Aslam Khan at myConf 2023
Maximizing your context Have you ever wondered why some people make the most of a situation? The same question applies to companies, communities and even countries. I have tried to answer this question by looking at my own life and work - the circumstances under which I made decisions that worked out better or worse. And I tried to answer the question again for people with whom I have interacted over a significant period. There is something about maximising the variables in specific contexts that leads to success. In this talk, I share my thoughts on maximising the context in which we find ourselves, and when we do so, we maximise value for others too.

Erik Corry at myConf 2023
Virtual machines in history Join Erik for a historical view of his work on virtual machines, regular expression engines, garbage collection and language development that empathises with the users. We start the journey with the V8 JavaScript engine (with surprising anecdotes from the early days). Then we move on to Dart VM and end the talk with Toit VM, the new tiny VM that makes embedded devices feel like real computers. During this, he will talk about how your tools should not hate you, rant more about tools that stab you in the back, especially Golang, and end up with how the Toit GC manages your memory without stealing your memory.

Jan Bosch at myConf 2024
Stop wasting your R&D budget! Start modeling value and experiment! Research by us and others shows that somewhere between half and two-thirds of all features in a typical system are never used or used so seldomly that these should not have been built in the first place. In addition, 70-90% of all resources in R&D work on commodity functionality, rather than differentiation and innovation. The current practices around product management and R&D are incredibly wasteful. In this talk, I present an alternative approach organized around quantitative modeling of value, experimental development approaches such as A/B testing, and continuous monitoring of value delivered to customers in operational software.

Kevlin Henney at myConf 2025
Ye Cannae Change the Laws of Physics Software is executable fiction. Software development is about constructing narratives, drawing from a broad palette of paradigms and technologies, married to our understanding of the needs and wants for a system. Abstraction allows us to simplify and reify the complexity of the world into a formal description that we continually update. Abstraction allows us to ignore things about the world and about computer systems that are irrelevant or inconvenient. But there are limits to the enchantment of code and our ability to maintain illusions. When the rubber hits the road and the packet hits the network we find universal limits are there to keep it real. Nothing can be instantaneous or infinite. Not all computations can be reversed. Not everything is computable. Not everything can be known. Every computation costs time and energy. In this talk we'll explore the metaphors and realities of the physical world and how they play out in our software systems. About Kevlin Kevlin is an independent consultant, trainer, speaker and writer. His development interests and work with companies cover programming, practice and people. He has contributed to open- and closed-source codebases, been a columnist for a number of magazines and sites, and been on far too many committees (it has been said that "a committee is a cul-de-sac down which ideas are lured and then quietly strangled"). Kevlin is also co-author of two volumes in the Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture series, editor of 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know, and co-editor of 97 Things Every Java Programmer Should Know.
