Presentation: "Techniques That Still Work no Matter How Hard We Try to Forget Them"
Time: Monday 13:30 - 14:30
Location: Store Sal
As an industry we have a short memory, shorter attention span and an obsession with the new. Or at least, the new-looking. As a result we sometimes fail to "hold the gains" as the state of the art advances.
This session reviews some old fashioned development techniques that still have value, and demonstrate their place in the contemporary development world. Things forgotten, things mis-remembered, things we're going through the pain of re-discovery. Things that every working programmer should know.
