A internal civil war has been my life for years as I've walked the razor wire separating breakers and builders.
I'd like to share my experiences presenting outside the security industry at developer conferences like Djangocon, JSConf (trackb), and RealtimeConf what it's like to be the lone security professional in a sea of builders, what it feels like, what they say, what they really care about, how not to speak to them, how to completely disrespect them, and how to fail miserably.
I’ll explain how React is moving towards a minimal API surface area. Instead of providing many framework features, React is trying to utilize patterns, paradigms and JavaScript language features to accomplish the same tasks that other frameworks have dedicated APIs for. Not all environments have these natively. We need to polyfill new an experimental features. How can we safely do that? Is it better to have a non-standard library?
Extending your Rails app with some Go, Scala, Elixir or node.js sound interesting to you? The first challenge to get there is to safely share the session between your apps. Crypto is hard… but that won't prevent us from looking into how Rails sessions work and how to share them across programming languages.
DevOps practices create transparency and foster cooperation to support the government’s goal of increased speed in deployment, innovation, and acquisition. However, three fundamental challenges must be overcome before the Government can successfully implement DevOps practices on a large scale. These three challenges are related to tools used, process implementation, and current culture. This talk will identify the specific DevOps implementation barriers and strategies to help overcome them in large government organizations leading to happier and more productive developers.
Docker is an open source project to distribute and run applications by using Linux containers. You will learn how to use Docker by example and I'm going to show you how you can effectively transform an application contained in GIT repository into a runnable container that can then be shared and distributed to other developers.
