The document describes MOBL, a programming language for building mobile web applications. MOBL aims to provide a small core language with large and extensible libraries. It includes built-in types, controls, and abstraction mechanisms like screens and functions. The language exposes low-level primitives while providing a native interface to external APIs. MOBL code can be deployed by concatenating, eliminating dead code, and minifying for client-side execution on mobile browsers. The language has been publicly released since January 2011 and sees over 1,000 visitors per day, with ongoing development focused on error handling, data evolution, documentation and libraries.
From java to kotlin beyond alt+shift+cmd+k - Droidcon italyFabio Collini
Kotlin is a first-class language for Android development since Google I/O 2017. And it’s here to stay!
Thanks to Android Studio it’s really easy to introduce Kotlin in an existing project, the configuration is trivial and then we can convert Java classes to Kotlin using a Alt+Shift+Cmd+K. But the new syntax is the just beginning, using Kotlin we can improve our code making it more readable and simpler to write.
In this talk we’ll see how to use some Kotlin features (for example data classes, collections, coroutines and delegates) to simplify Android development comparing the code with the equivalent “modern” Java code. It’s not fair to compare Kotlin code with plain Java 6 code so the Java examples will use lambdas and some external libraries like RxJava and AutoValue.

Async code on kotlin: rx java or/and coroutines - Kotlin Night TurinFabio Collini
It’s never easy to write async code but luckily there are many libraries to manage asynchronicity without adding too much complexity. In the last years RxJava and the other ReactiveX libraries have been very popular but lately there is a new way to manage async code in Kotlin: the coroutines. In this talk we’ll pros and cons of there two approaches and how to leverage them to simplify asynchronous code on Android.
Do they solve the same problem? Can we use them together? Which one can be used to write functional code? How can we use them effectively in Android development?
Spoiler alert: They are both great!
In this talk we’ll see how to solve common problems using RxJava or Coroutines, starting from basic concepts (for example the Retrofit support and how to cancel a task) to some more advanced (like threading, error management and how to combine multiple tasks).
All example of the talk are available on this repository:

Groovy erfreut sich immer größerer Beliebtheit. Viele "grüne Wiese Projekte" werden damit und vor allem mit dem darauf aufsetzenden Grails Framework realisiert. Will man Groovy in einem bereits existierenden Java-Projekt verwenden bedeutet das nicht automatisch, dass das Projekt dazu grundlegend umgestellt werden muss. Insbesondere im Bereich der funktionalen Tests kann Groovy relativ problemlos integriert werden. Der Vortrag zeigt am Beispiel einer existierenden JSF-Anwendung wie diese mit Hilfe von Groovy und den Frameworks Spock und Geb automatisiert getestet werden kann.

Avoiding JavaScript Pitfalls Through Tree Huggingzefhemel
Slides of the talk given at MeetJS Summit (http://summit.meetjs.pl). The TreeHugger playground can be found here: http://ajaxorg.github.com/treehugger/test.html
Intermediate languages are used in compiler construction to simplify retargeting compilers to multiple machine architectures. In the implementation of \emph{domain-specific languages} (DSLs), compilers typically generate high-level source code, rather than low-level machine instructions. DSL compilers target a software platform, i.e. a programming language with a set of libraries, deployable on one or more operating systems. DSLs enable targeting \emph{multiple} software platforms if its abstractions are platform independent. While transformations from DSL to each targeted platform are often conceptually very similar, there is little reuse between transformations due to syntactic and API differences of the target platforms, making supporting multiple platforms expensive. In this paper, we discuss the design and implementation of PIL, a Platform Independent Language, an intermediate language providing a layer of abstraction between DSL and target platform code, abstracting from syntactic and API differences between platforms, thereby removing the need for platform-specific transformations. We discuss the use of PIL in an implemementation of WebDSL, a DSL for building web applications.
jQuery & 10,000 Global Functions: Working with Legacy JavaScriptGuy Royse
Long ago, in the late days of the first Internet boom, before jQuery, before Underscore, before Angular, there was a web application built by a large corporation. This application was written as a server-side application using server-side technology like Java or PHP. A tiny seed of JavaScript was added to some of the pages of this application to give it a little sizzle.
Over the ages, this tiny bit of JavaScript grew like kudzu. Most of it was embedded in the HTML in

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

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.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
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.
