5 Mistakes of Massive CSS

jQuery is drawing newcomers to JavaSCript in droves. As a community, we have an obligation -- and it is in our interest -- to help these newcomers understand where jQuery ends and JavaScript begins.

The document discusses mapping the changes to buildings and places over time using OpenStreetMap. It proposes tagging buildings and attributes with start_date and end_date to filter what is shown on maps for different time periods. Scripts are presented to preprocess the OSM data into decade-specific files and render maps for each decade. Challenges are noted around normalizing date formats and tracking attribute changes over time.

Bruce Lawson's South By Southwest 2011 talk: philosophy, 3 methodologies and optimisation tips and tricks for making web sites that work across devices.

HTML5 is an umbrella term for new HTML elements and JavaScript APIs that provide richer semantics and interactions on the web. Some key features of HTML5 include new elements like <video>, <audio>, and <canvas>, offline application caching, local storage, and geolocation. HTML5 aims to make the web more app-like without plugins by standardizing media playback, graphics, offline support, and other capabilities in a way that works across browsers. The specification is developed through the joint efforts of browser vendors to provide a common set of features that work consistently on different browsers without needing plugins.

The document discusses emerging web technologies for page layout, including multi-column layout, flexbox, grid layout, extended floats, regions, and templates.

The JavaScript community is one of the most vibrant and fun groups I've ever been lucky enough to be a part of. Like any vibrant community, sometimes people don't play nicely. In this session, I will discuss what it has been like to be shy *and* be on twitter, mailing lists, and open source. I'll talk about my experiences consulting on massive CSS overhauls, and ways to defeat trolls -- including your own inner troll! I'll also share a timing attack for your brain that might just surprise you.

Presentation by Irina Shumadieva on Open Educational Resources (OER) at the SFK12 Software Freedom Kosova Conference 2012

If you have an established product which came about before the widespread use of the unit and system testing, then you know the problem. The old code cannot be made testable without a significant effort of throwing it away and writing it anew. What does it mean for the QA? It means endless repetitions of manual test runs. Sounds like fun? Yeah.. Nah! In this presentation you will find two ways to make legacy applications testable through automation: an easy one, and a good one. The main benefit they provide is a basis for the further refactoring of the application, without damaging it. Think of it as a Catch-22: you can't make your old app code testable without severely changing it, and you can't be sure that your changes work because you have no tests to verify them. If you are a QA and you work with older apps and systems doing a lot of manual testing, then this is the topic for you. This talk was given at ITx 2016 in Wellington, New Zealand, for Testing Professionals Network.

Talk provided at ASQF meetup "Fachgruppentreffen" in Braunschweig, 18th August 2016 In the last decade, the speed of our industry has increased greatly. Agile Development, DevOps and Continuous Delivery are the main drivers for this paradigm shift which has now become widely accepted. Ten years ago, it was common to only release a couple of new versions a year. Today, there are companies delivering hundreds of software deployments per day. This isn't only true in IT, but also e.g. for Tesla-Automobile, which delivers its software updates a few times a week. Where does quality happen when we're releasing this often? Is it possible to have proper quality management and is there enough time for testing? How can we reduce what could be weeks of testing to deliver new features to our clients on a daily basis? Alex is a long-term enthusiast for this topic. Based on his experiences with various products and companies, he'll share his insights into the mystery of "faster testing". The key questions are: How can we guarantee quality When do we test? How do we test? How often do we test and what don't we test? and finallyt: Who does the testing? Together we will discuss our common problems, approaches and best practices.

We keep thinking we can write better CSS if we just try harder, that the next site will be clean and stay that way. This presentation shows that in fact, messy CSS is the direct result of our worst best-practices. We need to reexamine those assumptions with an eye to practicality and scalability as well as accessibility, standards, and fabulous design.

The document is a presentation about developing a digital content strategy for an organization. It discusses how web content used to be poorly designed and lacked strategy in 2000 but has improved over the past decade. The presentation recommends organizations first learn about their current content situation by auditing what they have and who is responsible for it. It then suggests planning the new strategy by analyzing user needs and competitors before creating a content structure and plan. The key steps are to get started, learn, and take ownership of the content strategy.

Refactoring Trulia’s UI with SASS, OOCSS, and handlebars. My slides from jsconf 2013. Lot's of yummy details about the performance improvements we were able to make.

