October will be a busy month for all of us, with a lot of great conferences and events happening back-to-back. We start the month off with an SF Python meetup in collaboration with PyLadies. Zach Musgrave will be presenting on performance profiling in production. Later this month, Scott Clark will be presenting on MOE for SF Machine Learning here at Yelp HQ too! If you’re not familiar with MOE, it’s our black box optimization engine to help you with real world metric optimization.

We’ll also be at Grace Hopper on October 8-10, StrataConf on October 15-17, and at HTML5DevConf on October 20-24. Michael Stoppelman will be presenting at StrataConf on Yelp’s Data Pipeline and Ken Struys will be presenting at HTML5DevConf on Scaling Selenium Testing at Yelp so make sure to catch both of those!
