Real-life classical ciphers
Elonka goes over real-world examples of classical ciphers, some solved, some unsolved. Attendees can see some of the great advances on ciphers ranging from the Zodiac Killer cipher, solved after 50 years of trying, to the ciphers of Mary, Queen of Scots, whose encrypted messages were lost for centuries in a corner of the French National Library, to other remarkable ciphers used for communication over the last 200 years.
The Art & Science of Metawar
The Metaverse is the Most Powerful, Addictive, Reality Distortion Machine Ever Conceived… and it Can Predict the Future.
The metaverse is an evolving storytelling environment in which humans have congregated for millennia to experience alternate, immersive, and simulated realities, with or without technology. Storytelling is designed to influence mental and physical perceptions suiting the purposes of the content creators.
Metawar is the art of applying science to create and defend against the influence of alternate realities in the metaverse. What if we can longer rely on our senses to determine what is real and what is fiction?
My research into Metawar initially focused on metaversal technologies. Unexpectedly, it morphed into an intensely personal experience, triggering my own Metanoia, which had a profound impact on the entire Metawar Thesis.

GAME OVER
My Metanoia has been integral to the evolution of thinking about the synthesis of carbon-silicon technologies and the Venn of objective-subjective reality perception. Please, bring your thoughts so we can talk about how what being human even means as increasingly immersive metaverse experiences bend our sense of reality.
And, how we can protect ourselves, our children, and our reality.

Troubleshooting, it’s a mindset not a conclusion. .
Troubleshooting is often seen as fixing the problem, when in reality it should be seen as fixing the problem that caused the problem. Please join to hear about some general overarching rules for troubleshooting issues in systems that can help when you’ve run up against a problem and are not sure where to start.
Riding the Wavelength: Making the Most of Dark Fiber
Network-focused organizations with a presence in at least two locations will eventually run out of fiber pairs between those locations – usually at an inconvenient time. But what if I told you that, by combining multiple colors of light into one strand of fiber, you (yes, you) could pass terabits of data per second through one fiber strand? This talk will give you an overview of the wavelength-division techniques that enable us to squeeze every drop of capability out of our metropolitan networks, long-haul fiber links, undersea cables, and that one thing on the cover of Pink Floyd’s “The Dark Side of the Moon.” Preexisting general knowledge of fiber optics is not required, but basic knowledge of the concepts of light and color may be helpful.
Secure Spouse, Secure House
Are you tired of your spouse’s accounts getting compromised? Does their idea of a complex password look like ‘54321’? You are in love, but how do you get in line to be safe together? Well come join me on my talk where I share how I have created a security program for me and my spouse. I will discuss our approach to risk management, program development and maintaining it. This is meant to be a fun and educational talk around building a security program, but with a focus on family.

Whisker Watch: Leveraging Bluetooth LE Tracking to Monitor Your Cat
If you’ve dabbled with home automation then you’ve probably realized what a deep rabbit hole it can be. There’s so many different sensors you can integrate to collect data and find tune your home environment. Temperature sensors to keep the thermostat just right. Motion sensors switching lights on and off as you move from room to room. Unless you are a cat owner… Your cat doesn’t care about accurate sensor data. Nor does it care if it triggers a light sensor on the other side of the house, leaving you on the toilet in the dark. What do you do? Go back to flipping light switches like a savage? Or do you lean into the technology and incorporate Bluetooth LE based tracking of your cat so your home automation system knows when to ignore a motion trigger? The answer is obvious. Which is why I’ll be presenting my solution for real-time tracking of your household pets. And I promise lots of cat pictures and memes throughout the talk.

Towards Clean Code and Test Driven Development: a How-To Beginners Guide
This is an introduction into learning how to design your code towards being testable, and therefore also produce better code in the first place. Having worked in industry and taught at the university level I find that most developers, especially new ones, have difficulty designing testable code. This talk is aimed at allowing you to learn the basics of designing testable code and moving eventually towards the buzz words that you may have heard about: “Clean Code” and “Test Driven Development” . This talk will use Android and Kotlin as example platform/language, but the concepts are platform/language agnostic so all are welcome. All experience levels are welcome.
