A few of us liked the idea of meeting up to work on the homework and lab assignments together. This would be after work on a day and place that works for most people. We could have a few groups if days work for different people.

My suggestion would be to start this Thursday. I am up to meeting almost anywhere with wifi.

Who would like to meet this Thursday?
Thoughts on location?

Thanks!
Heather

I am free on Thursday. One possible location is the Panera near the intersection of Rte. 18 and Cleveland-Massilon road. They have a big back room that most customers don't go to. I've used that room for other meetups and it works well. And of course I'll always recommend the Nervous Dog. Not only is it an awesome coffee shop but it's near my house! :-)

I can meet on Thursday. Anywhere is fine with me on 18. Would just need to know what time and where.

thanks

Rick

I wouldn't mind meeting up to work on the homework. Unfortunately this
Thursday is not good for me. Wednesdays and Thursdays are the two worst
days of the week for me. I'll be working on the 3rd [Defining Functions]
homework assignment this weekend.

Thursday works for me this week. I'll throw in a vote for the Nervous Dog.. as long as they don't have someone there performing.

I would also like to go to the infamous Nervous Dog.

What time works best for everyone?

@grantwinney

I get off work at 5, could probably be there by 5:30 or so. Or later. It's right in the path of my way home, so I could easily stop there for a bit if a little later works for everyone.

Nervous dog sounds good to me as well. I'll shoot for around 530ish

@vht-hfenton I'll stop by the Dog on the way home and check on their schedule for Thursday night. @grantwinney is correct--we don't want to go there if a band is playing.

@jdantonio Thank you for checking out Nervous Dog for tomorrow. Backup plan: meet at the Panera on RT 18 near Cleveland-Massilon road if Nervous Dog has a band playing.

@rpottsoh We can rotate days if another day works for everyone else. What days can everyone meetup?

I would have to say Thursdays is the only day that works best for me. That certainly shouldn't prevent everyone from meeting on another day though. =)

Wednesdays usually conflict with my son's cub scout activities during the fall, winter, and early spring. My wife has activities she likes to do on Thursdays so that day is no good.

Barnes and Noble (in montrose area on 18) is another location to consider; has wifi.

Whatever everyone decides is fine with me, if I can make it I will.

Would a Hangout work for people who need to be home but are still roughly
available help?

I'm all over the place depending on if I'm in Pittsburgh during the day or
different Meetups that are happening, so build it and I will come when I
can :) Thursdays and Mondays are typically best. I am not averse to Sunday
afternoon either.

I'm told there will be no band on Thursday and we should be good for a study group.

Great, thanks for checking Jerry.

I hope we are at the right nervous dog. Rick and I are at the Akron Nervous Dog.

Which one are you at?

I'm at the one at 4161 Steels Pointe in Stow. There's more than one? Uh, oh. lol

Now I see it - 1530 W Market St, Akron, OH 44313. Ugh.

Thank you @vht-hfenton for organizing tonight! I feel much better about completing the course now that we've knocked out two more homework assignments and a graded lab.

@rickbacci

That was a great learning experience. Thank you all :)

I enjoyed it too. Even more-so once I found the right place! Thanks for
stepping through everything so logically Jerry.. it helped in understanding
each of the problems.

We made awesome progress last night! Thanks @rickbacci , @grantwinney and @jdantonio for meeting up, talking through problems and knocking out the homework and lab assignments! (I drove home through blizzard-like conditions with 0 visibility but made it home safe. ❄️ )

@krantzinator I think a Hangout would definitely work! What does everyone else think?

In the mean time, I am up for getting together again next Thursday. Anyone else available next Thursday? (We could also do a Hangout for those who can't make it.)

I won't be able to make it next Thurs but I'd be up for trying the hangout.

I will be out of town all next week. :-(

It doesn't matter to me. That place had awesome pumpkin spice, but whatever works for most people.

@jdantonio Thanks for telling us about the back road too...way quicker than going back down 18.

Just remembered my Friendsgiving is this Thursday. Any chance we could do
Monday this week? I'd also be up for Monday of Thanksgiving week.

@rickbacci @rpottsoh @krantzinator I encourage you to meetup or do a hangout as I will not be able to meet on Mondays. I look forward to hearing the progress you made!

Anyone else able to meet tonight with the group?

@rickbacci and @krantzinator how far have you progressed on the homework? I am through HW3 and its lab. I still need to watch the lecture for HW4…. I live in the Fairlawn/Bath area. A Hangout session is fine too.

I'm still on W2, so I probably won't be of much use. Sorry, work has been
straight 16 hour days for a while. But I guess that's life, yeah?
