MY TALKS
Distributed Workers System for Lifting Any Heavy Algorithm
Software Engineering, Backend, Professional Development, Data / AI / ML, Leadership, Innovation, Inspirational
You’d think APIs are simple.
You send a request and get back a response, what’s so complicated about that?
But sometimes the response takes too long to compute.
Google recommends you aim for a response time lower than 200 milliseconds, everything over half a second is an issue.
For example If you developed a Deep Learning algorithm and you want to share it with the world, you need to develop an API exposing it. But you obviously can’t compute the algorithm for 10 minutes before returning a response from the API. No user will wait that long, and you most certainly should not use an expensive GPU that has a great compute power in order to serve the API requests.
In this talk we’ll explore tools for solving this problem and building a scalable system.
We will get to know Celery, which is an open-source, asynchronous, distributed task queue. It will save you blood, sweat and tears when trying to set up a distributed workers system to perform tasks for your API.
Things LLMs Can't Teach You About LLMs
Data / AI / ML, Software Engineering, Soft Skills, Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Inspirational, Innovation
Once, people had to know how to use encyclopedias and world atlas books to search for information. Then came online search engines and that skill was no longer needed. Large Language Models (such as GPT) are rapidly changing the way we retrieve data, and are changing the world as we know it at an unprecedented pace. To keep pace with the wave, join this talk and explore some of the most interesting and innovative ways in which engineering managers can utilize Large Language Models for their needs. You'll find out how to transform your current skills and practices of product development, and engineering to fit what's coming next. We'll also cover some of the disadvantages and risks associated with integrating LLMs.
BTW, The talk's content is not generated by LLMs as it aims to provide valuable insights beyond their capabilities!
Game of Life - Code Retreat
Software Engineering, Backend
Explore the fascinating world of the Game of Life Code Retreat led by Nir Orman, Engineering Manager at Wix Stores. The primary goals of this hands-on workshop are to have fun, improve coding skills using Test-Driven Development (TDD), pairing, and other techniques, and encourage participants to take risks and experiment. The workshop comprises coding sessions, each lasting approximately 45 minutes, followed by a unique constraint for added challenge and enjoyment. Participants will engage in pair programming, deleting their code after each iteration, switching pairs, and engaging in retrospectives to reflect on collaboration methods, design decisions, and challenges faced. The Game of Life, a 2D infinite grid where cells interact based on specific rules, serves as the backdrop for this coding adventure. Join the Code Retreat and enhance your coding skills through a combination of learning, experimentation, and collaborative coding sessions.
I Am Remarkable Workshop
Professional Development, Leadership, Women in Tech, Diversity and Inclusion, Inspirational
Join us for an empowering workshop, "I Am Remarkable," designed to celebrate and amplify the voices of individuals in the workplace. Led by a formal facilitator, this session aims to cultivate self-confidence and promote self-promotion, especially for underrepresented groups. We'll explore the importance of recognizing and vocalizing personal and professional achievements, fostering an environment where everyone feels empowered to share their successes. Through interactive activities and open discussions, participants will develop valuable skills to articulate their accomplishments effectively, combat imposter syndrome, and contribute to a more inclusive workplace culture. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting your career journey, this workshop provides a supportive space to embrace your achievements and proudly declare, "I Am Remarkable." Don't miss this opportunity to boost your self-confidence and make your accomplishments known.
