Great Programming Habits
Still following “best practice” but moving slower than ever?
This workshop questions the dogma. You’ll explore modern programming habits that rethink design, architecture and delivery from a human point of view. Learn when to move fast, when to slow down and how to work with legacy and ops without losing your mind.
Understanding Async Machinery Down to a Single Detail
Pop the hood and see what async is really doing. You’ll look at the state machine the compiler builds, how sync contexts work and why “just waiting” can break everything. You’ll debug real issues, tweak the internals and finally feel in control of your async code.
Group Decision Making: How Groups Can Overcome The Influences Of Group Member Biases and Social Dynamics
In this science-based workshop, Linda blends research and real team stories to help you spot bias, avoid groupthink and make smarter decisions. You’ll leave with simple tools you can use on Monday, alone or with your team.
2 Days: Hack Yourself First
In this hands-on, 2-day workshop you attack a real vulnerable web app—XSS, SQL injection, CSRF, session hijacking and more. Learn how exploits work, then build the defenses. Sharpen your instincts. Make better security calls in real life.
Communicate Like a CTO
Learn to turn technical work into clear business value. Use simple frameworks to cut jargon, structure your message and speak to time, cost and risk so your ideas land and decisions move.
2 Days: Advanced Software Architecture with Residuality
Learn how to design resilient software for complex domains. Gain practical techniques to reduce risk, improve decision-making and tackle uncertainty with tools like stressor analysis, adjacency matrices and real-world architecture labs.
Learn from legends
Learn from the people shaping our industry—the pioneers, the authors, the ones creating the tools we use every day.
Stay ahead of the curve
Explore the latest tools, programming languages and best practices. Leave with actionable insights.
