brain-inspired method of computing. We'll begin by talking about neurons and the brain. Through simple Python examples we’ll dive into HDC and answer: What it is? How does it work? And, how does it learn? We will review how other researchers have applied HDC and demonstrate how it can be used for solving cybersecurity tasks. Where deep learning fails, HDC excels. No supercomputer? No problem. HDC offers interpretability, low energy requirements, robustness to errors, online learning, on-device learning, and more. By pushing the difficult calculations into the embedding process, learning becomes a cinch. By the end of this talk, attendees will have everything they need to teach their own hyperdimensional computing models. We meet on the last Monday of each Month. Presentations are given by members and friends of this group. If you would like to do a presentation (small or large) on a python topic, please contact Central OH Python at centralohpython@gmail.com
