Join our panelists who are part of a growing movement of non-profits working to change the discussion among women and minorities to learn more about their programs, what lessons they are learning about working with these groups, how they are helping to teach organizations to create diverse talent and potentially, how you can help solve this issue.
Caryl Rivers and Rosalind C. Barnett have received wide critical praise for their books about women, men, work and society. Hear as they analyze the tech field in terms of gender.
This talk will discuss the problems faced in the modern data center, and how a set of innovative open source tooling can be used to tame the rising complexity curve. Join me on an adventure with Vagrant, Consul, and Terraform as we take your data center from chaos to control.
Social engineers use a dangerous combination of technology and old-fashioned con artistry to infiltrate organizations every day. In this talk we’ll walk through the social engineering process including research, target selection, attack selection, and attack execution.
In this talk we will walk through key aspects of Evangelism and different strategies SendGrid has used and currently uses to reach these developers and turn them into friends who become customers.
In this talk, Benjamin Hindman (one of the original creators of the Apache Mesos project) will discuss Apache Mesos and how it can be used to more easily build and run distributed systems.
Bluetooth Smart, or Bluetooth Low Energy devices are everywhere. We’ll look at how to discover, connect to, and control these devices with software. You’ll learn how Bluetooth LE works and understand profiles, services, and characteristics. I’ll demonstrate writing Android and iOS Bluetooth apps using Apache Cordova.
Massively concurrent systems are the future, and shared data mutability is the obstacle to getting there. Where does that leave imperative languages like Java, that depend on mutation?
In this talk, Ash Furrow, author and iOS engineer at Artsy, presents the current state of Apple’s new programming language: Swift. He’ll begin with a description of why Swift was needed – what problems existed with Objective-C and how does Swift address them? Speaking from experience of developing a production application using Swift, Ash will discuss Swift’s readiness from both technical and business standpoints.
Our approach to programming for the past 50+ years has mostly focused on specific features of a programming language. The result has been an emphasis on “general purpose” programming languages. The next 10 million programs will not be built this way. We don’t have the time. We don’t have the money. And we can’t afford to fail as we have been.
