Title: "Foiling Json's Schemes"
Description: " I don't know who this Je's贸n person is; but I see them in my sleep, out of the corners of my eyes in the dark, following me late at night. It whispers to me, 'build a json schema faker... it will be easy'. Come and watch me pushed to the edge of my sanity as we find how how true that statement exactly is and what this Je's貌n person has in store for us!"

Title: Failure Happens. Your Code Shouldn't Care.
Description: As software engineers, we know our code will be retried, restarted and run more than once. Durable Execution makes this manageable by letting us write reliable workflows that recover automatically from crashes and restarts without defensive plumbing. I鈥檒l explain how it works and prove it with a live demo that treats failure as just another code path.
