Day 1 Lightning Sessions

Given that the event was more successful than originally anticipated, I rented a second room for the social hacking day (Day 1) to host a series of lightning talks. Each talk will be 20mins long, including Q&A, with a 10min break between sessions. Signing up for a slot can be done in a self-service way by modifying this spreadsheet. Any Day 1 attendee is welcome to sign up for a slot and the topic can be about anything you like, just please keep it marketing and crypto-scam free. Thanks!

SYCL 24 Day 1 Lightning Sessions Schedule
Sheet1 Day 1 will have a second room setup with 50 seats for short talks. Each slot is up to 20m long, ideally split evenly between 10m of talk and 10m of Q&A (but that's up to you). Between slots there's a 10m break. Signing up for a talk slot can be done in a self-service way: just put your...

is it expected to have slides or no slides for this one?

I would say, "no espexations" so if you want to just show some code in an editor, feel free I would only recommend to practice the talk in both cases because talk slots are pretty small and if you haven't practiced (especially if you don't have slides, which do kinda help keep you on schedule) then you will easily risk going over time

Will there be a laptop for presenters? I do not trust my laptop to work without any issues. 😅 And one follow-up question: Will this be live-streamed/recorded as well?

sorry no laptop if you create something easily shareable like google slides I'm sure somebody will be able to offer their laptop to run your presentation no live streaming nor recording

would anyone be interested to hear about advanced use cases for infrastructure management and deployment in code? It is not Zig related per say. I got so tired of all the toolings with their own DSL in YAML/HCL that a colleague and I wrote https://github.com/volvo-cars/lingon. It is in Go but the concepts I want to talk about has less to do with Go and more with how to navigate the maze of infrastructure at scale.

did you manage to secure a slot? if not, would you like me to free up mine for you?

there isn't a free spot anymore, that is very kind of you to give your spot away @kubkon , much appreciated 😄. Is your talk the first one ? "Rants of the MachOMan, or linking gems across OSes"
kubkon
kubkon•8mo ago
Yep, removed it and put your Discord handle in it Feel free to actually fill it now

awesome! Thank you very much. Don't worry, there is rant in what I'm going to say as well. One of the reason I asked to speak is that, this isn't recorded
kubkon

Looking forward to it!

If anyone has anything more Zig related, I am also up to give up my spot.

I'll have to retract my submission, as I've realised I'll have no time to prepare for it. @kubkon if you are still up for some ranting, we would love to hear it!

I'll leave it for someone else to claim for now, and maybe claim it if no one else does. I am also quite short on any spare time these days as got a newborn in the house

One speaker discovered last minute that they couldn't be present tomorrow so their slot was freed. The 14:00 slot is now up for grabs. Not a lot of time, but if anybody was tempted before already, this might be your time to shine :caret: You will still have tomorrow's morning to prepare in case.

time to shine
or, if we stick with the lightning metaphor, it's your time to strike âš¡ I'm announcing in the tables room 5minutes before the lightning talks start
