Sick and tired of “X technology is only good for starting out; after you do, move to Y”? Good news: you don’t need to move away, you just need to get in further! In this talk, you’ll learn about improvements in the newest version of the most used database in the world. What are Window Functions? How do you use CTEs? How can the new default encoding help me? We’ll also talk about new JSON features and extended UUID support! Be prepared to drink from the firehose of what’s new and awesome about MySQL 8.0.

React Native is magical and it’s catching fire. What’s exactly is it? How does it work for iOS AND Android? Not only can you make universal components and save hundreds of lines of code, it allows developers to reuse code across the web AND mobile all with a smooth UI.

A malicious XCode injected malware into thousands of apps, stealing data of millions of users. Tokens committed to a GitHub repo exposed millions of Uber drivers and passengers. A phished developer gave the Syrian Electronic Army access to the Financial Times’ site. What do all of these have in common? They were caused by developers. Well-intentioned, smart and experienced developers. They had nothing to do with writing insecure code, and everything to do with the incredible access we’re entrusted with, ranging from code that reaches millions to direct access to these users’ data. In the name of DevOps, we’ve made developers incredibly powerful – but when does such access become unacceptable risk? Are there architectures and processes that let us move fast without exposing the keys to the kingdom? Can our culture be trusting and agile yet have a healthy appreciation of risk? Besides building a sober appreciation of this risk, this talk will help equip us to handle it. We’ll learn risk management from role models inside and outside of tech, understand cognitive biases, and build the case that good security constraints can actually help us move faster. Lastly, we’ll share a vision of where we may be headed, and how we can protect ourselves – and our users.
