3rd DevClub.lv

It’s time for 3rd DevClub.lv to get input from each other and our speakers:

• Gunta Strode from DPA will talk about "Requirement: Code Quality"
  (Language - Latvian)
  Nowadays it’s very popular to talk about code quality in software projects. It seems that every programmer can recognize bad code, but does they know how to create good one? This presentation will focus on good code quality, defining it, describing how to achieve, maintain and measure it and what happens if one fails to do that.

• Valdis Iļjučonoks from Geta will talk about "Functional programming - F#"
  (Language - English)
  Functional programming gone mainstream by making this Microsoft Research language as first-class citizenship in Visual Studio. Developers can use functional approach to resolve specific problem domain issues. F# can also be used in mainstream development like Windows Phone applications. What is functional programming, why should I care about one and where can I make use of that? Those questions will be answered by this session.

• Arvīds Godjuks from VoipClub will talk about "PHP - life after fork()"
  (Language - English or Russian)
  PHP and deamon - usually these two together provoke only one reaction from the audience - the speaker is trolling. I will make an effort to convince the audience that this is not the case anymore as of PHP 5.3. This will be a success story of using a daemons written in plain PHP to process some few million USD worth of transactions per month in production mode for 2 years.
