Location

ThoughtWorks' Chicago office
651 West Washington Blvd., 6th floor
Chicago, IL 60661
Location description:
"6 story, brick building on the Southwest corner of Washington Blvd. and
Desplaines St."
"Right next to the 90/94 freeway"
"Across the street from the Social Security building"
* Map <http://tinyurl.com/mgcxo>
* "Official" info <http://www.thoughtwork s.com/chicagoInfo.htm l>
Call jason at 3 1 2 - 3 7 3 . 8 5 5 6 if you get locked out or lost.
(The external doors should be open, but be sure to enter on the "east"
side (Desplaines)
Street (meter) parking is available in the area. Shoot for "free" (no
meters) parking on the South side of the building if you're lucky. And
be sure to feed those meters; Brother Leader Daley collects tons of cash
from meter fines in this area. Garage parking is also available across
the street (technically across the interstate) at the very tall
SkyBridge condo building.
1) The closest "L" stop is Clinton on the "Green Line". (About an 8
minute walk from TW.)
2) The closest Metra station is the Ogilvie Transportation Center (in
the Citibank Building) 2 blocks east of TW. (a 4 minute walk)
3) The closest water taxi stop is at Madison Street Bridge at 2 North
Riverside Plaza. (<http://www.wendellariv erbus.com/rbdock.htm>) ;-)
4) I can't find good info on the nearest helipad. Sorry, Mr. Trump.
5) Besides garage parking at SkyBridge across the freeway and meter
parking around the building, there is additional garage parking at the
Presidential Towers at Jefferson & Madison. There are 2 non-garage
parking lots adjacent to our building. (I don't know the lots' "after
5pm" parking rules, though). Theme: If you're addicted to oil, there
are lots of parking options within a short walk.

=============
Paul Prescod will lead a discussion about the Python Virtual Machine.
How does the Python Virtual Machine work internally? What are
bytecodes? How is code compiled to bytecodes? How are bytecodes
interpreted? How are types implemented? What do classes look like
inside the Python interpreter?

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
