Code for America Brigade volunteers consider thousands of projects for local civic engagement and innovation apps; we build only a handful in each city. How can we choose better? A little intention could dramatically improve the quality of our project portfolios. I propose we score proposals across four dimensions:
- The value our products will produce. (More users, more usage, building capacity, leaving infrastructure behind)
- Risks of the journey (taking the right level of risks around customer clarity, effort & cost, tech difficulty, political risk)
- Alignment with our values
- Stakeholders engaged and affected
So Your Product Is Going To Die. Here's What Happens Next. Phil Wolff
Here's my walk-through of the generic product retirement project. Set up signals, choose death (or life), choose the shape of the project (how you're going to dispose of the body), plan, prepare, cutover, respond, and wrap things up.
The Things I Don't Know about Product Retirement Could Fill A Slide DeckPhil Wolff
My Ignorance On Display as a Research Agenda. There are millions of consumer apps to kill in the next few years. Perhaps that many enterprise apps too. We do a horrible job of shutting down systems well. It's typically a frenetic, last second, disorganized, incomplete, bridge-burning, costly, career limiting exercise. We don't talk about it and we have little data. I want to start a conversation about product death. In this deck I'm showing how little I know by asking you how to lead product retirement projects, how to design them, current practices, which forces drive success and which risks induce failure.

Johannes Ernst introduces the first Personal Clouds Community GatheringPhil Wolff
In San Francisco, 29 January 2013, one hundred people came together to talk about personal clouds. Johannes Ernst explained how personal clouds are to big web companies what personal computers were to mainframes. They both gave more personal control over terms, apps, and data.
What could kill NSTIC? A friendly threat assessment in 3 parts.Phil Wolff
At two events 18-months apart, teams of suits, geeks, and wonks (industry experts, technologists, public policy analysts) brainstormed and scored what could lead to failure of NSTIC, an international effort to create an identity ecosystem. The whitepaper at http://pde.cc/nsticrisks recaps the long list of potential threats, a shorter list of preventive strategies, compares the 2011 and 2012 events, and names the two greatest threats: poor user experience (harming trust, adoption, use) and imbalance among the forces tying the identity ecosystem together.
Rough deck for a flash talk for personal cloud designers, entrepreneurs, and investors at http://personalcloud1.eventbrite.com/. The PC-era protections of a personal computer you can hold in your hands or lock up in your home are gone as we move our software and data to personal clouds. We're renting instead of owning but we have no tenant protections. We should aspire to the trust placed on the relationship between doctors and patients, priests and penitents, lawyers and clients, and accountants and trustees. A fiduciary duty puts the "customer" first, even if it means harm to the service provider.
22 Ways Skype's Digital Identity System SucksPhil Wolff
Using Skype as an example, I deconstruct ways in which its user identity system doesn't fit the ways people think about themselves, present themselves in public, or interact in real life.
#Portability4Trust - Personal Data Portability for Trust FrameworksPhil Wolff
We're building on our Portability Policy work to make data portability standards and practices available in a form that the new trust frameworks can use.
The new landscape of realtime conversation is here. Skype, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Yahoo!, TokBox, Voxeo, Twilio and many others have divergent models. This talk lists some of the opportunities for convergence and interop, the benefits to operators, and questions about preconditions for this dialog.
The time frames for responding to the real time web are so short we need new tools to beat the clock. We need the Anticipatory Web. Predictive analytics are a start but we must use available technologies to act preemptively, faster than instantly. Think Thiotimoline fast.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
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!
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
EComm2008 Program
1.
2. Welcome.
We’re honored that you joined us at for the first eComm
conference. In doing so you’ve joined history in the
making.
This community finds itself—quite suddenly—in a new
world of more open opportunity. Open handsets, open
networks and open telecom platforms lend themselves
to innovation in the worlds garages and bedrooms. And
the signs are promising. Within the last 12 months many
important events have occurred. First Apple released
the iPhone, a phone running their computer operating
system; a high school kid then spent the summer
cracking the platform, hacking iPhones went critical,
and finally Apple itself was forced to “blink”, resulting
with the release of an SDK.
The FCC stated that the next big block of spectrum would only be
auctioned to an open network and Google announced first that it was
willing to spend billions to create universal access through wireless
spectrum. Then Google announced Android, a new open phone
operating system; T-Mobile and Sprint joined the Open Handset Alliance;
and even Verizon and AT&T made PR releases about becoming open
networks.
We believe a new era requires a new kind of conference. Previous
industry talking to the industry type events have yielded nothing save
consensual hallucinations. The gap between what telecom operators are
doing (or allowing) and what the innovation community COULD do, and
where end users are taking us is widening fast.
Communications innovation is being democratized. The winners will be
those who embrace it.
So welcome to eComm 2008. Let’s all create an Emerging
Communications Community capable of rethinking the trillion dollar
industry together!
