Playing with FIRE: Financial Independence/Retire Early
I'm not a financial advisor or an accountant, but I am a software developer who is on the path to FI (Financial Independence).
As technologists, our salaries put us in the enviable position to be able to build a perpetual our money making machine and achieve FI at an earlier age than most people.
In this talk, we'll learn about the FIRE movements and it's basic tenants. What is FI? What is the the 4% rule and how does it apply to me. How do I get started or how do I move to the next level? What "flavor" of FI is right for me: lean, chubby, fat, coast, barista, and more.
This talk is informational, and not intended to be financial advice.
Service Observability: An Introduction to Open Telemetry with Grafana and Spring Boot
As our microservice systems have grown in size and complexity, discovering and investigating issues has become more and more difficult. If you're willing to pay for it, there are plenty of choices (Datadog, Splunk, New Relic, etc.) to help. However, there are also open source solutions that can give you increased control and cut your costs.
In this talk we'll setup and explore a Grafana stack. Then we'll create some Spring Boot apps and configure them to share their log, metric, and trace data with Grafana.
At the end of the talk attendees will have a basic understanding of what Grafana is and how to get data into it. They should then be empowered to apply these lessons to add observability where there is none or replace expensive SAAS solutions with free open source alternatives.
Junit5 Parameterized Tests
Junit5 adds quite a few new features, but in my opinion Parameterized Tests are the most useful. We'll take a look at how to setup up a parameterized test, the different argument sources to feed your tests data, and using argument converters
