+
+Continuous learning is increasingly regarded as a key differentiator of high performing software teams, but what does that actually mean in practice and how can we optimise socio-technical systems for learning?
+
+In this talk I'll dig into the characteristics of a learning system and share examples of social and technical practices that can support continuous learning in software teams.
+
+We'll also consider the role we play as individual contributors to collective learning and the steps we can take independently to become better learning citizens.
+
+This talk will inspire you to reflect on your personal and collective learning capabilities and experiment with different ways of supporting continuous learning in your team and across your organisation.

+Type = "talk"
+Speakers = ["radu-matei"]
++++
+At Kubecon Paris recently, WebAssembly was one of the most talked about technologies and rightfully so. With the release of WASI Preview 2, it seems like Wasm is the poised to be next gamechanger in the cloud computing space. One of the big announcements at Kubecon was the new CNCF sandbox project SpinKube which enables hyper efficient serverless on K8s, powered by Wasm.
+
+SpinKube is an OS project that streamlines developing, deploying and operating Wasm workloads in K8s - resulting in delivering smaller, more portable applications and compute performance benefits. This talk is a technical overview of SpinKube and how it works under the hood. There are descriptions of the containerd shim that enables the Wasm runtime, how Runtime Class Manager deploys pre-configured images that run Wasm workloads, the Spin Operator which is used to schedule and manage Spin Wasm apps and how it all comes together. This talk also gives an introduction to how WebAssembly works - with a live demo attached
