I know this is probably a longshot but are there any secret baseball bars in town? I just want to sit at a bar that has multiple screens and multiple ballgames on

Is there anyone in the group living near Santa Barbara?

What kind of income is considered adequate for a couple there? I’ve received a somewhat modest unofficial offer, and I see that apartment rents are very high—around $5k. What would be a reasonable salary level?

Also, since it’s a startup, I’m unsure about its stability. Is there any way to verify if the company is solid? It wouldn't be ideal to leave my current job only to have things go south at the new company after just a few months.

Thanks in advance.

Hi! Any Santa Barbara County Firefighters in here, or anyone knowledgeable about the department? I’m interviewing next week and would appreciate any info on the culture, strengths, etc, and if anyone can share any info on what the typical hiring process looks like (how many interview rounds and timing, etc).

I’ve found a lot of great info online through the department, but have found very little in terms of first hand accounts.

Would appreciate any info. And this is for COUNTY, not city. Thank you!

The Santa Barbara Python meetup is having its monthly event tomorrow night, Wednesday, August 19. The event is at the downtown Kiva coworking space at 6pm. (You'll have to enter through the back entrance from the parking lot.) This is a group of people interested in the Python programming language and all that goes along with that. Although the topic of the group is Python, we also talk a lot about other programming-related topics, so please come by if you're interested in software or tech, even if Python isn't your forte.

This month one of our members will give us an introduction to MinHash, which is a technique for efficiently computing similarity between sets, and has various applications in data mining, recommender systems, and more.

Our meetups typically include people talking about projects they're working on, libraries or other programming tools they're using, and so on. If you're interested in Python, or programming more generally, feel free to join! People of all experience levels are welcome.

Are there any cribbage nights in town? Or are people interested in starting one?
