Can't sleep? Stay up all night coding? Or can't make the usual meetups till the kids are in bed?

Late Night Coders is a meetup for the rest of us.

Let's get together and share what we're working on, co-work, or get help on any problems we're running into. Some code challenge keeping you up? Bring it to us!

Anyone is welcome at any experience or sleep-deprivation level. Bring your laptop! Or just come hang out with cool people.

Turned off guest options, bring whoever is interested in coming.

Join me for the first meetup! I’ll be picking a leetcode problem, where we have 30 minutes to individually solve it - and then presenting a solution. Others will have time to present theirs as well. Location to be announced!

IN PERSON ONLY. NO VIRTUAL OPTION. Come on out, network, and learn something!

Join us for another great meeting! Come at 6pm to network and have conversations with fellow attendees. The meeting presentation starts around 6:15 pm.

Tales From the Trenches – Why Organizations Struggle to get OT Visibility & Detection Right

Whether it’s due to increasing awareness or due to Board/Compliance requirements, most OT Security programs start with a preliminary risk assessment. One of the initial steps is to get a list of OT assets, which used to be a rudimentary spreadsheet exercise. With the wide availability of passive OT asset discovery tools, many go down that path via a Proof of Concept to generate Asset Inventory.

This talk focused on lessons learnt from the trenches performing the proof of concepts and covers challenges including availability of infrastructure (span ports/tap, routing, bandwidth), archaic protocol implementations, organizational policies for network flows, risk appetite for active probing on low traffic networks, OT & IT personnel knowledge of each other’s domains, and finally budgeting.

Abstract:
Hexagonal architecture is an architectural pattern designed to create loosely coupled application components that can seamlessly connect to their software environment using ports and adapters. This approach makes components interchangeable at any level and facilitates test automation, offering a robust alternative to the traditional layered architecture. In hexagonal architecture, each component communicates with others through well-defined "ports," following a specified interface to ensure loose coupling and flexibility.

Screaming architecture, a concept introduced by Robert Martin (Uncle Bob), emphasizes that a software system’s structure should clearly communicate its purpose. Much like a building blueprint reveals the function of a structure, a well-designed software architecture should make its intent immediately apparent.

In this talk, we will briefly explore both hexagonal and screaming architecture patterns, then dive into code to see how these concepts can be applied to a modern .NET codebase. Additionally, we will discuss how these architectural principles can assist in planning and estimating work more effectively.

IN PERSON MEETING!!!!!
You hear a lot in the tech media about the movement to open source databases to reduce the overall cost of applications. Sure databases like PostgreSQL and DuckDB do specific things well, but they do have tradeoffs. In this session you will learn about when it can be a good idea to choose an open-source database for your application, but you will also learn about some of the features that make SQL Server (and all of the related Azure services) stand out ahead of the “free” open-source databases.

Do you work with technology or for a tech company? Do you speak geek? Come network with other technology industry workers for a casual, conversational happy hour.
