The document discusses balancing design and development in front-end work. It addresses stereotypes between designers and developers, and describes front-end developers as "midfielders" who ensure designers get credit and backend developers can focus on their work. The document also covers topics like web standards, accessibility, version control systems, frameworks, team dynamics and more.

Hacking the Creative Brain - Devoxx Belgium, 2014Denise Jacobs
As tech professionals, what we need is a way to work better so that we can create more, right? Through exploring various concepts and approaches, including the neuroscience of creativity, productivity techniques, and emerging practices that spur innovation, we'll discover not only the ways in which our brains work best, but also what’s behind the times when we feel on fire with creativity and when we don't. We’ll translate this information into processes and techniques for dramatically enhanced creative productivity. Beware: this session challenges the standard norms around concentration, focus, productivity, and may change how you work…for the better.
The Creativity Imperative - NDC London 2014Denise Jacobs
Success for companies is now dependent upon creativity and innovation, both hailed as the most important contributors to the growth of the economy. These days, these skills are not just a good idea, but are imperative. Unfortunately, most don't know where to start in order to structure an environment where creativity and innovation can thrive. Good news: laying the foundation for inspiring creativity and enhancing innovation is easier than you think. Discover the four directives to follow that will help to enhance engagement, reignite passion, and amp up meaningful contribution, and enable you, your team, and your company to develop fantastic products and services.
White Space Creativity - Frontend Conference CH 2014Denise Jacobs
In visual arts and graphic design, white space is fundamental to allowing a creation to exist, by creating delineation and focus. Similarly, in our lives, creativity often sprouts from the "white space" of time: the moments in our increasingly busy schedules between activities and thoughts that allow the subconscious to better absorb and connect information. Clearly, in order to be more creative, we need to open up this "in-between" space in our lives, but once we've done so, how can we best capitalize upon the brain's natural creative capacities? In this talk, we'll explore several counter-intuitive and potentially subversive methods for leveraging this "white space" to foment innovative thinking creative productivity.
Banish Your Inner Critic: Transform Self-Talk and Own Your Expertise - UX Hus...Denise Jacobs
The Inner Critic is the main source of our biggest blocks to perform at our best. Fortunately, there are simple and effective ways to banish the inner critic in order to do our best work as contributors, collaborators, and leaders.
First, you’ll discover the three mental power tools that you already possess to stop the inner critic in its tracks. Then you’ll learn methods for dealing with the fear of being judged and criticized, how to transform highly critical self-talk into that of approval and encouragement, and ways to feel like your ideas are good enough and stop committing “ideacide.”
By the end, you’ll have a roadmap of how to get unstuck, do your best work, and channel your creativity as a force for positive change in the world.
Banish Your Inner Critic - MakingWeb.no 2016Denise Jacobs
Your inner critic is an unconscious deterrent that stands between the seeds of great ideas and the fruits of achievement, keeping you stuck by telling you you’re just faking it, that others have more talent, that you’ll never achieve the success you seek. Let's discover how to anatomize this pernicious inner force, and then learn techniques to banish this critic so that you can have the mental space and energy to let your true talents emerge -- and help you be a badass with your work.

Fractal compression is a lossy compression method for digital images, based on fractals. The method is best suited for textures and natural images, relying on the fact that parts of an image often resemble other parts of the same image.[citation needed] Fractal algorithms convert these parts into mathematical data called "fractal codes" which are used to recreate the encoded image.

A talk given at the Computer Science Department, Newcastle University. The talk focusses on the problems involved in capturing information from experimental science and proposes the development of tools that capture data and metadata through the experimentalist constructing a narrative.
This presentation looks at "web2" in the context of human experience, suggesting that the social web as extension of "real life" means that it transcends the marketing-biased, "numbered web" hype that has typically surrounded it.
The slides focus particularly on the use of "social web" tools in the enterprise.

Some I have yet to annotate. For some reason this presentation would not upload here when I attempted to share it shortly after I gave it and I was laboring under the mistaken notion it was too large. I have no idea what actually happened and it is my fault it's taken me so long to provide it.

Digital Ethnography For Social Interaction Design [Remix]Brynn Evans
I gave this talk at Bolt|Peters' User Research Friday. The talk covers the challenges for studying online communities, or what I refer to as "social interaction design". Social interaction design is relevant for anyone who is developing a social product. Whether for iPhone apps, Twitter knock-offs, recipe management software, online shopping services, or even Wrigley's gum, there are social motivators that drive many user behaviors. Unfortunately, it's not so easy to "shadow" someone’s day-to-day activities in a digital space like you can in a physical space, which is why needs-finding for social interaction design requires a new set of tools and methods. I'll talk about a few remote research tools that can be used to understand the design opportunities in social spaces.
Sometimes making choices in our career paths is difficult. Wouldn't it be helpful to have guidelines to help us make decisions that open up your options rather than shut them down? Discover how choosing creativity, a growth mindset, finding your Flow, and being a Maker puts you on the path of having infinite possibilities in your career, creating a clear path to a future where you can not only be awesome, but also do meaningful work.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

balancing in between offense and defense.
We ensure that designers get the glory, and the
server-side guys can stick to what they do best.
10. “Inverse, Multi-Headed Hydra”
In the world of web-development,
there are many “dragons” sharing
the same public facade: ASP.NET,
ColdFusion, Java, Perl, PHP, Ruby,
Python, etc. To render in a browser,
all data has to pass through HTML.
Front-end isn’t a bad place to be. :)

