Inside Koho we have a tech reading group.
It is attended by software engineers, data scientists, and product developers.
This document lists out the material we have covered.
Participation in Koho's tech reading group is voluntary.
Although everyone technical is encouraged to participate, they can choose not to. (And some choose not to.)
Those who choose to participate can use time during work to do the reading.
(If they want to do any reading at home too, great. But they also get time at work.)
The meeting, for Koho's tech reading group, happens during regular office hours, while at work.
The cadence is, we meet every 4 weeks to discuss the reading.
The point of the meeting is to give comments, ask questions, complain :-) or whatever, about the reading.
Every other meeting, the reading will be voted on. (To keep things fun and interesting.)
Which means every other reading won't be voted on. (And is something chosen by the organizer.)
