"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Future Visions: Predictions to Guide and Time Tech Innovation, Peter Udo DiehlPeter Udo Diehl
I'm excited to share my latest predictions on how AI, robotics, and other technological advancements will reshape industries in the coming years. The slides explore the exponential growth of computational power, the future of AI and robotics, and their profound impact on various sectors.
Why this matters:
The success of new products and investments hinges on precise timing and foresight into emerging categories. This deck equips founders, VCs, and industry leaders with insights to align future products with upcoming tech developments. These insights enhance the ability to forecast industry trends, improve market timing, and predict competitor actions.
Highlights:
▪ Exponential Growth in Compute: How $1000 will soon buy the computational power of a human brain
▪ Scaling of AI Models: The journey towards beyond human-scale models and intelligent edge computing
▪ Transformative Technologies: From advanced robotics and brain interfaces to automated healthcare and beyond
▪ Future of Work: How automation will redefine jobs and economic structures by 2040
With so many predictions presented here, some will inevitably be wrong or mistimed, especially with potential external disruptions. For instance, a conflict in Taiwan could severely impact global semiconductor production, affecting compute costs and related advancements. Nonetheless, these slides are intended to guide intuition on future technological trends.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

12. Points to note
• Latencies between AZ’s are varying
• Frequently evaluate->adapt->automate
• Bigger EC2 instance types have better IO
performance ~ replication lag
• Data Charges apply between AZ
• EBS volumes are AZ specific -> Take 12
snapshots to use in other AZ’s
13. Points to note
• RDS hot standby takes ~3 minutes for
RDS Master Elevation in event of failure
• Have RDS Read Replica’s in Multiple AZ
for HA
• Leverage RDS Read Replica Elevation
• Deployment & Monitoring challenges 13
remain in auto scaled environment
15. Work Load
• Reserve your capacity – RI
• Software licenses depending upon MAC
address / ENI
• Deployment practices

16. Deployment Challenges and Practices
1. AMI (S3 & EBS
Backed) have EC2
regional scope. Need
Amazon
Route 53 to be created if not
present in that
region
EC2 EC2 2. EBS has AZ scope
Chef
3. Automated
Deployment using
Chef or Puppet
(recommended)
Cloud Formation (CF)

4. RightScale
Templates will ease
the complexity

• Regulatory impact when data is
geographically distributed across
continents
• Data Synchronization patterns
• Other Data Challenges

18. Data Synchronization Patterns
Pattern 12: RDS Replication
USA Europe
1. RDS provides Multi-
AZ standby
2. RDS currently does
not provide Sync
across Amazon EC2
regions

21. Data Challenges
• S3 is accessible from another region , but
• Latency ?
• Data charges ?
• S3 programmatic replication across
regions (recommended)
• Distribution media & static contents
through Cloudfront CDN
• Cache replication across regions – Not
recommended
21
• Cache Warming inside regions suggested
22. Network
• NTP sync the regions involved
• Monitoring – use multiple levels
• CloudWatch, Nagios, Ganglia, Pingdom
• NewRelic
• LBR vs DDR
• Uniform ElastiCache Cluster Names
• Replication through NAT / IPSEC
• HA of IPSEC /NAT Layers
• Avoid EIP/ENI hardcoding in 3rd party
services 22
23. Latency Based Routing vs Directional DNS Routing
Pattern 17: Latency based Routing (LBR)
1. ELB is regional Scope
2. LBR is suitable for
Active-Active setup
Amazon
Route 53
Active Active 3. LBR might need bi
ELB ELB directional data sync
depending upon use

Pattern 18: Directional DNS Routing 1. For Active – Passive
Akamai / setup Directional
UltraDNS DNS is preferred
Active Passive 2. Akamai, UltraDNS
ELB ELB can do the job

24. Replication & HA of NAT/ IPSEC Layers
