What did we see?
Below you will find a list of the presentations I attended, with a link to the summary of the talk and the video(once they’re finished rendering them).
Saturday
- State of Go
- Great talk by Maartje Eyskens about what is going on in the Golang language.
- The inner workings of Go Generics
- Very interesting presentation about a former java programmer about how generics eventually made it into Golang.

- A very hot topic currently, who owns the data of AI?
- Panel: When is an AI system free/open?

- Building the next generation of Cloud Native Database
- Nice explanation of TiDB, and a call to participating.
- Reusing PostgreSQL codebase in a Distributed SQL Architecture (YugabyteDB)

Sunday
- Introducing FUKI, guest firmware in a UKI for confidential cloud deployments

- Hunting Virtio Specification Violations
- Someone has to check things, this talk explains how to do it professionally.
- Confidential VMs on public clouds and on-premise: a long way towards zero trust

- Migrating from VMware to Kubernetes
- This is important for one of my customers.
- Opendesk and beyond: building the Eurostack
- A tale of several distros joining forces for a common goal: reproducible builds
- Very interesting explanation on the state of reproducible builds for distros as Debian, Arch.
- The Road to EPEL 10
- Normally I just use the EPEL repo’s, but there is more to it!

- In this presentation (where I finally met someone I know) it was explained how some (mostly regulators) overthink/overload the SBOM spec.