14. In order to keep
pace with change:
We really need
Interoperability
15. Web Standards
= 3 legged stool:
• HTML
• CSS
• JavaScript
Accessibility
falls flat if any of
these three are
done incorrectly.
16. Aaron
Scheidies
World Class
Triathlete
Aaron recently received
his Doctorate of Physical
Therapy from University
of Washington.
He is a world record
holder amongst Olympic
distance triathletes.
17. Aaron was born with a
juvenile form of macular
degeneration called
Stargardt’s disease. His
vision is 20/400 vision,
while people with full
sight see 20/20.
Aaron is pictured here
setting a world record
with Ben Collins. They
rode a tandem bicycle,
ran and swam tethered.
He finished in 01:58:08 at
Dallas, TX on 10/14/07.
19. Jeremy Keith – JS Expert
“Far from being something that is added to
a site, accessibility is something we need to
ensure isn’t removed. From that
perspective, the phrase ‘making a site
accessible’ isn’t accurate...”
“Accessibility is not a plug-in. It’s not
something that can be bolted onto a site
after the fact. So here’s what I’m proposing:
From now on, instead of talking about
making a site accessible, I’m going to talk
about keeping a site accessible. Join me.”

26. As the CS3 product cycle was
wrapping up, Adobe's user interface
designers started showing their ideas
for subsequent releases... I think my
initial reaction can be boiled down to
three letters: WTF? quot;Are you telling
me,quot; I asked, quot;that we're going to put
a huge, battleship-gray box into the
background on the Mac, as it is on
Windows? Why would we do that?quot;

35. Several years ago in
Yakima, Washington
there was a church split
over whether to use
organ music in worship.
Ironically, those who
left to start a new
church now have a far
more extravagant
organ than the original
congregation ever did.
They remain divided.

36. Mark Boulton: Designing by Community?
“Designing by community I feel is different.
There are a lot of people in the Drupal
community. Many hundreds with a strong
Text
voice. Providing very early releases—in
fact, opening up the process completely—
draws reaction. Within that reaction, if
there is enough of it, we can identify
trends. And I think trends in feedback is
the key to Designing by Community.”
38. Stephen P. Anderson
Why I’m Not a Manager
“When you have the
right people on your
team, what qualifies as
management is really
about creating a
platform from which
everyone can track
themselves. That, and
f i g u r i n g o u t h ow to
challenge folks so that
they are delivering their
best. This assumes a lot
of trust and faith in their
abilities, and not in your
ability to hand-hold.”

43. ENTJ - “I’m really sorry you have to die.”
ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct.
This may be expressed with the charm and finesse of a
world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult leader.
The ENTJ requires little encouragement to make a
plan. One ENTJ put it this way... quot;I make these little
plans that really don't have any importance to anyone
else, and then feel compelled to carry them out.quot;
While quot;compelledquot; may not describe ENTJs as a group,
nevertheless the bent to plan creatively and to make
those plans reality is a common theme for NJ types.

44. I think of the ideal web team
as operating much like the
Ninja Turtles. Each one is
dangerous in his own right,
but together under the right
leadership become more
than the sum of their parts.
“At least half of the team
members should be senior-
level in their area of
expertise. The functions of a
web team can be categorized
into five specialist groups:
Design, Client-Side, Server-
Side, Content, and Support.”

46. Can’t Be Afraid
to Slide Tackle
http://tinyurl.com/slide-tackle
50. A moment before firing, two
members of the gun crew
ceased all activity and came
to attention for a three-
second interval extending
throughout the discharge of
the gun. He summoned up an
o l d co l o n e l o f a r t i l l e r y,
showed him the pictures,
and pointed out the strange
behavior… “Ah,” he said
when the performance was
over, “I have it. They are
holding the horses.”

56. “Embrace Constraints”
css
– Mark Kraemer
All modern monitors support at
least 1024×768 pixel resolution.
960 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32,
40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160,
192, 240, 320 and 480.
57. The 960 Grid System is an effort to streamline
web development by providing commonly used
dimensions, based on a width of 960 pixels.
There are two variants: 12 and 16 columns,
which can be used separately or in tandem.
58. The basis of the grid is ideally suited to rapid
prototyping, but it would work equally well
for workflow in a production environment.
There are printable sketch sheets, Photoshop
and Fireworks templates, and a CSS framework
that contain identical column measurements.
63. The 12 column grid is divided into portions
that are 60 pixels wide, whereas the 16
column grid consists 40 pixel increments.
Each column has 10 pixels of margin to either
side, which stack to create gutters that are
20 pixels wide between each of the columns.
72. Summation of Presentation
•Strive to write elegant code.
•Slide-tackle when necessary.
•Choose the right framework.
•Know thy personality type.
•Train an “inverted-T” skill-set.
•Be passionate + pragmatic.
73. That’s a wrap. Keep in touch!
