In this episode, Robert is joined by Aaron Powell, who demonstrates Visual Studio Code and its integrations with GitHub and Azure. Aaron shows that VS Code provides a complete developer experience that enables you to spend more time and effort on coding and less time switching between tools. Visual Studio developers are used to this. Now, Visual Studio Code developers have this experience as well. Resources

The number of IoT devices is expected to be around 18 billion by 2022 and be a market of over $500 Billion. Edge computing is becoming an even bigger requirement. As a versatile language, JavaScript is in a great position to power many of these devices. This session will explore why and where JavaScript is being used in this industry segment and specifically the role that Node.JS plays in the Internet of Things. Data collection in the IoT arena comes in fast and from a variety of sensors and devices. How to model that data is important for analysis downstream. We’ll also take a look at some different schema design patterns to think about when storing the data in a modern database, like MongoDB. EVENT:

By now you have probably all heard about Python static typing. But why should you care? Are types in Python even Pythonic? SPOILER: Guido says so. Is Python turning into Java? In this talk I’ll try to answer these questions and explain how type annotations helped my team scale, made our code more efficient and new hires happier. We will start with how the typing system in Python came to be, what is the motivation for it and how it looks today. I will demonstrate how to gradually add types to a pre-existing codebase and what benefits will your team get in the long run from a 100% typed project. I will also cover Facebook specific technologies that have now been open sourced like our runtime type collection system, MonkeyType, and the scalable type checker, Pyre! EVENT:
