This document discusses different methods for profiling Perl code, including general code profilers that record timing data by line, subroutine, or source file, as well as domain-specific profilers. It highlights Devel::NYTProf as the new preferred option, noting its improved accuracy over Devel::DProf due to fixing a timing issue, its ability to perform block-level profiling which was a Perl first, and its convenient and useful output format. However, it also mentions that Devel::NYTProf still has issues with recursion calls that need to be addressed.

Presented by Kevin Pettitt and Bruce Elgort at the Irish Lotus User Group conference in Dublin, June 2008.
If you think the only application templates available for IBM Lotus Notes and Domino are the ones that are bundled with it (and even if you already know better) it's time you learned more about the many excellent free and open source Lotus Notes and Domino templates and where they come from. Join us for a fast-paced look at some of the best templates from OpenNTF.org, trade publications, bloggers, and other little known sources. While its easy to build your own applications in Lotus Notes, its even easier, and usually more rewarding, to build on top of someone else's. Whether you're a developer, admin, or both, you'll come away from this session ready to put these templates into action to become more productive, make your job easier, and impress your boss.
Retooling the world wide web for its original purposesingingfish
This document discusses the history and evolution of the World Wide Web from its origins to modern times. It focuses on the author's experiences developing various web applications and sites over time using different tools and frameworks, and the lessons learned around community, technical challenges, and prioritizing usability. Key frameworks and projects discussed include Maypole, Catalyst, Scoop, and Zotero.
The document discusses 7 sins of software engineers in high energy physics (HEP) projects. It describes each sin with an observation, problem it causes, and proposed solution. The sins are: being too reliant on tools, writing code before designing, flawed processes, reinventing wheels, making software functional but not usable, documentation paralysis, and resistance to change. The document advocates automating work, designing before coding, minimal necessary processes, reusing code, prioritizing usability, automatically generating documentation, and adapting to change.
[Workshop] Analyzing Your Deliverables: Developing the Optimal Documentation ...Scott Abel
Presented by Nicki Bleiel at Documentation and Training LIfe Sciences, June 23-26, 2008 in Indianapolis.
Documentation deliverables have evolved beyond manuals and online help in recent years, and with the emergence of Web 2.0, things are changing faster than ever. Technical communicators have many more options to enhance the user experience, and developing many of them provide the opportunity to work with other departments to find a more holistic approach to content development and delivery. But there is no one-size-fits-all set of solutions. This workshop will review the types of analysis you need to do to determine which deliverables are right for your project, your customer, and your company.
Other factors that can’t be ignored, such as translation needs, staff/time constraints, file size limitations, corporate image and control, and proprietary concerns will also be discussed, including:
Analyzing the Product
* Intended audience; delivery method (desktop, web application, etc.); competitor offerings; software development methodology. The UI as part of the Help system. Product Management expectations.
Identifying User Wants and Needs
* Preferences and expectations for information; work environment; knowledge and experience levels.
Ascertaining Internal Needs and Opportunities
* Working with Training, Support, and Marketing to reduce duplication and provide the user with consistent, useful information.
* Finding ways to incorporate information from other departments to improve documentation.
Accessing Deliverable Options
* What is the optimum mix for the product?
* The traditional: online help, manuals, embedded help, job aids, forums, web sites, technical support knowledgebases.
* Emerging trends: wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, software demonstrations, podcasts, and other collaborative tools. They can supplement and/or enhance the traditional. Or, they may be a better fit for internal knowledge management or marketing use.
Optimizing the Library
* Single-sourcing; best practices for structuring information; continuous publishing

The Django community is not short of ideas that could be added to Django's core repository. Some of these ideas are great, and are just waiting for the right implementation or the attention of a core developer. Other ideas are just not going to happen.
However, it's may not always be obvious why an idea has been rejected by the core team. This talk will attempt explain the reasoning behind a couple of specific decisions. More broadly, this talk will aims to provide more general guidance on the decision making process behind the decisions made by the Django core team.
Kill Your Darlings: Solving Design by Throwing Away Your Prototypesjsokohl
Wireframing has held sway over UXers for the past 20 years. From its metaphoric origins in filmmaking to its pinnacle in countless UX books, wireframing stood as a key approach in defining both structure & interaction. In recent years, however, wireframing has come under attack. UX thinkers propose replacing wireframes with sketches and prototypes; yet we need to understand that bridge between idea and specification.

A living hell - lessons learned in eight years of parsing real estate data lokku
The document summarizes the challenges faced by Nestoria in processing real estate listings data from various sources. It discusses issues like inconsistent and changing data formats, poor data quality, lack of unique identifiers, and misaligned incentives between Nestoria and its data partners. Despite the garbage in, Nestoria aims to turn it into something useful through extensive testing, embracing UNIX principles, and focusing on cultural rather than just technical problems.
This document summarizes a company's experience providing location-based search services using proprietary geocoding software. The company has 8+ years of experience indexing millions of properties daily and returning search results across 8 countries and 6 languages. It geocodes data using open sources like OpenStreetMap and then matches user search queries to relevant listings based on coordinates. This involves handling ambiguous, incomplete or incorrect data as well as cultural and linguistic differences across countries.
Nestoria is a property search engine that indexes millions of properties every day. Since mid 2006 the product has evolved into a service must run on multiple devices and browsers. In this talk I introduce Nestoria New Design and the context in which this project was born, and discuss some of the challenges our company has faced during the project. This talk was presented as part of the Commercial Computing Lecture Series at the University of Birmingham.
CSS::SpriteMaker is a Perl module that allows you to create CSS Image Sprites. A CSS Image sprite is an image containing smaller images, plus a CSS stylesheet that allows the browser to render each smaller image. In this talk I present CSS::SpriteMaker by example, covering its advanced layouts and features.
CSS::SpriteMaker is a Perl module that allows users to combine multiple images into a single sprite image and generate corresponding CSS code. It aims to provide a native Perl solution for creating CSS sprites without relying on other languages. The module implements different layout algorithms to organize images in the sprite and allows users to generate sprites from the command line or integrate it into their applications. Future plans include adding more layouts, tests, abstracting the imaging and stylesheet generation, and a binary for command line usage.

A description of our experiences trying to use OpenStreetMap data at Nestoria, the difficulties we faced and how hey formed our motivations for starting OpenCage Data, a new service to make custom data extraction simple and affordable http://opencagedata.com
A brief overview of some of the technical options evaluated in our switch to OpenStreetMap maps. Presented on 16th of February, 2012 at London Geomob event: http://geomobldn.org
Geocoding is the process of finding geographic coordinates from other data like addresses or zip codes. There are many remote geocoding services that can be used through an API but they have different formats, limits, and concepts of precision. Geo::Coder::Many provides a single interface to query multiple geocoding services and intelligently handles caching, failover, and common use cases. The code example shows how to create a Geo::Coder::Many object, add different geocoding services to it, set filters and pickers, and perform a geocoding request.

We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
