Why use Kotlin?

Jerome Cantin & Masoud Chaboki

Kotlin is rising in popularity on Github and in companies around the world, and has been selected to become the default language to build Android apps in. We'll take a look at some of the features of this language.

It's Game ON - Airplane City

Stuart Totman + Henry Soesanto

The goals of this exercise are to illustrate the significant reduction in WIP and throughput time using the pull system, to explain and illustrate the concepts of push, pull, kanban, bottleneck, cycle time, idle time, line balance, and to illustrate worker behaviour in an operational setting.

“In 200 metres, at the roundabout, meow” - how cats lead the way to self driving cars – part 1

Shai Haim

In this part we will discuss Machine Learning fundamentals from theory to practice. We will discuss different approaches for supervised and unsupervised learning and set the stage for “deep learning”.

C# 8 – The New Stuff

Matthew Wills

Taking C# 8 for a spin - nullable reference types, asynchronous streams and more!

🔸 You’ll need some prerequisites installed on your laptop for this talk - get them here.

“In 200 metres, at the roundabout, meow” - how cats lead the way to self driving cars – part 2

Shai Haim

In this part we will discuss Neural Networks - from the perceptron to “deep learning”. We’ll discuss the reasons why DL is booming now, and pay homage to the cats that made it all possible.

The garbage collector is hard, long live allocations!

Terry Tice

In today's world of garbage collectors and managed memory, how do we minimize the impact of the collecting our garbage and look toward recycling?

Exploring Graph DBs

Sowkot Osman

You want to quickly know who are your friends of friends liking your post or photos. Well, Graph DB is your best friend whereas a Relational DB will keep you waiting!

Query CSV content in T-SQL

Johnny Luo

CSV files are the basic format for data sharing, but they're not always easy to consume. During this talk I will demo how to create a service to allow you query CSV files using T-SQL.

🔸 Prerequisites are required for this workshop. Go here to install them beforehand.

🍝 Uh oh! Spaghetti code!

Chris Wright

No one sets out to write messy code, it happens gradually over time until you’re knee deep in it. In this workshop, we’ll explore UI Application design patterns that will make it easier to change code, and make sense to people other than the author. We will cover component design patterns and tradeoffs in part one by going in depth to build a React component, and in part two we’ll look at the Application level of a React app and how we can use different patterns to deal with how everything fits together and communicates with an API.

🔸 CodeSandbox will be used, but in case network connections are not good, get set up here.

CQRS on the command line

Mark Green

I’ll explain CQRS, then we’ll implement it on the command line.

This workshop has stuff you need to install beforehand - get the stuff here.
