Lightning Talks
summary
Forty fast demos compress into concrete takeaways: a GitHub project (stockaid) needs 100 stars to qualify for Haroke’s $500 prize; LA Ruby averages 2,000 members but meets ~40 in person; a bootcamp grad enrolls in Oregon State CS to learn C++ and assembly; Rijksbot searches the Rijksmuseum API and tweets images; a React on Rails checkers app highlights legal moves; API Gateway generates Ruby SDKs; ClearWater compiles Ruby to JS; use pg_stat_statements to find top-time queries; JSONAPI Suite auto‑generates request logic and docs; Consul runs participatory budgeting (€100M) and exposed 72 plaza proposals; Ruby for Good runs four‑day civic sprints; a personal Memex imports years of history into a Postgres graph; SQLite serves as a portable read‑optimized datastore for shipping rates; stickers need good sizing and branding; Rails Camp South is a cabin retreat; GemDandy opens PRs for gem updates; RSpectacles visualizes where RSpec time goes; careers and product bets are framed as deliberate leaps of faith and rapid prototypes.
