Fullstack Porto 6th edition - Tiago Caxias and Doug Sillars

Title: ReDiS Etymologically

Abstract: Redis might be the best database ever created.
In this talk I will not talk about Redis, I'll rather do a bunch of demos on Redis and present some use cases and show off some of the things Redis does.
Hopefully many demos will fail so be sure to come because this will sure be a fun presentation!

He is interested in things most people don't care about such has himself, and other irrelevant stuff...
If you've read this far you're definitely someone with a lot of free time, do yourself a favour and get out and go for a walk or something.

Title: Image Identification with Machine Learning

Abstract: Optimizing image content for every browser and device size can be difficult. Random cropping of images can lead to losing context and features (sometimes as extreme as lopping off the heads of your subjects). In this talk it will be presented how AI can be used to identify the important content in each image, allowing for smart cropping of images. This allows to optimize images further than perviously possible, shrinking page size, and speeding up page load times.
