Oli Gardner has a talent of making the future, in all its machinations and i-Robot-esque imagery, seem like an interesting, smarter, more intuitive world than today. But before we started to chat about how the glass is clearly half full, Oli introduced four of most common (and very human) mistakes of CRO: testing opinions, not insights, testing the wrong things, stopping tests too early, and focusing on the surface level metrics versus lifetime value.

Starting Your DevOps Journey: Practical Tips for Ops
In this webinar, Andreas Grabner, Chief DevOps Activist at Dynatrace, shares practical tips that all IT groups from Dev to Ops can use to start their DevOps journey quickly. With experience from hundreds of DevOps deployments, Andi provides insights it would take your team months or years to learn firsthand.
- Learn how everyone on your Ops team can use APM to better understand and monitor SLAs, Performance and End User Impact of their applications.
- Foster better collaboration between Ops and architects by extending basic system monitoring to monolith and microservices architectures.
- Shift-left your testing and QA by working with metrics that you and the architects agreed on up front, resulting in early relevant feedback and faster code deployments.
- Hear why changing the cultural mindset from “fear of change” to “Continuous Innovation and Optimization” is critical for success.

A Bonus to the "Three Interviews About Static Analyzers" Article, or Intervie...Andrey Karpov
About a week ago, I published the "Three Interviews About Static Code Analyzers" article at Habrahabr.
This article presents opinions of three experienced programmers from the companies Acronis,
AlternativaPlatform and Echelon Company concerning software development methodologies as well as
some of their ideas about using static code analyzers.
Since the article was sponsored by the OOO "Program Verification Systems" company, developer of the
PVS-Studio static analyzer, I asked Andrey Karpov (CTO) to answer some questions too. In particular, I
asked him to comment upon the most interesting aspects and ideas of all the three interviews and say a
few words for colleagues and readers, too. Here's what we've got - one more interesting interview.
From usability to performance, analytics to architecture; as report developers, the user experience design (UX) of your data model is quickly becoming more important than the pretty pictures that sit on top of it. This session will concentrate on the design decisions needed to increase the usage of your reports.
I had a chance to be part of a team that started developing a decent size React Native mobile app from scratch. As a developer with a solid React background, I had some expectations at first. During my initial research, everything sounded terrific: performance stats, ease of development, learn-once-use-everywhere, debugging tools, etc. But is everything terrific really?
I'm excited to share my journey about how my expectations met the reality. I'll give my personal opinion about the matureness of the technology, for which use-cases it fits well and for which it doesn't. I'll also try to address the most popular misconceptions about React Native, which front-end developers usually have before they have the chance to actually built something.
Herding Microservices – the Atlassian WayAtlassian
You know the story – your team needs to build a new integration for a new system and you decide, "A microservice would be perfect for this!" Before you know it, there are dozens of integrations and dozens of microservices spinning out of control.
In this session, Matej Konecny will walk you through his team's process for herding dozens of microservices at Atlassian. He'll share the processes they've put in place to manage and scale incident responses, make the service dependencies discoverable, and architect sustainable systems as they keep on building more integrations.
Incident Management in the Age of DevOps and SRE Rundeck
Keynote presentation at DevOps Con Munich, December 3, 2019, presented by Damon Edwards, co-founder of Rundeck.
Responding to incidents has always been the core job of Operations. With the rise of DevOps and SRE, how Operations work gets done — and who is doing the work — is changing. This talk will look at how high-performing organizations are applying DevOps and SRE practices to shorten incidents and reduce escalations.

No estimates - a controversial way to improve estimation with results-handoutsVasco Duarte
Often we hear that estimating a project is a must. "We can't make decisions without them" we hear often.
In this session I'll present examples of how we can predict a release date of a project without any estimates, only relying on easily available data.
I'll show how we can follow progress on a project at all times without having to rely on guesswork, and we will review how large, very large and small projects have already benefited from this in the past.
At the end of the session you will be ready to start your own
#NoEstimates journey.

Identifying MMORPG Bots: A Traffic Analysis ApproachAcademia Sinica
MMORPGs have become extremely popular among network gamers. Despite their success, one of MMORPG’s greatest challenges is the increasing use of game bots, i.e., autoplaying game clients. The use of game bots is considered unsportsmanlike and is therefore forbidden. To keep games in order, game police, played by actual human players, often patrol game zones and question suspicious players. This practice, however, is labor-intensive and ineffective. To address this problem, we analyze the traffic generated by human players vs. game bots and propose solutions to automatically identify game bots.
Taking Ragnarok Online, one of the most popular MMOGs, as our subject, we study the traffic generated by mainstream game bots and human players. We find that their traffic is distinguishable by: 1) the regularity in the release time of client commands, 2) the trend and magnitude of traffic burstiness in multiple time scales, and 3) the sensitivity to network conditions. We propose four strategies and two integrated schemes to identify bots. For our data sets, the conservative scheme completely avoids making false accusations against bona fide players, while the progressive scheme tracks game bots down more aggressively. Finally, we show that the proposed methods are generalizable to other games and robust against counter-measures from bot developers.
Serverless in Production, an experience report (cloudXchange)Yan Cui
AWS Lambda has changed the way we deploy and run software, but this new serverless paradigm has created new challenges to old problems - how do you test a cloud-hosted function locally? How do you monitor them? What about logging and config management? And how do we start migrating from existing architectures?
In this talk Yan and Scott will discuss solutions to these challenges by drawing from real-world experience running Lambda in production and migrating from an existing monolithic architecture.
There are many reasons why salary transparency is important to us, but the biggest catalyst for launching a Compensation Strategy at Seer was – surprise, surprise – the data. But not cold, emotionless data in this case. This data reflected the often uncomfortable feelings surrounding salary.
According to employee feedback from our annual engagement surveys, the team consistently reported that they felt confused and dissatisfied about their compensation. It was critical for us to bring transparency to compensation decisions at Seer, and now we’re excited to share it publicly.
See how Emily Allen, Director of People Operations at Seer, navigated the launch of our Compensation Strategy - including company-wide salary transparency - in this slide deck that was presented to the company.

Sayf Sharif, Seer’s own Director of Analytics, gave our audience the rundown of the why’s, what’s and how’s of optimizing conversions with Analytics. That is, after he shared a personal anecdote about why it’s not a great idea to track your wife’s contractions “then disagree with her assessment of labor progression by pointing at a chart you just made”.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

#SeerCCQ pro tip
239. “Before taking Peter Smith’s Landscape course my photography was decent
but not very special. But after lesson 2 on exposure, my understanding of how
light works, using ND grad filters, and how to accurately capture light means
that I’m no longer freaking out at sunset trying to balance the sky and
foreground. The number of great shots I get is about 3x higher.”
