SFS board-member Anthony Sayre and his CTO Dusty Smith will be presenting at Denver DevOps meetup on Feb 13th: 

## Fear of the unknown in DevOps – Brain dump of lessons from ASG’s Elastic Journey 

You know how technology often solves one problem…. But then creates new entirely unexpected problems? 

Emerging platforms like the Elastic Stack can help manage modern complex IT environments but the this law of unintended consequences definitely applies here...

# SFS EVENTS @ CODE 

## Hacking Hours 

The Software Freedom School is hosting Hacking Hours this weekend! 

We get together from time to time just to work on our side projects. If you feel like joining us, bring your side project down and lets all work on it together!

Saturday, February 9, 2019 
8:00 AM to 4:00 PM 
At the Comfy Room 


## Intro To DevOps 

We'll use Linux, Bash, Git, Gitlab, Docker, and AWS to create minimum viable DevOps continuous integration pipelines on our laptops. This class is based on content created by Aaron Brown, systems engineer and VP of DevOps at Flowhub.com. Aaron will be on-hand for questions and discussion. 

Also some talk about learning through community, collaboration, and the concept of teaching others as learning/career development. 

Saturday, February 16th 
9AM - 5PM MST 
at Code Talent 

[RSVP Here!](https://www.meetup.com/sofreeus/events/257482237/) 

## AGHI2 GitLab and GitLab.com 

During this gentle, hands-on introduction to GitLab 
We'll create pretend products (probably cheese sandwiches or pies). 
We'll create product teams. 
We'll iterate on our pretend products so quickly that our BitBucket/GitHub using competition will be driven into financial distress and then we will poach their developers. Muhhahah! 
And a whole lot more.... 

Saturday, May 4th 
9AM - 1PM MST 
at Code Talent
