SUMMARY:Portland Accessibility and User Experience Meetup (PDX A11Y UX) - Alt Text is the Ocean You Thought Was a Pond
DESCRIPTION:#### Topic\n\nWriting proper alt text is hard. But it doesn’t have to be. There’s a minimum standard and an advanced approach. People who need alt text will appreciate you for the former and love you for the latter. Alt text is also a whole lot more than the `alt` attribute. That’s just one of the many ways to make content accessible. In fact\, there are a number of considerations for writing great alt text.\n\nIn this presentation\, Mark Wyner will help you understand the spectrum of options so you can take good care of your audience. We’ll walk through implementation methods\, phonetics\, composition\, complex sources\, and tackling social media.\n\nLet’s give screen readers and other assistive technologies something to *talk* about.\n\n#### Agenda\n\nThe event begins at 6 pm; join early\, starting at 5:45 pm for networking.\n\n* 5:45 Networking\n* 6:00 Introductions and announcements\n* 6:15 Presentation\n* 6:45 Q&A and discussion\n\n#### About the presenter\n\n(https://markwyner.com/) is an autodidactic polymath with over two decades of experience in design and development. His approach prioritizes usability\, accessibility\, and inclusivity. He’s also an antifascist humanitarian. So diversity and equity are overarching principles for everything he does in this space. Currently\, as the Lead Product Designer at BookNook. His pronouns are he/him/his. You can follow him on Mastodon or his accessibility writings on his website.\n\n#### Accommodation requests\n\nIf you have any accommodation requests\, don’t hesitate to contact us before the event to discuss.\nTags: User Research\, a11y\, accessibility\, accessibility lawsuits\, accessible technology\, accessible web design\, disability\, human rights\, inclusive design\, meetup:event=314591176\, meetup:group=Portland-Accessibility-and-User-Experience-Meetup\, mobile user experience\, screen reader\, structured negotiation\, technology\, universal design\, usability\, user experience\, wcag\, web accessibility\, web design\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482556

SUMMARY:PNSQC May Meetup: From the PMI Floor - an honest conversation on AI
DESCRIPTION:Please register on either Meetup (https://www.meetup.com/pnw-software-quality-professionals-pnsqc/events/314648123/) or Luma (https://luma.com/60m4kgqw) so we can count attendance!\n\nConverge with your fellow software professionals this May at Steeplejack on NE Broadway!\n\nWhat are project managers actually saying about AI\, quality\, and delivery — and what does it mean for us in QA? Jahzeel Ormeño\, Founder and Principal Consultant of SimplexityPM\, is bringing the conversation from the PMI Portland Annual Conference straight to our Meetup with her informal talk "From the PMI Conference Floor: What the PM World Is Saying About Quality\, AI\, and Getting Work Done Right".\n\nJahzeel is excited to debrief her experience from the conference with an honest conversation about what PMs are actually talking about: where AI is showing up (and where it isn’t)\, what else dominated the room\, and how the PM practices most of us take for granted connect directly to software quality outcomes. Come ready to share what you’re seeing on your end too — the best part will be comparing notes.\n\nYou don’t need to be a PM to get something out of this. It’s a good fit if you’re curious about any of the following:\n• What PMs and quality folks have in common (and where they still talk past each other)\n• How AI is actually landing in delivery teams — beyond the hype\n• Which PM habits quietly prevent quality problems before they start\n• Continuing the conversations from PMI Portland 2026\n\nThis will be a hybrid meetup\, so mingle in person or tune in online. Doors (and virtual lobby) open at 6pm for a half hour of pre-talk networking.\n\nSchedule:\n\n6pm – 6:30pm Networking (online included)\n6:30pm – 7:30pm ‎Open discussion led by Jahzeel\n\n(While free to attend\, food and drinks from the delicious Steeplejack menu will not be covered.)\nTags: pm\, pmi\, project management\, agile\, AI\, automation\, engineer\, leadership\, networking\, process\, qa\, quality assurance\, software\, software quality\, software testing\, tech\, technologies\, technology\, test\, testing\, tooling\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482573

As these technologies move from research into everyday use\, they are reshaping how engineers\, scientists\, and organizations approach design\, analysis\, and decision-making.  Across disciplines\, our researchers are translating complex information into practical decisions — improving systems\, informing design\, strengthening infrastructure\, and expanding what’s possible through thoughtful application of emerging technologies.
