Meanwhile, the pace of change in the AI tooling space is still quite high, which contributes further to the hype fatigue.This presentation gives an overview of the tooling and features available today, what works and what doesn't, and what might work with more technical advances. It will mostly focus on AI assistance for tasks that involve writing, reading and changing code, but also touch on software delivery tasks that don't touch code directly, like requirements analysis. This whirlwind tour of the AI tooling landscape is based on Birgitta's experience as Thoughtworks' global SME for AI-assisted software delivery.

From his transition from Microsoft Research to founding Computing at School, Simon argues that computing education should be foundational rather than vocational, giving children agency in the digital world just as we teach them basic numeracy and science. He explores how to maintain the essence of computational thinking in an era where AI can instantly solve coding problems, emphasizing concrete, motivated contexts over abstract algorithms.The discussion spans from elementary programming with Scratch and physical computing devices to his unique role as a computing fellow at Epic Games, where he works with CEO Tim Sweeney to design the Verse programming language, proving that even billion-dollar companies can prioritize denotational semantics over quarterly profits.TIMECODES00:00 Intro01:08 The Binary System discovery: A teaching moment05:45 Problem-solving in the age of AI10:25 The journey into computing education16:35 Functional programming & compiler design20:41 Working as a computing fellow at Epic Games23:40 OutroRECOMMENDED BOOKSSimon Peyton Jones • The Implementation of Functional Programming Languages • amzn.to/3HQE0XnChelsea Troy • Remote Work Sucks • heychelseatroy.gumroad.com/l/remoteworksucksChristopher Alexander • A Pattern Language • amzn.to/3Urefj3Vitaly Bragilevsky • Haskell in Depth • amzn.to/3EXpmbeRebecca Skinner • Effective Haskell • amzn.to/3VgUKshGraham Hutton • Programming in Haskell • amzn.to/3Fi8rBChttps://bsky.app/profile/gotocon.comtwitter.com/GOTOconlinkedin.com/company/goto-instagram.com/goto_confacebook.com/GOTOConferences#Binary #BinarySystem #Haskell #GHC #SoftwareEngineering #Programming #FunctionalProgramming #CompilerDesign #CodingForKids #LearnToCode #EducatingKids #RaspberryPi #Arduino #Tech #SoftwareDevelopment #SoftwareTechnology #SimonPeytonJones #ChelseaTroy #TodayInTechCHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

The authors highlight a critical gap in Java education - while schools teach syntax, loops, and basic programming concepts, they barely cover the vast ecosystem that professional developers actually use daily, including Git, logging frameworks, Spring, CI/CD, and IDE mastery.Victor emphasizes that knowing how to use your development tools, particularly IDE refactoring features, is a better indicator of developer experience than algorithm tests.The book serves as a bridge for new graduates, career changers from other languages, or developers stuck on older Java versions, providing practical knowledge about the tools and frameworks that define modern Java development. Rather than just teaching "hello world" examples, the authors focus on the essential ecosystem components needed to succeed in enterprise Java environments, making it accessible for anyone who knows the Java language but needs to understand the broader technological landscape they'll encounter in professional development roles.

Or rather, they make themselves, carefully and deliberately over time. I am not talking about the folks who rote-learn the l33t answers and throw their egos around; I mean the ones who build great products using simple, understandable code, while lifting up those around them.I have worked with some great programmers over the years, and met some others along the way. I want to tell you about the best programmer I know. As I have said elsewhere, they have “an insatiable curiosity and the belief they can convince a computer to do anything. Plus a healthy disregard for language and tool zealotry.”As I describe them, you might recognise some of their traits in yourself; you might decide you want to aspire to some of them; you might choose to refer to them as an interviewer, or as a candidate. My hope is simply that you find them useful and in some way inspiring.

The approach requires psychological safety and organizational support but has proven successful even in traditional corporate environments, ultimately creating more maintainable code bases where development teams actually enjoy working and can respond effectively to changing requirements.TIMECODES00:00 Intro02:12 Problem: Traditional architecture as a bottleneck04:31 Solution: Facilitating Architecture Decisions12:22 3 key influences on the book27:43 Implementation challenges & organizational culture38:05 OutroRECOMMENDED BOOKSAndrew Harmel-Law • Facilitating Software Architecture • https://amzn.eu/d/5kZKVfUChristopher Alexander • A Pattern Language • amzn.to/3Urefj3Diana Montalion • Learning Systems Thinking • amzn.to/3ZpycdJDonella H.