Let’s admit it, the tools for writing CSS aren’t very advanced. For the most part, the people who write tools don’t know about CSS and the people who know about CSS don’t write tools. Quite a conundrum! In this session, you’ll learn about good tools that can make development faster and maintenance easier. We’ll also talk a bit about where we can go from here. What tools do we need as sites are becoming more and more complex? We need to get beyond tools whose primary goal is to avoid hand-coding and realize that, as our techniques for writing CSS become more powerful, our tools can too! Session will include: * Validators * Preprocessors * Finding dead rules * Linting * CSS3 gradient tools * Performance measurement tools * Unit testing

The cascade is a poker game, but we've been playing our cards all wrong. Here Nicole suggests we stop trying to play to win to prevent code bloat, and simplify the cascade, using the order of the rulesets to allow overrides.

From Nicole's presentation at the CSS Summit. This is brand new research regarding efficient CSS selector design. Practicing the rules outlined here will make your CSS lean, your site fast, and your maintenance minimal. A beautiful combination for people concerned with building performance into their sites.

You've got a sneaking suspicion that design impacts performance. What next? Your engineers know nothing about design and your designers know nothing about performance. How can you get everyone on the same page? Which design flaws must you absolutely avoid? How do engineers slow designs with poor CSS? This presentation covers the best practices in design and OO CSS for fast, maintainable sites. * Abstraction * Flexibility * Grids * Location dependent styles Velocity Conference, 2009

This document discusses object-oriented CSS (OOCSS) as an evolution of CSS that makes it more powerful. OOCSS involves creating reusable CSS objects rather than page-specific rules, setting good global defaults, abstracting reusable elements, separating container and content, and using multiple classes to simulate inheritance. This allows for more scalable, maintainable and performant CSS code. Some best practices of OOCSS include creating semantic object classes like .heading rather than styling specific elements directly. The document provides examples of OOCSS principles and their benefits.

Nicole Sullivan gives a presentation on designing fast websites. She discusses why performance matters, how websites have grown more complex over time, and how poor performance can negatively impact businesses. She provides several best practices for optimizing websites, such as creating reusable components, using consistent styles, making modules transparent, optimizing images through sprites and compression, avoiding non-standard fonts and using columns instead of rows.

The 7 Habits of Exceptional Performance discusses techniques for optimizing website performance. It recommends flushing the buffer early, using GET requests for AJAX, preloading components, avoiding filters, measuring performance metrics, and balancing new features with performance improvements. High performance should be baked into the development process from the start. Key metrics to track include page weight, response time, and HTTP requests.

The document discusses 20 additional best practices for improving web performance beyond the original 14 recommendations from YSlow. It covers techniques like flushing the buffer early, splitting components for post-loading, preloading necessary assets, reducing unnecessary DOM elements, optimizing images through techniques like converting to smaller file formats and using CSS sprites, and designing for mobile performance. The document provides examples and case studies to illustrate the recommendations and cites additional resources on web performance.

Stream processing is a crucial component of modern data infrastructure, but constructing an efficient and scalable stream processing system can be challenging. Decoupling compute and storage architecture has emerged as an effective solution to these challenges, but it can introduce high latency issues, especially when dealing with complex continuous queries that necessitate managing extra-large internal states. In this talk, we focus on addressing the high latency issues associated with S3 storage in stream processing systems that employ a decoupled compute and storage architecture. We delve into the root causes of latency in this context and explore various techniques to minimize the impact of S3 latency on stream processing performance. Our proposed approach is to implement a tiered storage mechanism that leverages a blend of high-performance and low-cost storage tiers to reduce data movement between the compute and storage layers while maintaining efficient processing. Throughout the talk, we will present experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in mitigating the impact of S3 latency on stream processing. By the end of the talk, attendees will have gained insights into how to optimize their stream processing systems for reduced latency and improved cost-efficiency.

Cybersecurity is a major concern in today's connected digital world. Threats to organizations are constantly evolving and have the potential to compromise sensitive information, disrupt operations, and lead to significant financial losses. Traditional cybersecurity techniques often fall short against modern attackers. Therefore, advanced techniques for cyber security analysis and anomaly detection are essential for protecting digital assets. This blog explores these cutting-edge methods, providing a comprehensive overview of their application and importance.
