Corey Quinn

In the spirit of the presenter's previous "Terrible Ideas in Git" talk at SCaLE14x, Corey once again takes to the stage to demonstrate an increasingly prevalent technology via counterexample. There's no better way to learn a technology than to implement it hilariously incorrectly–and thanks to this this talk, you don't even have to do it in your own production environment by mistake.

Convincingly given by a man in a suit, this presentation covers what technical interviewers are trying to learn about you, how to use their questions to figure out if you're likely to be a good fit for the job, and what happens when interviews go hilariously awry.

dapted from his class "The Screaming Horrors of Git," Corey takes us on a magical tour through the (mis)use of Git to do things its creators never intended. In this humorously delivered exploration of one of the open source community's more ubiquitous tools, Corey demonstrates that a finely crafted wrench makes a barely acceptable hammer if you hold it wrong.

You can't swing a dead cat without hitting someone who's telling you why Docker is amazing and if you're not using a microservices based architecture, you're a fool.

This talk covers why you should in fact hit them.

Thought Leaders. DevOps Heroes. Public Speakers. We listen to them as they talk about their solutions, their approaches, and their inevitable triumphs. But are we starting down a dark path, as we forget that 'what makes a great talk' and 'what makes sense for your environment' may not be the same thing? 

AWS Lambda is the most widespread implementation of “Serverless.” In this talk, come explore what happens when your Lambda usage goes hilariously wrong– and what to do about it.
