Semantic Web For Distributed Social Networks
My presentation about Semantic We for distributed social networks. Given at Web Directions South 08. http://south08.webdirections.org/
Game Design is Business Design
The game industry has changed. A rapid shift is underway as we move from a packaged goods dominated past to a digital, free to play dominated present. More players then ever enjoy the widest range of games of any time in our industry's history. In this new world, the designer’s role has changed dramatically. The successful designers of our digital present are not only masters of fun, but also masters of business models and monetization. This lecture talks about the changing role of game designers and presents case studies of how they can successfully apply business design to their practice.

Slides from Daniel Van Gils' talk "Docker Inside/Out: the ‘real’ real-world of stacking containers in production."
Abstract: So you’ve already containerized the shit out of your code, broken down monoliths, microserviced the hell out of your app and have run some awesome workloads in your local, dev and test environments. It’s all looking good, but now what? Running Docker commands is one thing, but maintaining containers in production is a whole other ballgame. So during this talk, I’ll show you the REAL wild world of Docker in production. With the added benefit of talking to and observing how over 900 of our customers have been using Docker in production, I’ll be presenting some of these data points and sharing real life stories running containers in production
Hacking != cracking (and everything else you need to know to survive a hackday)
The document provides 15 tips for surviving a hack day event. It begins with defining key terms like hacking and hackers, explaining that hackers are skilled problem solvers, not criminals. It then outlines the schedule and challenges for an upcoming hack day and provides tips such as choosing a problem you're interested in, getting the right skills on your team, using available tools and data, tackling hard problems first, preparing a pitch, and having fun. The overall message is that hack days are opportunities to build solutions through creative technical skills and teamwork.

But I'm a Bloody Designer!
As presented at @media Ajax in London on 19th November 2007.
So we spent years learning our craft - specialising - reading the CSS specs in bed, hardwiring the Photoshop keyboard shortcuts into our brains, working up a usability test subject patter and playing with sticky notes. Then along came Ajax. Until that point we could safely silo ourselves, locked away in our niche specialities. But producing good _applications_ requires more than that. Yes, we need our specialist skills but without a thorough understanding of both ends of the Ajax equation the result will be an unholy mess.
Interface designer Mike Stenhouse will discuss how his working life has changed, what we need to know to produce good applications for the modern web and how many times he's thrown his toys out of his pram and whined "But I'm a bloody designer!"

Emily Greer at GDC 2018: Data-Driven or Data-Blinded?
In the last decade of data analysis, A/B testing and predictive modeling have transitioned from an afterthought to a given in the game industry. Data can be invaluable in understanding the player and making decisions, but it can just as easily lead the industry astray, or worse, narrow the way the industry thinks. When should you be driven by data, and when should you let your imagination roam free? This session will expose common mistakes and pitfalls, both technical and emotional, as well as provide practical guidance on how to improve the rigorousness of your tests and the quality of your data, and how to make sure you don't lose the forest for the trees.

What the hack?
My introduction talk to the Open Hack Day in Bangalore, India, 2010 explaining what a hack is, how to build hacks quickly and how to present your hack once you are done.
Christian Heilmann: Yahoo Open Hack Day
Hack days are events where developers innovate and collaborate to solve problems using existing technologies in a 24-hour period. The document discusses that hacking means finding creative solutions regardless of limitations. It provides examples of historical innovations that were initially dismissed but later became mainstream products. The author encourages participants to identify issues and build working solutions by combining available online tools and frameworks. Presentations should demonstrate the hacks through live demos rather than slides and emphasize the problem solved over technical details. Participants are asked to publish their work publicly and continue collaborating with other hackers after the event.
