===Technology 26: The Once and Future IndieWeb=== | |||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/mozt/ Tantek Çelik] | |||
* Description: | |||
<BLOCKQUOTE> In the beginning, the Web was a simple thing. A bit of HTML, running on a server you probably had root access to, and maybe even had running under your desk. Fast forward 20 years, and most of the Web's content resides in silos, like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Our web sites have become Tumblrs, or blogs hosted at Medium or Wordpress.com. Our browsers are becoming clients focused on sharing to closed social media silos more than the open web. | |||
But this poses huge challenges for the privacy, longevity, integrity, and ultimately ownership of the content we create. In this presentation, Tantek Çelik challenges us to re-imagine the "IndieWeb" from long ago, and how a growing number of people, open source projects, and open standards are reclaiming & strengthening the open web.</BLOCKQUOTE> | |||
===Technology 27: Release Security in TaskCluster=== | |||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/aki/ Aki Sasaki] | |||
* Description: A presentation of the taskcluster chain of trust for Firefox releases: how we create and verify the release audit trail from a released binary back to the revision in-tree. | |||
===Technology 28: Rust Open Office Hours=== | |||
* Presenter: Jonathan Turner | |||
* Description: This is a "bring-your-own-laptop" hands-on lab in an "office hours" style. There will be problems to work on, members of the Rust team to help answer questions and give 1:1 help, and participants can also bring their own Rust questions. Sometimes with technologies like Rust, it's helpful to have that personalized help to have an "a ha!" moment to get over the hump and continue your learning. This lab aims to help facilitate those moments. | |||
===Technology 29: Mastering Rust=== | |||
* Presenter: [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/nmatsakis/ Niko Matsakis] | |||
* Description: This session allows you to master Rust's lifetime feature. The session is for people who have spent a little time with Rust, but they need not yet be deep into the Rust world. The session aims to provide hands-on support for learning through a combination of presentation and activities that help solidify the key concepts. With the understanding of Rust's lifetimes, a lot of the "mystery" of how Rust works will become active working knowledge for the attendee. | |||
===Technology 30: How Code Creates Community=== | |||
* Presenters: Andrew Losowsky, David Erwin, Gabriele Rodríguez, [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/jeff1/ Jeff Nelson], Samantha Hankins, Sydette Harry | |||
* Description: Come and contribute to a new Mozilla platform for online community. MoFo's [http://coralproject.net/ Coral Project] is building tools to improve on-site dialog for news organizations around the world, and we need your help. In this session, you'll be part of solving issues around our code and our platform, and learn how we're structuring our work to enable best practice around community norms and development. Ideal participants have interest or experience in Go/React/GraphQL, or in online community development - but if you're just interested, you should come and take part. Free stickers for every attendee. | |||
