Speakers 📢

Charlotte Zhao, "Emotional Fitness Sandbox"

Recent psychological research from Harvard University by Shawn Achor found that happiness fuels success and not the other way round. Best news of all is that contentment can be exercised and worked on, much like going to the gym to cultivate a healthy mental and emotional lifestyle. The effects spill over into a creative, productive and fulfilling team environment, as well as areas of our personal life.This talk is a snippet from a workshop that aims to provide the tools required to create and maintain emotional fitness.

Michelle Garrett, "HTTP Status Codes (the weird and wonderful)"

The basics of HTTP status codes, how internet standards are created, and a brief delve into the weirdest status codes of them all ☕️ 🙅 💁

Lightning talks ⚡️

Marilyn Magnusen, "Asking questions"

+ The importance of asking questions
+ How to ask questions
+ How questions guide our learning journey
+ How questions shape the products/services we provide

Jessica Ete, "Why I Can't Quit Vim"

There is no "best" syntax editor nor perfect prescription of tools you should use to write code.

If you've never heard of Vim, it's described as "a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and changing any kind of text very efficient. It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple OS X."

It's also a tool that intimidates a lot of new coders (including me!). Despite this, I choose to use it as my text editor while working on projects as a software engineer at Deliveroo. Tonight I'll share why and observations learnt along the way.

We're looking for lightning talks! We'd especially love to hear from codebar students. Contact us at [email protected].
