The document outlines an agile development approach called LED that focuses on launching a minimum viable product quickly with limited resources. It will involve 4 two-week sprints with a small team of 1 designer, 1 developer, and 1 tester to iterate on the design based on user feedback and prioritize only the most important features. The goal is to get something launched fast and then refine it over repeated development cycles.

Overview
Examining our responsibility as creators to design for disconnection.
The “restore connection” alert isn’t just for devices– it applies to people too. And it’s more important now than ever before.
Digital creators, we need to talk. The rise in mental health as a result of situational stress is a prevailing theme in today’s society, and some of the products we’re building are the root cause. But we have the power to change this. As creators of digital products, how might we enable our users to be more present in their lives? How might we invest in features like Instagram’s activity timer, despite the fact that they’re fundamentally counterintuitive to the usage metrics most behemoth tech companies are driving towards?
We have a responsibility as creators of digital products to enable others to disconnect …and re-connect with themselves, physically and mentally. This intersection is an emerging category Andrea likes to call digital health, and it’s something we can create together.
Objective
To share actionable strategies, principles and considerations for designing with digital health top of mind. Andrea will get into some #realtalk about how we can collectively create more balance and presence for the humans using our products.
Target Audience
Designers and digital creators of all kinds – especially those building digital products at scale!
Level
Open to audience members of any skill level (this is a more high-level talk)
Five Things Audience Members Will Learn

TalkTalk - Innovation - Max Alexander
This document discusses innovation at TalkTalk, a telecommunications company. It makes three key points:
1) Big innovations often come from ideas that seem on the "edge of ridiculous." These can come from disgruntled customers, rogue employees, or off-the-grid competitors.
2) When innovating, TalkTalk focuses on experimenting with ideas and being willing to fail early. They use their engineers to develop technical solutions around existing product needs.
3) TalkTalk assesses ideas based on factors like the scale of opportunity or risk, whether the idea fits their strategy, the timeline, potential to do it differently than competitors, and whether it could be a platform for further growth.
Agile Overview
The document provides an overview of Agile methodology. It defines Agile as an incremental and iterative approach to project development that values individuals, collaboration, adaptability and working software. The key aspects of Agile include short iterations, frequent delivery of working software, adaptive planning, self-organizing teams, daily stand-ups and retrospectives. Benefits of Agile include improved visibility, productivity and ability to manage changing priorities. The document recommends starting with Agile by identifying issues to solve, creating a visual board and improving through small steps and continuous learning.

This document discusses how design sprints can help cross-functional teams align on goals, make decisions based on data rather than endless discussions, and shorten product development cycles. It provides an overview of the design sprint process which includes understanding the problem, sketching solutions, deciding on a prototype, testing it with users, and iterating. The benefits of design sprints are illustrated through the example of how they helped a company called Savioke determine how a hotel delivery robot should interact with people. The presentation encourages companies to try a shortened version called a Lightning Decision Jam to experience the benefits of a design sprint.

Carmen Brion - The value for product teams to design think
Design Thinking is a framework for innovation that involves exploring problems through the lens of human-centered design. However, it is often misused by not fully understanding problems, starting to build solutions too early, or missing the exploration ("Think") phase. Other criticisms include having the wrong mindsets for discovery, not iterating solutions enough, and ineffective collaboration. To be effective, Design Thinking requires understanding problems, iterating ideas through prototyping, and orchestrating collaboration between the right people.

Whether it is indeed the Zombie Apocalypse, a game changing technology, the end of a contract, or a revolutionary new language, all software engineers and organizations have to come to grips with one thing -- all software applications including our current high-priority project wielding the latest in technology will eventually meet an untimely end!
The answer to this doomsday scenario is of course Brainz! -- We must take control of our own professional development and shape our organizations into intrinsically motivated cultures. This double-barreled approach will ensure we can adapt to the next challenge!
Two CSM/CSPs and founders of the Agile for Defense meetup team up to present innovative techniques to ensure you and your organization are ready to adapt when future challenges arise. Examples such as gamifying your organization through a Professional Development Challenge, leveraging ship-it days to foster innovation, and making servant leadership the core of your organizational structure will provide proven methods for building a motivated, zombie-free culture. Unleash the intrinsic motivation of your Brainz -- don’t let the Zombies win!

Break Through Agile Transformation Stagnation
Transformation to Agile at scale typically takes 1-3 years. There is a pattern of adoption that most companies go through that achieves initial gains, but tends to stagnate after the initial improvement. In order for true value delivery to significantly increase, a mindset shift that ties business strategy all the way down to the team level is required.
In this webinar, Tasktop VP of Industry Strategy, Betty Zakheim, and Net Objectives CEO, Al Shalloway, discuss the challenges causing Agile transformation stagnation and what must be done to solve them.

By Design, not by Accident - Agile Venture Bolzano 2024
As presented at the Agile Venture Bolzano, 4.06.2024
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
