Where does Agile fit in?
? Ashley Davis

The agile manifesto...
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on
the right, we value the items on the left more.

As presented as opening keynote to SDD 2019 in London, together with Kim van Wilgen, customer director at Schuberg Philis. Ever since we started writing code in the fifties of the previous century, managers and project managers have tried to discipline and structure the way we work. However, no matter how many consultants and coaches are hired to implement increasingly complex process frameworks and methodologies, developers and testers always come up with new simplistic approaches. During this talk, Kim and Sander will feal with Flow: the worst software development methodology in the history ever, taking inspiration from the worst principles and practices from methodologies such as waterfall, RUP, Scrum, Kanban, Lean, BDD, LeSS , SAFe, Spotify and of course everything continuous. Don't let project failure take you by surprise, be certain!

Live reloading your code - getting near instant feedback while you are coding - is a fundamental part of maintaining a rapid pace of development. Video of the talk: https://youtu.be/rdb8vbeL5LY Blog post: https://www.codecapers.com.au/live-reload-across-the-stack/ Example code: https://github.com/ashleydavis/live-reload-examples In this talk we'll look at the best ways to implement automatic live reload across your tech stack for JavaScript, including: - Live reloading code in the backend and frontend; - Using "watch mode" for live reload of your automated tests; - Automatically synchronising code changes into a running Docker container and reloading it. There's simply no part of your development and testing process that can't be improved by automatically reloading so you can easily test your code changes. Join software craftsman and author Ashley Davis for a tour and demonstration of configuring live reload across your stack.

Were you ever unsatisfied enough with an existing framework that you took the completely crazy step of rewriting it? Well, that just happened to Ashley Davis. He's just finished rebuilding GraphQL in TypeScript. We'll talk about "reinventing the wheel". Why is it considered bad? When is it a good time to reinvent things? We'll look at how the new query language was developed and see a demo of it in action!

In this talk for the Brisbane JavaScript meetup Ashley shows how to backtest trading strategies in JavaScript. We can simulate systematic trading strategies to under their performance and risk characteristics. We can also do it to get a feel for the market and learn about trading. It's a risk free way to learn the market and get a feel for trading before putting real money on the table.

Node.js has memory limitations that you can hit quite easily in production. You'll know this if you ever tried to load a large data file into your Node.js application. But where exactly are the limits of memory in Node.js? In this short talk we'll push Node.js to it's limits and find out where those limits are. We'll also cover some practical techniques you can use to work around the memory limitations and get your data to fit into memory. A talk by Ashley Davis for the Brisbane JavaScript meetup.

The microservices honeymoon is over. When starting a new project or revamping a legacy monolith, teams started looking for alternatives to microservices. The Modular Monolith, or 'Modulith', is an architecture that reaps the benefits of (vertical) functional decoupling without the high costs associated with separate deployments. This talk will delve into the advantages and challenges of this progressive architecture, beginning with exploring the concept of a 'module', its internal structure, public API, and inter-module communication patterns. Supported by spring-modulith, the talk provides practical guidance on addressing the main challenges of a Modultith Architecture: finding and guarding module boundaries, data decoupling, and integration module-testing. You should not miss this talk if you are a software architect or tech lead seeking practical, scalable solutions. About the author With two decades of experience, Victor is a Java Champion working as a trainer for top companies in Europe. Five thousands developers in 120 companies attended his workshops, so he gets to debate every week the challenges that various projects struggle with. In return, Victor summarizes key points from these workshops in conference talks and online meetups for the European Software Crafters, the world’s largest developer community around architecture, refactoring, and testing. Discover how Victor can help you on victorrentea.ro : company training catalog, consultancy and YouTube playlists.

Now, those stark lines are blurring as both sides are discovering they have content that’s relevant to the other. Join Tammy Rutherford as she walks through the pros and cons of corporate and higher ed collaborating.

Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) is the most popular style of large language model application to emerge from 2023. The most basic style of RAG works by vectorizing your data and injecting it into a vector database like Milvus for retrieval to augment the text output generated by an LLM. This is just the beginning. One of the ways that we can extend RAG, and extend AI, is through multilingual use cases. Typical RAG is done in English using embedding models that are trained in English. In this talk, we’ll explore how RAG could work in languages other than English. We’ll explore French, Chinese, and Polish.

When you’re building (micro)services, you have lots of framework options. Spring Boot is no doubt a popular choice. But there’s more! Take Quarkus, a framework that’s considered the rising star for Kubernetes-native Java. It always depends on what's best for your situation, but how to choose the best solution if you're comparing 2 frameworks? Both Spring Boot and Quarkus have their positives and negatives. Let us compare the two by live coding a couple of common use cases in Spring Boot and Quarkus. After this talk, you’ll be ready to get started with Quarkus yourself, and know when to select Quarkus or Spring Boot.

Tracing the root cause of a performance issue requires a lot of patience, experience, and focus. It’s so hard that we sometimes attempt to guess by trying out tentative fixes, but that usually results in frustration, messy code, and a considerable waste of time and money. This talk explains how to correctly zoom in on a performance bottleneck using three levels of profiling: distributed tracing, metrics, and method profiling. After we learn to read the JVM profiler output as a flame graph, we explore a series of bottlenecks typical for backend systems, like connection/thread pool starvation, invisible aspects, blocking code, hot CPU methods, lock contention, and Virtual Thread pinning, and we learn to trace them even if they occur in library code you are not familiar with. Attend this talk and prepare for the performance issues that will eventually hit any successful system.
