➤➤ Static Analysis with Go: A Practitioner's Guide - Amit Davidson

Static code analyzers are valuable tools that are easy to write and serve as low-effort bug catchers. Wonder how your IDE knows what it should be yelling at you? Want to make sure no bug (well, many bugs) make it into production? This talk will guide you in creating your own analyzer in Go!

➤➤ How I Made a Powerful Caching System Using Go - Sylvain Combraque

I’m Træfik user since v1.4 but there was no caching system. I scrolled over the internet to know if any solution exists but nothing appear then I decided to write my own Træfik cache system.

➤➤ #VisualizeIT: Learn to Sketch, then Sketch to Learn! - Nitya Narasimhan

Creativity enhances communication and builds meaningful connections that will help us consume, retain, and recall, information better. This is the core premise and message behind “VisualizeIT” – a talk that is meant to motivate you to think about visual storytelling in tech contexts, not just to make complex technology concepts feel more familiar, but to enhance the learning journey for the 65% of us who are visual learners.

In this talk, we’ll look at my visual storytelling journey from two perspectives: “learn to sketch” focused on a simple toolkit to get you started on visual note-taking, and “sketch to learn” focused on examples of how the toolkit can be used to improve our written and spoken communications, while also combining fun with functionality.
