Fabrice Bellard

🇫🇷 🇬🇧

One-hour talk. What we did. What we did NOT do (hint: most of it). Erlang decisions, database decisions, the sticky note. Also: how I said no to ads for five years.

Four 90-minute sessions. We read Redis source together -- event loop, key expiration, the AOF. You walk away able to find a memory leak in anybody's C code. Bring a laptop and a kitchen light.

Salvatore Sanfilippo

🌐 🇬🇧 🇮🇹

Three sessions. Bring a real codebase. We find the patterns worth extracting, pull them into a gem, and ship both the product AND the library. The Basecamp-to-Rails move, but on your code.
