In February join us at DeskLodge for talks about Autowiring and how to create neural networks in PHP.
This month's talks are:
- Autowiring
Mike Oram
When learning modern PHP frameworks, the term autowiring crops up quite a bit. In this talk we will explore what autowiring is and how it is used. We will look at the mechanics of a framework such as DI, Factories and DIC before looking at how autowiring fits in and how it really works.
- Introduction to neural networks with php
Michael Bush
Join me in a step by step walkthrough as I scratch the surface and build a neural network in php. This talk is for people who are unfamiliar with neural networks and want to learn more, developers who have developed a neural network in the past might find this talk very basic.
Afterwards we'll head to the pub, probably the Volunteer Tavern (http://volunteertavern.co.uk/real-ales)!

Your first time coming to PHPSW? Welcome!
Here's how the evening tends to run:
* Feel free to turn up from 6:30pm.
* We'll have pizza and a selection of soft drinks & alcoholic drinks available from about 6:45pm, all free of charge thanks to our sponsors. It's a great chance to speak to people (we're a friendly bunch!) and do a bit of networking. Just speak to an organiser if you'd like an introduction to people, or just dive in and say "hello!".
* At 7pm, we'll do a quick welcome talk and some community announcements
* At ~7:10pm we'll have our first talk
* After our first talk, there's a small break whilst we switch over speakers
* At ~8:10pm We have our second talk
* We finish at ~9pm. We always go for a drink somewhere afterwards to discuss the talks and anything else that takes your fancy.
