Lightning Talks
summary
A rapid round of specifics: 18 teams 10 paid 8 volunteers complete Rails Girls Summer of Code in three months with 26 coaches 20 mentors; a demo ties an ar drone running on node js to ruby via gems argus and r2 but the quadcopter intermittently lands and sometimes crashes; a live‑coding helper gem plus Leap Motion fakes typing reliably enough for demos but gestures misread under stage lights; a CSS trick sequences height then width with staggered transitions; a proposed append‑only RDF variant with context_id unique_id timestamp enables windowing revocation and perfect backups.
