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.

Learn how simple computer emulators can get beginners interested in computer programming, and help teach kids learning to program. In this presentation I will demonstrate how simple retro computers, like the WITCH, can be used to teach and interest kids in programming. The National Museum of Computing is looking to get emulators and modern replicas of the retro computers to aid education. Bring your laptop (optional). I have been lucky to be a part of making the WITCH-E Emulator, the educational emulator of the oldest currently working programmable digital computer in the world!
This presentation will provide an overview of some of the many new features in FreeNAS 9.3, including the new update manager, boot manager, certificate manager, VMware integration, webdav shares, and much more!

Your company or organization dutifully releases source code and contributes to the community, but you're still dependent upon proprietary software, even when perfectly good FOSS alternatives exist. If there's an open alternative, why aren't you using it? As a member of a project, what can you do to help other FOSS projects escape proprietary software and use your software instead?

Forget Waldo (or even Wally), what you really what to know is what's up with this 'Wayland' thing and where is it now. Come and learn about the replacement for X and how it is arriving in mobile, embedded and on the desktop. Jon will focus on the current state of Wayland and how developers can benefit from its use. He will help those who are starting brand new with Wayland get up to speed quickly, and guide you to a better understanding of the project, its impact, and how to use it.
