Join us for a Git presentation featuring Rusty
Rusty Phillips has been a polyglot developer for over 20 years (and Java to some degree during all of that time), and has spent that time specializing
in not specializing - learning as much as possible in almost every
area of computer science and computer engineering. One of the few
areas that he has specialized in is configuring his environment to
suit the work that he's doing.
THE GIT STUFF:
1. Overview of version control features
- Locking checkout vs non-locking checkout
- distributed vs server-client
- Merge advantages of distributed
- Large binary disadvantage of distributed version control.
2. Git setup:
- ssh public/private keys; using ~/.ssh/config
- github, gitlab, bitbucket. (gitlab for demo)
- .gitconfig setup.
3. branches
4. commit vs push
5. fetch vs pull
6. The dangerous, common commands:
rebase, cherry-pick
7. Other important commands:
rm, reset, stash
8. merge vs mergetool, diff vs difftool
DEMO - commits with conflicts.
Other important areas:
1. Stealing dotfiles from the internet
(mine: tmux + nvim + oh-my-zsh + powerline).
2. CI/CD for gitlab via yaml file.
Stay tuned for details. Let me know if you’ll help out by sponsoring pizza. Thanks, Mike Levin

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Two years after releasing the GA version of InfluxData’s enterprise edition, their open-source version also reached that level of maturity. Conceptualised for real-time workloads and ease of running, the core version leaves aside features like long-term storage optimisations, compaction or high availability (HA), read replicas, or fine-grained access controls.
By Olimpiu PopThe popular tj-actions/changed-files GitHub Action used by thousands of repositories recently compromised those repositories, exposing a critical weakness in how open-source Actions are published and consumed.
By Matt FosterTeena Idnani explains the core concepts of quantum computing, its transformative potential across industries (pharmaceuticals, finance, etc.), and the current state of quantum technology. She addresses the threats (breaking RSA encryption) and opportunities, offering practical guidance on how software developers, architects, and engineering leaders can prepare for the coming quantum revolution.
By Teena IdnaniAt QCon London 2025, Vanderbijl unveiled how domain-driven design transformed a chaotic healthcare platform into a coherent business architecture. Through innovative strategies like "Take That" and "Robbie Williams," the team tackled architectural complexity, emphasizing adaptability and continuous improvement. This journey illustrates DDD as an evolving process essential for sustainable growth.
By Steef-Jan WiggersIn a talk at QCon London, Rachael Wonnacott explained the challenges in building a developer platform in an organisation with legacy processes and how a golden path leading to either a Kubernetes Hotel or a Public Cloud House might be necessary.
