Orange County, Southern California - Delphi user group

[Jim Hunter](https://www.facebook.com/groups/137012246341854/user/747589392/

Hi, I am one of the organizers for the Orange County Delphi Users Group in So Cal. We are always looking for presenters at our monthly meetings. We are still virtual and have no plans on changing that right now, so as long as the 7pm PST time works for you (the 4th Wed of each month), we would love to have you share your cool projects with our group. PM me if you would be interested in presenting at one of our upcoming meetings.

We don’t do C++Builder, just Delphi and Delphi related stuff like using JavaScript on your Delphi generated web page. Or tuning your database for the best Delphi performance, mobile development, etc. Our group loves to learn new things and trends, but I don’t think anyone has interest in C++ though. 🙁

FYI, I think we are now the longest continuously running Delphi Users Group in the US, possibly the world. We started just a couple of months after Delphi was released. We are trying to get our numbers back up. Back in the day, we had meetings with over 100 attendees! Sadly, we don’t get that any more, so we are trying to reach out and get fresh content to bring attendance back up.

"This month, on 6/28, we will have two speakers. First we will have Jim Ferguson with a general talk on Delphi development, and the second will be a presentation by Andrea Raimondi about how iOS offers the best ROI among mobile platforms in the West, but onboarding can be really expensive, unless you play it smart (and I will tell you how).

The meeting starts at 7pm California time and will last for about 2 hours.
You must RSVP on Meetup in order to get the link to the meeting. This meeting is 100% online and will be recorded."

"This month, on July 26th, Jim Ferguson will be discussing using polygon.io to to feed data to ChatGPT.
Polygon.io is a historical stock market data warehouse where you can get real time and historical stock market data. Jim has written a very sophisticated stock market tool for assisting in analyzing stock market data in Delphi and it is lightning fast. But then again, isn’t everything written in Delphi lighting fast? :slight_smile:

The meeting starts at 7pm PST and will last for about 2 hours.

You must RSVP in order to get the link to join."

Next meeting is today? Tomorrow?
@Geoff @davidn might know?

Meetup with Orange County Delphi User Group:

Ok it’s 10am Thursday in Perth. 8am Eastern states.

The Meetup phone app, at least, really screws up dates and times sometimes - which seems suboptimal for a meeting app. :no_mouth:

Adding for historical accuracy.
The above meeting did not occur as there was a published date confusion. It was moved.
And I was insufficiently on the ball to announce the below one in time …

Using TClientDataset and DataSnap to share data, and TFDMemTable use.

The Orange County Delphi Users Group invites you to attend this months meeting. It will be Wed evening at 7pm PST. This month we will have 2 speakers, one talking about using TClientDataset and DataSnap to distribute data, and the other talking about doing the same using TFDMemTable over REST. Everyone is invited, you must RSVP in order to get the link for the meeting. See you there.

Google calendar tells me it’s 11am WA time

[ Today ] [ Edit : Sorry. Wednesday night their time. Thursday daytime for us. ]

Adjusted for timezones elsewhere in Oz.

I tell you what. The Meetup app and website is badly tested for adjusting days and times across timezones. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

Topic is TBA

We are always looking for speakers. If there is something that you are working on, or a project you finished that you would like to share with everyone, let us know. You don’t have to fill the full 2 hours, whatever you have is fine. Reply and let us know what you would like to present to the group

[Edit : oh. meeting now cancelled. ] :confused:

From the DMVC fb group …

Jim Hunter :

“The Orange County Delphi Users Group has a meeting next Wed evening and we are looking for an expert to present on DMVCFramework. It is a 2 hour meeting and we would like the presenter to use up the entire time. I personally have been using it but have only scratched the surface as to what it can do so I would love a presentation by someone that is an expert with it. Is there anyone that would like to present?”

Wed evening (perhaps Thursday for many), the Orange County Delphi Users Group is going to have our monthly meeting at 7pm PST.

We will be having a round table discussion about the user of ChatGPT to enhance your development. If you currently don’t use it then this would be a great meeting to learn how it can better your life. If you are using it, come share your tips and tricks on how you have mastered ChatGPT to increase your productivity.

You must RSVP to get the link to attend. See you there!
