The need for queer analyses and perspectives has taken on a new sense of urgency in light of hostile antiqueer policies by major technology companies, the security theater of airports, the disproportionate rates of policing queer people and people of color, digital surveillance in border security, and the proliferation of digital health records.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details has-border-color has-neve-link-color-border-color has-nv-light-bg-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:2px;padding-top:5px;padding-right:5px;padding-bottom:5px;padding-left:5px\"><summary><strong>Introduction to APIs &amp; Web Scraping for Research Data Collection<\/strong> &#8211; Feb 13 @ 12:00 EST<\/summary>\n<p>Tuesday February 13th, 12 &#8211; 1pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 is-style-primary\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ameeting_NTcyOTI4ZjUtN2JhMi00OWJkLWJlZDktOGU5YzE0YzlkM2E5%40thread.v2\/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2276ae1115-1efc-4af2-a536-e2b2443af1a0%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%2206b87724-b1bf-449f-b862-87ad41b57e43%22%7d\" style=\"border-radius:100px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Join Session<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Open up whole new avenues of data collection for your research.

Do you want to be able to transfer all the complexity inherent in production CIP systems into an accessible environment designed to facilitate teaching and development? Stop searching and discover Magic Castle!<br>Magic Castle is open-source software that replicates the CIP infrastructure experience through community or commercial cloud resources. It&#8217;s easy to use and runs in just a few minutes. Once Magic Castle is running, the user has access to a complete computing cluster software environment including the scheduler, a data transfer node, JupyterHub and thousands of scientific software compiled by the experts of the Digital Research Alliance from Canada. Since its inception in 2018, Magic Castle has been used for thousands of workshops and tutorials around the world.<br>During this presentation, we will present the architecture and general functioning of Magic Castle.

Data, perilous and powerful, is both a worldmaking and a dismantling force. The collection of data about queer lives and bodies, the consequences of data analysis for queer subjects, and considerations of privacy and consent often present ethical dilemmas even as queer data expands our understanding of who and what counts. The need for queer analyses and perspectives has taken on a new sense of urgency in light of hostile antiqueer policies by major technology companies, the security theater of airports, the disproportionate rates of policing queer people and people of color, digital surveillance in border security, and the proliferation of digital health records.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>February 13th<\/summary>\n<details class=\"wp-block-details has-border-color has-neve-link-color-border-color has-nv-light-bg-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:2px;padding-top:5px;padding-right:5px;padding-bottom:5px;padding-left:5px\"><summary><strong>Magic Castle: Your Personal Supercomputer in the Clouds<\/strong> &#8211; Feb 13 @ 10:00 EST (15:00 UTC) [Partenariat des biblioth\u00e8ques universitaires du Qu\u00e9bec]<\/summary>\n<p>Tuesday February 13, 2024, 11 a.m. &#8211; 12 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 is-style-primary\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/pbuq.libcal.com\/event\/3780236\" style=\"border-radius:100px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you new to the world of edge computing (IPC)?

You will come away with multiple additional introductory tutorials to try for yourself, based on which tool is right for you.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details has-border-color has-neve-link-color-border-color has-nv-light-bg-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:2px;padding-top:5px;padding-right:5px;padding-bottom:5px;padding-left:5px\"><summary>&nbsp;<strong>Data Diversi-Tea Talk (Session 2)<\/strong> &#8211; Feb 13 @ 13:00 EST (18:00 UTC) [University of Waterloo]<\/summary>\n<p>Tuesday February 13, 1 \u2013 2 PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 is-style-primary\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/uwaterloo.ca\/library\/events\/data-diversi-tea-talk-sipping-insights-diverse-data-journeys-0\" style=\"border-radius:100px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you want to learn more about different types of data and what it\u2019s like to work with them?
