Zoom Meeting Invite

#280

Our last demo day was a great success #282 ! https://youtu.be/VlTgcLqb1DQ

If anything, presentations were too good. This time we'd like to lower the bar and make things more casual. Can anyone help?

When

Thursday, November 17th, at 10am US Central time (meeting invite will be posted here later)

Context

I'd like to solicit 5-10 minute demos that show off ongoing or lesser known work. I hope to have 3-5 of these during the meeting. Meetings will be recorded and advertised on social. Hopefully this helps to educate folks on some of the great work people are up to.

If you're interested please respond to this issue with a brief (a couple sentences) description. If you have colleagues who you think should be interested please let them know.

I can present on visualizing a 8-year 2-billion + row dataframe of lightning flashes over the US with CUDA/RAPIDS-AI/Dask/Datashader, thanks to a lot of en(light)e(ning) help from @bdice and @rjzamora!

Native integration with Dask was just added to Optuna. I'm happy to give a demo if there's time

Cool. I'll add you at the end.

I've updated the original comment with Zoom meeting invite details. I've also made this recurring so that it should be the same going forwards. I'm also editing the Dask Google Calendar to have a recurring event there.

@rrpelgrim how long do you think it would take you to repurpose this into a blogpost for blog.dask.org. Worth doing?

@mrocklin

Worth doing?

Mostly I mean to ask "is this the kind of content that we think would be of value?" I know that historically we've pushed out a lot of stuff on Coiled that seemed like it would be interesting, but ultimately wasn't. I'd love your critical point of view here.

There's some excellent content here that we should definitely repurpose. A single blog summarising all the demos doesn't make much sense from an SEO perspective but it may get some traffic by publishing on social channels. It's a relatively quick exercise (1-2 hours) so worth a shot and then we can reevaluate for next month.

Additionally I think we should these two things which I think will have more impact:

  1. create 30s video snippets of each demo and push those to social channels with a link to the full YT rec. That gives us a week of meaningful social content (1 a day). @mrdanjlund77 can you run with this?
  2. potentially more involved: create a dask/demo-day repository and have folks upload their demo notebooks there and link to the repo in the YT recording description. This will give folks a chance to try stuff out themselves. This will also become an impressive log of Dask development as we have more and more Demo Days accumulate. Caveat: this obviously depends on folks who gave the demos feeling comfortable sharing those notebooks. How do folks feel about this? @jrbourbeau @ktyle @douglasdavis @gjoseph92

for point (2): In general I don't have a strong opinion on this and I would be happy to have what I put together in some repo (especially because it's already reproducible by anyone who watches the video). But if the repo is created, I think we should have a clear note in the README about the casualness/low-bar of demo day, so it's possible for any of the notebooks to be relatively rough (or maybe not work out-of-the-box) in comparison to a lot of advertised notebooks that are uploaded to official project channels. (I know a lot of folk's personal accounts are filled with rough notebooks, but people might have higher expectations for notebooks hosted by a project). I really like the theme of demo day being unpolished!

Would love to not only share the notebook but do so in a reproducible manner ... but the NLDN dataset is proprietary. I could see a scenario where a small subset could be shared, but that makes the necessity of a distributed Dask workflow less apparent.
