Railshöck at Localsearch

While April has the most interesting weather, we'll gather at Localsearch for a set of even more interesting presentations:

Can x3 (Alessandro Rodi, Maintainer)
CanCanCan 3.0 is out. Let's deep dive in the new features and how this version improves performance by removing associations preloading and by implementing a "rules compressor" which removes unnecessary rules automatically.

Smart HTTP Clients (Sebastian Pape, Engineer):
What if you could use Rails ActiveRecord over the network? Actually you can, thanks to the ruby gem LHS. Get some big thoughts about how to easily navigate a heterogeneous enterprise api service landscape with smart HTTP clients.

Input from another world (Samuel Steiner, Sales):
And now for something completely different: This is an introduction of how to overcome politeness façades towards more honest conversations. Get some tips on how to steer a conversation into a direction which benefits all participants the most – both in sales but also personal relationships.

The RSpec includes matcher in depth (Josua Schmid, Engineer):
We'll examine together how one specific RSpec matcher came into existence and how it works in detail. Expect to see some software design patterns and application examples.
