Let Grunt do the work, focus on the fun! [Open Web Camp 2013]Dirk Ginader
Google’s Dirk Ginader thinks great developers are lazy, and there’s nothing wrong with that. After all, would you rather spend your time working on the mundane stuff — like minification, linting, compilation, unit testing, etc — or actually developing your code?
In this presentation, Dirk will show you how to set up the Grunt JavaScript Task Runner so that you and your team can focus on the fun!
Gentle introduction to Pyramid. Where it comes from, how simple it, how fast, how flexible and why the future will be pyramid shaped.

These slides show an approach on how to build a backend ready AngularJS app, when the backend is not yet available, using the tools AngularJS provide for E2E testing.
Of course, this is something that can be achieved also with a Node.js (or any other language) mock server, but it has the advantage that just by running your angularJS app, the mock server is also running, so in the case of a hybrid app, for example, you can send an APK to somebody to try your app (with mocked data), without the need to deploy your mock server to set it available on the cloud.

Using Buildout, GenericSetup and a Policy Package to Rule the WorldClayton Parker
So you have your code on the filesystem and you are using buildout;
what's next? You can take your build to the next level by reducing the
amount of manual steps needed to create and maintain your site. Using
collective.recipe.plonesite, you can ensure that every member of your
team is working on an identical Plone site at any given time.
Without the plonesite recipe, when you run your buildout for the first
time, you are left with an empty Zope site. This talk will show you how
to utilize buildout to create a Plone site for you and make sure it is
all set up via a policy package and GenericSetup so you can hit the
ground running.

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).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

70. 2. Custom User Model ?
Pros
-You don’t need a user profile model
- Faster, as you don’t have to refer to profiles as foreign
keys.
- More flexibility
Wednesday, June 19, 13
71. 2. Custom User Model ?
Cons
- might break contrib.admin
- might break old apps
- might break stuffs tied to user (like permission) if
custom model is not implemented correctly.
Wednesday, June 19, 13
72. 2. Custom User Model ?
Conclusion
-Yes, if you’re just extending the user model. If you
inherit from AbstractUser, you should be fine.
- No, if you want to override existing fields or
functions. Unless you know what you’re doing, you
might end up breaking compatibility with other apps.
Wednesday, June 19, 13
73. 2. Custom User Model ?
Implementation
- Add to settings.py, AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'myuser.MyModel'.
