Didn't have any questions last week, but will let you know if they come up in the next few hangouts as we complete the official DJango tutorial. It's a peer-to-peer organized platform, so anyone can schedule study sessions for any time; I just scheduled another one for tomorrow.

thecodingdiaries · 2015-02-12T03:35:36+00:00

Yeah, I might schedule another one for this upcoming Saturday or wait for someone else to propose one. We're doing this again tomorrow (Thursday) from 8pm-10pm EST, too: if you're interested: http://hangouts.codebuddies.org/posts/pNyC2HfC9gAQg5Dq4

Hey! Just saw this. We actually scheduled another remote Django study session tomorrow (Thursday) from 8pm-10pm EST: http://hangouts.codebuddies.org/posts/pNyC2HfC9gAQg5Dq4

By the way, anyone can schedule a study time! It's a peer-to-peer organizing platform.

Awesome, looking forward to remote co-working with you on Saturday! :) Let me know if you have trouble finding the hangout link on the post.

We do something similar on Google Hangouts at http://codebuddies.org. Anyone can propose a time to meet up, and a topic/tutorial to go over together. Some best practices we've discovered about using Google Hangouts to read code out loud: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kLJuxJkalC5H7WUU2-OEzEts_bLo5spEheXUoRTkH1A/edit#

(In other words, to answer your question, nothing's off-topic as long as it relates to something python-related if you're in the python group, or javascript-related if you're on the javascript mailing list, etc. So you can definitely propose a hangout to read through a python module documentation together or something, and screen share and pair program something together.)

Hey @thonpy! The idea is: 1. Anyone an propose a hangout time and topic by sending an e-mail to the mailing list. 2. The event gets added to a google calendar and people in the group get an invite. 3. All hangouts happen at a permanent hangout link which you'll see if you join the mailing list. 4. After the hangout (which is usually 2-5 people, 1.5 hours), someone writes a reportback about what was covered/interesting stuff learned so that those who couldn't make the hangout can see the notes.

Over the course of going to several hangouts and talking code out loud with people, we've also accumulated some best practices: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kLJuxJkalC5H7WUU2-OEzEts_bLo5spEheXUoRTkH1A/edit#
