Ten Thousand Builds a Day: Making CI Boring on Purpose
Priya Raman · Developer Experience
Latticework runs ten thousand builds a day and nobody watches them. Getting there took three years, one deleted queueing system, and a rule we now apply to everything: if a failure needs a human to interpret it, it is not finished.

Shipping a Compiler to the Browser
Hana Kobayashi · Developer Experience
Compiling our compiler to WebAssembly turned a twelve-second round trip into an editor that answers as you type. The talk covers what had to change in the compiler, what WebAssembly still makes hard, and how we kept one implementation rather than acquiring a second one.