He explains how uncertainty defines the architect's role and introduces residuality—a method where architects deliberately stress their conceptual models until they collapse, then optimize the resulting "residues" or leftovers to create more resilient systems.Unlike traditional software engineering approaches, that try to eliminate uncertainty through rigid requirements, residuality embraces random stressors (even far-fetched scenarios like giant lizards) to uncover architectural fault lines.O'Reilly argues that this playful yet mathematically sound approach produces more robust architectures than conventional methods, and his second book explores how inherited philosophical thinking often undermines software architecture's effectiveness in complex business contexts.RECOMMENDED BOOKSBarry O'Reilly • Residues (leanpub.com/residuality) Barry O'Reilly • The Architect's Paradox (leanpub.com/architectsparadox) Jacqui Read • Communication Patterns (amzn.to/3E37lvv) Anne Currie & Jamie Dobson • The Cloud Native Attitude (amzn.to/3R0exeT) Gregor Hohpe • The Software Arch (amzn.to/3F6d2ax) Crossing Borders (buzzsprout.com/2529297/episodes/17682252) Crossing Borders is a podcast by Neema, a cross border payments platform that...Listen on: Apple Podcasts (podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id) Spotify (open.spotify.com/show/2lOe2EyAuuvTnJjxqa1aav) Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/gotocon.com) Twitter (twitter.com/GOTOcon) Instagram (instagram.com/goto_con) LinkedIn (linkedin.com/company/goto-) Facebook (facebook.com/GOTOConferences) CHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

They discuss how modern Java performance must account for cloud native architectures, with applications running across distributed microservices and containerized, single-core environments.The book focuses on the importance of measuring relevant data, warns against relying on misleading micro-benchmarks, and highlights how system-level benchmarks offer a clearer picture. Ben also delves into the JVM's hidden complexities, such as changes in Java 17 and the impact of virtual threads. Practical, real-world examples in the book, like the "fighting animals" microservices application, help developers learn how to optimize Java performance in real network environments.Finally, Ben touches on the future of Java concurrency, with virtual threads and structured concurrency offering new ways to handle performance challenges in cloud native systems.RECOMMENDED BOOKSBen Evans & Jim Gough • Optimizing Cloud Native Java (amzn.to/41nivD9) Ben Evans, Jason Clark & David Flanagan • Ja (amzn.to/43FDoMA) Crossing Borders (buzzsprout.com/2529297/episodes/17682252) Crossing Borders is a podcast by Neema, a cross border payments platform that...Listen on: Apple Podcasts (podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id) Spotify (open.spotify.com/show/2lOe2EyAuuvTnJjxqa1aav) Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/gotocon.com) Twitter (twitter.com/GOTOcon) Instagram (instagram.com/goto_con) LinkedIn (linkedin.com/company/goto-) Facebook (facebook.com/GOTOConferences) CHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

Some Principles From Real World Internal Developer Platform Engineering • Russ Miles • GOTO 2024 GOTO Conferences 2025-08-07 | This presentation was recorded at GOTO Copenhagen 2024. #GOTOcon #GOTOcphgotocph.comRuss Miles - Author, Engineering Manager & Chaos Engineering PractitionerORIGINAL TALK TITLEDon’t Feed the Pigeons: Some Principles From Real World Internal Developer Platform EngineeringRESOURCEShttps://bsky.app/profile/russmiles.bsky.socialgithub.com/russmileslinkedin.com/in/russmilesABSTRACTPrinciples are tools that provide touchstones to help you navigate a blurry reality. When you’re faced with difficult choices it’s your principles, aligned with your values, that steer your course away from or into the rocks. You can’t anticipate the seas you’re going to sail, but good principles will work regardless of how choppy the waters are. And the broad and deep waters of building a successful internal developer platform can be choppier than most, so holding your principles close is essential to not drowning in all that platform engineering promise.Platform engineering promises the best application of people, financial and technical resources to support and deliver speed at scale, so the stakes are high and the promise mouth-watering to unsuspecting CTOs. But there’s “many a slip-twixt-cup-and-lip”, and it’s looking likely that the roads in the coming years will be likely peppered with wasted budgets and articles such as “Why platform engineering doesn’t work”. So let’s get ahead of all that negativity and talk about how it can work in a couple of real-world environments.In this talk Russ Miles, Technical Product Owner of the Cloud and On-Premise Infrastructure Platform Products at Clear.Bank, will share some principles he uses to guide the teams responsible for delivering a successful internal developer platform. Using real-world examples and stories, and being very careful of survivor bias, we’ll explore the complex terrain that a platform initiative has to plot a course through. After this talk you’ll take away a toolbox of principles to apply to your own complex, socio-technical working environment. You’ll learn the foundations and principles that can keep your own platform engineering initiatives off the rocks and sailing in the blue waters of ROI.How you may ask?It all starts by not feeding the pigeons. Curious? See you at the talk!

But what is a generative pre-trained transformer, and how does it work? How can you leverage the latest advances in GPT algorithms to create engaging and useful applications? Can my business benefit from creating a GPT powered chat bot?In this demo intensive session Alan will take a deep dive into the architecture of GPT algorithms and the inner workings of ChatGPT. The journey will begin by looking at the fundamental concepts of natural language processing, such as word embedding, vectorization and tokenization. He will then demonstrate how you can apply these techniques to train a GPT2 model that can generate song lyrics, showing the internals of how word sequences are predicted.Alan will then shift the focus to larger language models, such as ChatGPT and GPT4, demonstrating their power, capabilities, and limitations. The use of hyperparameters such as temperature and frequency penalty will be explained and their effect on the generated output demonstrated.Join me for this session if you want to learn how to harness the power of GPT algorithms in your own solutions.
