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.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

The Frog Prince
One fine evening a young princess put on her
bonnet and and clogs, and went out to take a walk by
herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool
spring of water with a rose in the middle of it, she sat
herself down to rest a while. Now she had a golden
ball in her hand, which was her favourite plaything;
and she was always tossing it up into the air, and
catching it again as it fell.

After a time she threw it up so high that she

into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep,
so deep that she could not see the bottom of it. She
began to cry, and said, "Alas! If I could only get
my ball again, I would give all my fine clothes and
jewels, and everything that I have in the world."

The Lion and The Mouse
Once when a lion was a sleep, a little mouse
began running up and down upon him; this soon
awoke the lion, who placed his huge paw upon the
mouse, and opened his big jaws to swallow him.
“Pardon, o King. Forgive me this time. I shall
never forget it: who knows I may be able to do you
a good turn some of these day?” The lion was so
tickled at the idea of the mouse being able to help
him. Then he lifted up his paw and let him go.
