Topics


  • Slow, Inaccurate and Brittle: How I Built The World's Worst Data Pipeline
    By: MK Barton
    Experience Level: Intermediate
    Length: 5 Minutes
    Description:

    "There is nothing so permanent as a temporary solution". Come learn how a combination of misunderstanding, bad assumptions, tech debt and general chaos created the world's worst data pipeline.

    It's slow. It's inaccurate and sadly it lived in production for 3 years. Learn from my mistakes!

  • Cropping Multiple Lens film photos with OpenCV
    By: Josh Martin
    Experience Level: Intermediate
    Length: 5 Minutes
    Description:

    Hello,

    I love film cameras. Especially multiple lens film cameras that take photos all at once or in a sequence. The true pain is getting my scans back from the film lab I use and a set of photos being put into one photo because of how the cameras take the photos in the first place.

    In this talk I will show how to perfectly crop a set of images into multiple images even if the vary in size.
