This year second versions of Symfony and Zend Framework are being released, and they are dropping compatibility with older PHP versions than 5.3. Many libraries that take full advantage of PHP 5.3 features and were written from scratch with today's best practices are also appearing. Git and particularly GitHub usage is rising in the PHP community. It is time for everyone to move forward, at the risk of being left behind. Welcome the new PHP era!
OSGi tales from the trenches discusses Day Software's experience using Apache Felix for a major rewrite of their content management products.

While Docker has enabled an unprecedented velocity of software production, it is all too easy to spin out of control. A promotion-based model is required to control and track the flow of Docker images as much as it is required for a traditional software development lifecycle. New tools often introduce new paradigms. We will examine the patterns and the antipatterns for Docker image management, and what impact the new tools have on the battle-proven paradigms of the software development lifecycle.

Tales from the OSGi Trenches - Bertrand Delacretaz
This document summarizes Bertrand Delacrétaz's presentation on Adobe's experience using OSGi as the foundation for its CQ5 content management system. Some key points included:
- OSGi provided strong modularity and dynamic loading/unloading of bundles that enabled many plugins and extensions. Declarative services and clean OSGi APIs made development easier.
- Testing and unpredictable bundle startup order presented challenges. Integration between many bundles was difficult to test.
- While OSGi enabled many benefits, it also brought complexity due to its asynchronous nature and requirement for strict version management between bundles. Tooling has improved but OSGi concepts remain unfamiliar to many.

Quality Patents: Patents That Stand the Test of Time
Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality.
Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank?
** Episode Overview **
In this first episode of our quality series, Kristen Hansen and the panel discuss:
⦿ What do we mean when we say patent quality?
⦿ Why is patent quality important?
⦿ How to balance quality and budget
⦿ The importance of searching, continuations, and draftsperson domain expertise
⦿ Very practical tips, tricks, examples, and Kristen’s Musts for drafting quality applications

Sapporo.js is a community for people interested in JavaScript that meets in Sapporo, Japan. The document discusses NotHub, a notification client for GitHub that allows users to receive notifications from GitHub. It installs on a user's computer and sets up to receive notifications when events like pushes or pull requests occur on GitHub repositories a user follows. The presentation encourages attendees to try out NotHub to more easily stay up to date on GitHub activity.
The document describes Bruno Chung's design project to create a scorpion robot using a BIOLOID kit. Bruno began by learning how to assemble BIOLOID robots by building examples like a crocodile mouth and attacking duck. He then practiced programming simple behaviors. Bruno improved his skills by adding sensors and programming more complex motions for robots like a crossing gate and race car. After extensive practice assembling and programming smaller robots, Bruno was ready to focus on designing and building his scorpion robot over multiple iterations, culminating in a robot that could mimic a scorpion's attacking behavior.
This document describes how to build a Jabber bot that can process Twitter messages serialized as XMPP messages. It provides instructions on setting up the necessary Ruby gems, creating a daemon to serialize tweets, writing specs to test the bot's behavior, and implementing the bot client to apply rules to messages. Sample Twitter messages in XMPP format are also included. The goal is to allow others to build their own bot armies that can process tweets and perform actions.

Best Practices for Effectively Running dbt in Airflow.pdfTatiana Al-Chueyr
As a popular open-source library for analytics engineering, dbt is often used in combination with Airflow. Orchestrating and executing dbt models as DAGs ensures an additional layer of control over tasks, observability, and provides a reliable, scalable environment to run dbt models.
This webinar will cover a step-by-step guide to Cosmos, an open source package from Astronomer that helps you easily run your dbt Core projects as Airflow DAGs and Task Groups, all with just a few lines of code. We’ll walk through:
- Standard ways of running dbt (and when to utilize other methods)
- How Cosmos can be used to run and visualize your dbt projects in Airflow
- Common challenges and how to address them, including performance, dependency conflicts, and more
- How running dbt projects in Airflow helps with cost optimization

Fluttercon 2024: Showing that you care about security - OpenSSF Scorecards fo...Chris Swan
Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge.
You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter.
The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.
Understanding Insider Security Threats: Types, Examples, Effects, and Mitigat...Bert Blevins
Today’s digitally connected world presents a wide range of security challenges for enterprises. Insider security threats are particularly noteworthy because they have the potential to cause significant harm. Unlike external threats, insider risks originate from within the company, making them more subtle and challenging to identify.
