SUMMARY:Engineering Leadership Roundtable: Understanding Your Candidate Pool
DESCRIPTION:When it comes to filling an open position\, keep in mind: You aren’t replacing Joe\, you’re hiring a developer. \nOftentimes\, when a long-term employee leaves their post\, hiring managers are stuck with the dilemma of finding a candidate who is prepared to pick right back up where the former employee left off. But this is unrealistic and unfair to potential candidates seeking to fill the position. \nHow can hiring managers narrow the scope of open positions and still draw in attractive and qualified applicants with upskilling potential? Let’s discuss at our upcoming Engineering Leadership Roundtable. \nRegister Now \nAgenda: \n8:30 AM – Check in\, network\, have breakfast \n9:00-10:00 AM – Open discussion

SUMMARY:The Metaverse Is Here\, Now — But The Future is Even Bigger
DESCRIPTION:The concept of the Metaverse — and the associated technologies — are seeing a huge uptick in awareness\, investment\, and presence in “top tech trends” list\, and with good reason. The Metaverse offers capabilities that transcend physical limitations and laws\, and thus offers the potential for transforming how we communicate\, play\, work\, learn\, and more. It has taken 30 years for technologies to catch up to the Metaverse envisioned by Neal Stephenson in “Snow Crash\,” but we’re seeing the first rich\, compelling multiverse environments be deployed and used now — and the future capabilities and uses will be tremendous as technology capabilities continue to advance exponentially and as Metaverse designers and developers gain experience and feedback. \nJoin us as we kick off “Metaverse May” in the Austin Forum as Hrish Lotlikar\, CEO and Founder of SuperWorld\, shares what the Metaverse is\, explains the key technologies\, and reveals why the Metaverse is so compelling and full of potential. Hrish will also share where he thinks the Metaverse is headed and how it will impact our lives and interactions. Finally\, Hrish will share why your company or organization should embrace the Metaverse\, and how you can learn more and start your journey into the Metaverse!

SUMMARY:Leadership Dinner: Unlocking Successful Benefits Communication

SUMMARY:Stabilizing and Decarbonizing the Texas Grid with Computation and Bitcoin
DESCRIPTION:Renewable carbon-neutral generation is now the least expensive means to produce electricity in the world. In West Texas alone\, we can produce terawatt-hours of power through wind turbines and solar panels. The question is no longer how do we generate sustainable energy\, but how do we leverage its power efficiently and economically. \nThis question is met with two challenges. One\, the wind does not always blow and the sun does not always shine. When this is the case\, energy costs rise. Two\, even if the sun is shining and the wind is blowing\, the best wind and solar sources are not near population centers and heavy industry. This results in terawatt-hours of inexpensive potential power unused. Computation\, specifically Bitcoin mining\, located in West Texas could address both of these issues as data centers would act as giant batteries and grid stabilizers\, soaking up power during times of excess generation\, and releasing it back out when renewable sources are limited\, thus stabilizing the grid. \nDuring this presentation\, we will cover electrical grid basics and how bitcoin mining can be used as a variable and controllable load to stabilize the grid\, thus making renewable energy generation more profitable and efficient. \nREGISTER NOW
