11:00am CET

Toegankelijkheid, we maken een product voor iedereen (NL)

Thursday November 21, 2024 11:00am - 11:20am CET

Room 3

We duiken in toegankelijkheid principes en hoe het ons allen beïnvloedt. Toegankelijkheid is veel meer dan alleen fysieke hellingen en drempels - het gaat om het wegnemen van barrières, zodat iedereen volledig kan deelnemen aan onze samenleving en digitale wereld.

We gaan in op de basisprincipes van toegankelijkheid en we bekijken tips en bronnen hoe we een product voor iedereen kunnen maken.

Dit is zeker ook geschikt voor niet technische profielen.

How to write code that gets you fired: Taking performance optimization too far (EN)

Thursday November 21, 2024 4:10pm - 5:10pm CET

Room 2

This talk will cover performance optimizations. Performance optimizations you're very unlikely to ever need. Performance optimizations you should probably not even consider. Performance optimizations that will get you fired. It will go lower down the stack than you'll probably ever need in your career, all for the sake of performance. For the sake of those juicy benchmark numbers, the slightly lower infrastructure bills, and the vague sense of superiority from knowing that your code runs just that little bit faster than everybody else's.

Speakers

Debug your thinking (EN)

Thursday November 21, 2024 5:15pm - 6:15pm CET

Room 1

There’s a myriad of complexity involved in building systems. However, two decades in software engineering taught me what truly makes or breaks a system: decisions. It’s not the programming language, the data store, the deployment model, or [insert your favorite tech here]. It’s about the decisions made and the ripple effects they cause. We spend endless hours trying to keep up with the latest and greatest in an industry that sprints faster than a caffeinated cheetah... But how much time was invested in questioning, improving, or, essentially, debugging our thinking process?

How do you structure your decisions, and how do they affect the software you build? When suboptimal decisions occur, do you reflect on the decision-making process itself? I've spent the last few years debugging my decision-making thought process, placing breakpoints to inspect which assumptions got me here and what alternatives I may have missed. As a result, my thought process became much more structured and streamlined, leading to better-balanced decisions. Join me in this session to explore how critical thinking can transform our decision-making process and elevate the quality of the solutions we build for our users.
