You're a pig, but they call you chicken: How to co-opt the Agile methodology ...Jonathan Abbett
Our frustrations as designers about Agile have tended to reinforce our position as outsiders. In reality, we're unusually well-suited to lead Agile software teams, because we're trained to address Agile's biggest blind spot: How do you create a VIABLE PRODUCT on a SCHEDULE and on a BUDGET?

High Scalability by Example – How can Web-Architecture scale like Facebook, T...Robert Mederer
Skalierbarkeit bedeutet hohes Aufkommen von Traffic, Daten, Userbase, IO, Parallelverarbeitung und Concurrency, aber wie funktioniert dies bei den bekannten Web 2.0 Plattformen. Wie wird skaliert – horizontal oder vertikal, im Client-Layer, Service-Layer oder im Backend-Layer? Welche Rolle spielt Caching, NoSQL, Clustering und MapReduce bei der Skalierbarkeit? Wie wirkt sich die Skalierbarkeit in Sachen Konsistenz vs. Verfügbarkeit vs. Network Toleranz aus? Der Vortrag geht vergleichend auf verschiedene Konzepte von Skalierbarkeit ein und erläutert anhand von Beispielen wie mit pragmatischen Mitteln eine skalierbare Architektur erreicht werden kann.
Have an upcoming technical interview for a junior front-end developer position at a company that uses AngularJS? Here are 29 AngularJS interview questions for you to practice with!
The Node.js movement has transformed the landscape of UI development. In this session we'll look at how Node.js can be leveraged on multiple layers of the web application development lifecycle. Attendees will learn how incorporating Node.js into your front-end build process can optimize code, allow you to use use new and upcoming JavaScript features in your code today, and to improve your asset delivery pipeline. This session will also cover how Node is changing the template rendering landscape, allowing developers to write "isomorphic" code that runs on the client and server. Lastly we'll look into using Node to achieve developer zen by keeping the codebase clean and limiting the risk of changes to the code causing unknown errors.

What makes websites a strong channel for the company? Is it the visuals or what it does for its customers? As success is increasingly fought at the experience level, can design help you build websites that people truly value? And if so, how?
This presentation is about good design discovery by way of effective User Experience research. It's a set of methods you can mix and match to truly understand who you're designing for, according to what the medium is and what your business needs.
If you've ever wondered how to conduct good UX research or what's going on in that designer's mind (again), look no further.
Presented at DrupalNorth Regional Summit (August 2018)
My Agile 2013 session 'Rapid Product Design in the Wild'. In August 2012 Red Gate attended Kscope, a conference for Oracle developers. Instead of doing the usual product demonstrations, we turned our stand into a live lab and took Agile development processes out of the office and in front of our customers. Our stand included an area for customer research, a Kanban board and information radiators in the form of a whiteboard, blank wall and a large digital screen. Over 3 days we ran 9 sprints and conducted 25 customer interviews, using a paper prototype to get feedback. We collected invaluable information about our customers' development environments, how they work with their teams, their processes, tasks and pain points. By the end of the conference my colleague had developed an interactive HTML/CSS prototype which potential customers could evaluate. The team went through several rapid build-measure-learn cycles to improve our product concept and validate the market need.
This presentation explains the process we used and introduces the Live Design Lab Planner, a tool which helps teams to plan this type of rapid product design activity.
Much of the thought around Lean UX focuses on design groups within product organizations (startups and enterprises). What happens when you try to use Lean design methodologies inside of an agency.

A tale about our culture around the use of fertilizers and pesticides visiting small farms around Ahmedabad in Matar and Shilaj.
Hello everyone! I am thrilled to present my latest portfolio on LinkedIn, marking the culmination of my architectural journey thus far. Over the span of five years, I've been fortunate to acquire a wealth of knowledge under the guidance of esteemed professors and industry mentors. From rigorous academic pursuits to practical engagements, each experience has contributed to my growth and refinement as an architecture student. This portfolio not only showcases my projects but also underscores my attention to detail and to innovative architecture as a profession.

3. Tackling)analysis)paralysis
When we have a tried and true process that we're comfortable with,
it can be daunting to invest time in something new without
understanding its payoff.
Burnout can also happen in a rapidly changing industry like ours. So
what can we do to mitigate all that noise?
Rather than trying to know everything, it's more important to
identify the right things to pursue. The rest is simply becoming
better at what we already know how to do.
4. Not to mention, the more efficient you are at
your work, the more time you will have to
develop yourself in other areas of your life.
5. In the beginner’s mind, there are
many possibilities. But in the
expert’s, there are few.
