The document discusses best practices for submitting pull requests (PRs) for open source projects on GitHub. It explains that PRs allow for streamlined code review and merging compared to older methods like patches and mailing lists. Some tips include starting with small fixes, thoroughly testing changes, asking maintainers if anything is unclear, and being mindful of timezones when communicating with contributors in other parts of the world. Rejections may occur if a PR is out of scope or breaks compatibility. Dividing large work into separate, well-documented PRs helps maintainers review and approve changes.

/dev/fort: you can build it in a week @emwJames Aylett
Imagine a place with no distractions – no IM, no Twitter, in fact no internet access at all. Within, a dozen or more developers, designers, thinkers and doers. And a lot of a food. Now imagine that place is a fort. I talk about why anyone would want to go on holiday to do their day job, the bits of the internet we had to rebuild to work without the internet, and some tips you can use even when you don't have a fort.
My 15 minutes talk for the head conference, talking about reasons I found why we keep doing the same mistakes over and over again when developing for the web.
At PloneConf 2019 in Ferrara I had a feeling of realization, That I had a misconception of the current state of Plone and development. In talks at the conference I also have seen that others have the same problem, as we speak of very different things.
The overall question that raised is “What is Plone for you?” and what is the future of Plone.
For me Plone is a vision, to empower users. Volto caries this vision. Therefore I can only recommend to endorse Volto as the future of Plone.

Globo.com - migração do player flash para html5Leandro Moreira
Vamos apresentar a experiência de migrar o player da Globo.com, com seus 10 milhões de acessos diários, de Flash para tecnologias modernas da web – sem downtime. O player anterior tinha arquitetura monolítica que dificultava a manutenção e inclusão de novas features, além de enfrentar as limitações cada vez maiores sofridas pelo Flash. O novo player, construído com tecnologias modernas, incluindo HTML5, ECMAScript 6 e webpack, conta com arquitetura voltada à extensibilidade. Além disso, abrimos o código da maior parte do player, no projeto Clappr no Github.
Veremos, ainda, os principais desafios enfrentados:
Como isolar um componente (aparência e comportamento) entre milhares de páginas existentes;
Como fazer a troca em todos os produtos da Globo.com (Globoesporte, Gshow, G1, Techtudo, globoplay, globotv e outros), sem que os donos dos produtos tenham que fazer qualquer alteração;
Como suportar a maioria dos browsers e devices.
Finalmente vamos analisar o resultado desta migração: um player mais fácil de manter e evoluir, com tempo de inicialização de vídeo mais rápido, novas features e a inclusão da comunidade de desenvolvedores.
Introduction to node.js by Ran Mizrahi @ Reversim SummitRan Mizrahi
Node.js is a platform built on Chrome V8 javascript runtime engine for building fast and scalable, non-blocking, real-time and network applications. In this session I'll introduce you to node.js and developing large code bases using it. We'll cover the following aspects:
* What is node.js?
* Apache vs. Nginx performance (One thread per connection vs. event loop) and what it has to do with node.js.
* Why node was written in Javascript?
* Main tools and frameworks (Express, socket.io, mongoose etc.)
* TDD/BDD with node.js using mocha and Expect.js
Ran Mizrahi from CodeOasis gave a lecture about Angular.js dependency injections, as part of an advanced Angular meetup of the Javascript Israel meetup group.
Ran covered how Dependency Injection works in Angular and its internals, what are providers and the different helper methods angular have for defining injectables components.
We work together in teams, across divisions and with different companies. A lot of our productive work time is lost because information is kept in departments, on file servers or in peoples heads. With the trend to distributed organizations we need to communicate more effective.
This sessions shows how companies like Atlassian and Hubspot have encouraged their employees to live and breath a collaborative culture. I will talk about 4 things that helped us work happily together like building a great work environment, focusing on people instead of roles, using tools to communicate faster and more transparently and staying away from a command & control mentality. Collaboration creates greater value, enhances achievement, and produces sustainable business models. It’s time to move from the industrial age to the information age and start the collaboration revolution!

Agile Development Overview (with a bit about builds)David Benjamin
I gave this presentation to our dev team when i started at Hannan IT back in October. Its a quick run through the Agile basics, with a bit of extra discussion on continuous integration.
I experimented here with scripting in two tangential sections in the hopes that it would avoid many more spontaneous tangents. It worked!

Presentation done at the "CTO Crunch" event by France Digitale, Paris, 24/02/2015.
Based on his experience (VP Eng @ Digiplug, CTO @ Pixmania, VP Eng @ Criteo, CTO @ Aldebaran Robotics and now CTO @ Viadeo), Julien shares some hard-learned, bullshit-free lessons on what it means to be a CTO.
Hiring, Tools, Methodology, Technology, Politics: welcome to Hell :)
En puisant dans ses différentes expériences de direction technique (notamment chez Pixmania, Criteo et Viadeo), Julien Simon parlera des risques qui menacent les équipes et les plates-formes en forte croissance, en donnant au passage des pistes pour les anticiper et les résoudre.
Every problem in software development will need a good interaction among people to bring about a solution. Where there is excellent software we will find a team able to communicate proficiently. Social intelligence, communities of expertise, user groups and open source projects are the real engine powering our growth as developers day by day.
Leverage your best: the others.

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.

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.

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!
