Flash Talks
summary
Compilation of rapid demos shows practical projects and findings: a resume parser that sends PDFs to GPT, receives strict JSON, and stores parsed skills and industries in SQL so recruiters can query resumes by industry or years of Ruby experience; a Svelte example measuring bundle size 7 KB vs React 131 KB; a rubocop rule built from the Ruby AST to replace pluck.first with pick and tested via specs; an upgrade estimator that cuts gem-compatibility triage from a week to two days.
