Heads up on Headless
Are you ready to serve content to people’s watches, refrigerators and cars? By 2020, Gartner predicts there will be 26 Billion IOT devices connected to the internet. Many of these would need personalized content pushed to them. Leverage your favourite tech to present content to your end-users using Content as a Service (CaaS) rather than being locked into the tech of monolithic Content Management Systems.

• What do defect severity and priority really mean?
• How to get testers to write better defects
• Things testers need when a defect is returned to them

Let’s fly a drone
Last time we checked a few cool demos around how JavaScript’s ecosystem has changed and machine learning is now available in browser.This time we want to take it a bit further and fly a drone using machine learning, all from within the browser.We will transfer learn a model, train it to recognise certain words, and use those to fly our drone. How’s that sounds?

NixOs / NixOps
Learn what makes an immutable operating system and what uses cases exist for them. We'll then go through a demo using nix in a WSL environment to build a small program while explaining what happening under the hood. Then finish up with some use cases in which NixOs can be useful.
