Cyber-security tips: the heartbleed bug
The document provides cyber security tips to protect against threats like the Heartbleed bug. It recommends using Chromebleed to check if websites are safe and changing passwords on affected sites once they have been fixed. Strong passwords with letters and numbers are advised. Most banks were not impacted since they use proprietary security. Keeping antivirus software up to date with regular scans is also suggested.
Task runners + theming automating your workflow
Task runners like Grunt and Gulp can automate workflows like compiling, standardizing, mapping and minifying code. They can also handle tasks like linting, debugging, error handling, unit testing, live browser updating and aiding in production deployment. Using a task runner can save significant time when starting new projects by automating common setup and installation tasks in just a few seconds versus manual configuration. Common JavaScript task runners each have pros and cons for different use cases and levels of experience. It's best to leverage existing starter templates and boilerplates online rather than building workflows from scratch. Caveats include ensuring compatibility when collaborating or across different machines.

Preparing For The Flood. How Do You Conduct Load Testing To Ready Your WordPr...
So, Beyonce, unbeknownst to you, decides to wear your shirt. A paparazzi snaps her casually walking down Rodeo Drive with it.
Suddenly your site explodes and you’re getting angry emails from crazed Beyonce fans about not being able to access it.
What happened?! Was it the dreaded DDoS monster? Or did something even worse happen? You went viral…
When your WordPress site finally goes live, it’s likely that you’ve probably spent weeks or even months building, iterating and debating about it.
The last thing you’re thinking about is testing it.
But if you plan on succeeding on the most important days of your business and site, like a function room, you need to understand how many people can fit in it, otherwise you could be leaving thousands on the table when your site goes down.
Key Take-Away
============
This talk will cover a history of load testing, why it’s important, and a live demonstration with an open-source and free tool that everyone can access right now.

Facebook, Robert Johnson
Facebook has over 500 million active users, with half logging in every day. It processes over 4 trillion feed actions per day and caches over 2 trillion objects. Facebook has scaled to over 1 million active users per engineer, significantly more efficient than other large tech companies. To achieve this scale, Facebook relies on techniques like frequent small releases, dark launching of major changes, and shedding load during outages to maintain reliability as the site grows enormously.
Doing less
This document discusses how to do less work by automating repetitive tasks using tools like Xero, MailChimp, CapsuleCRM, APIs, and scripts. It argues that we should be lazier by asking at each repetitive task if it can be automated or made more efficient. Some examples given are automating bank reconciliations with Xero, sending mailing lists with MailChimp, keeping organized with CapsuleCRM, integrating systems with APIs, and automating website deployments with Capistrano scripts.
WordPress to Tumblr Transition
The author found that switching from WordPress to Tumblr was easy because WordPress had given them many issues and hindrances, whereas Tumblr had proven to be more efficient for their blog work. While WordPress was intimidating and took a long time to do basic tasks, Tumblr offered a cleaner interface where individual sections were easily found. Tumblr also made embedding content much simpler than WordPress, which required tutorials just to open the embed editor and failed to display most embedded material correctly. In conclusion, the author felt Tumblr was a better choice than WordPress for an efficient and powerful blog tool.

How to scale your applications ? - #bzhcamp
This document provides advice on how to scale applications from Quentin Adam, who handles app uptime at Clever Cloud. It discusses two approaches for scaling - scaling up with a single large instance or scaling out across many smaller instances. Scaling out is recommended by splitting processes and storage, using statelessness, trusting middleware, and an event broker to modularize the app. Common mistakes to avoid include using the file system as a database, memory as a database, or dark magic. The key is to make small, modular codebases and services that can scale independently.
Lets go to the background
This document discusses background operations in web applications including background sync, periodic background sync, and background fetch. Background sync allows sending data whenever the network is available, periodic background sync gives the feeling of constant connection to the server even when offline, and background fetch allows downloading content from the network without stopping when the network throttles or stops. These background operations help make the user experience less dependent on the network status.
How to prevent big disasters when updating WordPress
Your WordPress dashboard shows your theme and plugins require updating. Great! You click on that “Update now” button.... and a few seconds later your WordPress site shows a blank page (technically known as the “White Screen of Death”).
Or one day you check your emails and find out a message from a disappointed customer who cannot access your site because it is not working properly. Sure, you did nothing, didn’t you? You take a quick look and - PANIC :O - your WordPress website is all over the place, and everything looks broken indeed. What happened? Well, you can thank your hosting provider, who automatically updated your site...
What is a “WordPress update” actually? And what do plugin and theme updates mean?
What should you NOT do when an update is available?
Lots of questions there, we know how you feel!
Whether you’re a WordPress beginner, a seasoned developer or a website owner, this session will cover technical and non-technical aspects of WordPress updating - so that you don’t go making that same mistake again!
Iteratee and stream with Play2 scala
This document discusses managing streams with Iteratee and Play framework. It provides an example of using Iteratee to handle an HTTP request body stream by consuming it chunk by chunk to calculate a hash, without loading the entire body into memory. Iteratee allows streaming data to be processed in a modular way without blocking threads. The document encourages using the coupon code "tokyoscala" for free hosting on Clever Cloud.
Blogging in Business Sector
Blogging is a tool that allows one to share thoughts and information through an online journal or diary known as a blog. Starting a blog is easy as it only requires an email address and content to share. To get a blog off the ground successfully, one needs to develop a clear plan for what they want to achieve with their blog and identify passionate bloggers to manage it. Regular posting of at least 3 times per week with 150-300 words per post along with images, videos, and stories can help build return visitors and engagement over time.

