Dask Demo Day 2023-04-20

[ncclementi]

When

Thursday, April 20th, at 10am US Central time (meeting invite below and also on the Dask calendar)

Context

I'd like to solicit 5-10 minute demos that show off ongoing or lesser-known work. I hope to have 3-5 of these during the meeting. Meetings will be recorded and advertised on social. Hopefully, this helps to educate folks on some of the great work people are up to.

If you're interested please respond to this issue with a brief (a couple sentences) description. If you have colleagues who you think should be interested please let them know. If you would like to present but not this month, check out the dates and signup for an upcoming one in this issue #307