How To Dramatically Speed Up Your Website Using A Caching Plugin
If you’re tired of having to wait for your website to load on your browser each and every single time, then your customers and clients are probably even more annoyed than you.
But, of course, they don’t have access to your website’s backend, so they can’t do anything about your site’s speed. They’re technically at your mercy if they choose to wait for your site to load.
However, chances are they’re going to just up and leave your site altogether, never to be seen again. No matter how good your content is and how awesome your products are, if your site is slow, then you’re going to get dismal conversion rates, if at all.
The question is, why would you subject your visitors to torturous waiting when they don’t have to?
The thing is there are plenty of ways you can follow to speed up your website – and web caching is probably one of the most important methods all webmasters should follow.
While those who’ve been building sites for a long time probably already know all about caching, a novice webmaster may feel overwhelmed.
Admittedly, web caching can be quite technical, and it is but normal to feel like a deer stuck in headlights!

Speed Up WordPress Websites - Part 1 - WordPress Cairo Meetup
Speeding up a WordPress site involves optimizing images, using a content delivery network (CDN) to improve load times, selecting fast hosting, and implementing caching. Page speed is important for user experience and retention - users leave sites that take over 4 seconds to load. Optimizing images reduces file sizes while maintaining quality. A CDN stores content on globally distributed servers to deliver pages faster. Caching saves page content for quick retrieval to improve load times.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

3 tips to make your Wordpress site faster
- 1. 3 tips to make your WordPress site faster Can't be arsed to read? There's a TLDR; at the end
- 2. Backup your Wordpress site https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one- wp-migration/ Use this plugin before you start, and back it up to a file.
- 3. Use Webp Google's image format that makes your images faster than a speeding bullet
- 4. Go get this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/webp-express/ If your site doesn't support any of the optimisation processes, you can use EWW optimiser for 99p (it's worth its weight in gold) If you get stuck, drop hello@roboto.studio a message
- 5. Optimise assets We're talking Gzipping all your code, collating all the javascript and making everything faster
- 6. Go get this plugin https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total- cache/ We're a big fan of this plugin, there's an endless amount of configuring you can do for your Wordpress installation. But we're going to assume you're a noobie so check the next slide
- 7. Thank you Tom Dupuis We were going to upload our own W3 Cache settings to handle all gzipping & caching... But Tom beat us to it Use the link below to download the W3 settings, this will make a huge di erence https://onlinemediamasters.com/w3-total-cache-settings/
- 8. Get better hosting Are you doing everything you can optimisation-wise and your site still sucks?
- 9. Sometimes optimisation doesn't cut it When we started dealing with hosting when we first started, we were wondering why our site was so slow (yes it was built in WordPress). We tried using a CDN, we optimised, we cached, we did everything. It turned out, the biggest issue was down to the host.
- 10. So we saved you the time We've had countless sleepless nights and a bunch of cash spent on crap hosting to find that Siteground was our favourite for the price. Don't get us wrong, it's not the right solution for an enterprise project (why are you using WordPress for enterprise?). But it's fast and it's cheap, and actual 24/7 support, yes really
- 11. TLDR; Back everything up first • Use webp - plugin below • https://wordpress.org/plugins/webp-express/ • W3 Cache + Tom is the • https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/ • https://onlinemediamasters.com/w3-total-cache-settings/ • Get better hosting • https://siteground.co.uk/go/robotoshill
