You can find me at various conferences and technical communities — both as an attendee and as a speaker. Mostly at VilniusPHP, NoTrollsAllowed, also at BuildStuff, FOSDEM and elsewhere.
Sharing knowledge inside the company on best practices for mastering AI. There is a lot of hype about how to best leverage AI for coding. Personally, I see context engineering as the most pragmatic practice that actually worked.
Originally prepared for FOSDEM, but also shared in the NTA community. The feature flag ecosystem has matured into many competing platforms and SDKs—and now includes the OpenFeature specification. The trap: feature flags quickly become provider-specific custom logic instead of reu…
Kas iš tikrųjų lankosi jūsų svetainėje? Pranešimas susideda iš dviejų dalių: Pragmatiška įžanga (iš verslo perspektyvos): ateinančių užklausų susiejimas su kuriama verte ir patiriamais kaštais. Optimizacijos (giliau iš techninės pusės): realios el. komercijos istorijos naudojant…
I have always been fascinated by Personal Knowledge Management tools. But it was only the last NoTrollsAllowed talk that finally inspired me to actually use PKM tools daily — both at work and at home.
Sudėtingėjant projektams, didėja ir žmonių bei jų specializacijų kiekis. Kai kažkur padaroma teksto surinkimo klaida (angl. a typo), klientai nebūna patenkinti — bet keisčiausia, kad tokią klaidą ne visada pavyksta ištaisyti greitai.
A hippie festival through a geek's eyes. What can be learned from an anti‑technology festival, and how its ideas are close to the "NoTrollsAllowed" or Open Source communities. I usually never miss the "NoTrollsAllowed" festival — unless there is Covid, a honeymoon trip, or... fri…
I remember somebody had a job — "he plays music with PC". Until I tried it literally with Live Coding Music Sync. It is a good way to combine the geek inside you with a form of art.
As projects grow complex, 'typos' in content become hard to fix quickly. Examines tools (Prismic, GraphQL) and practices (unit testing, A/B testing) for different data types and release timing.
Over the past 4,000 years civilization advanced through invisible 'intellectual technologies' beyond visible ones. Applies Nicholas Carr's framework to productivity, programming paradigms, and IDE evolution.
Sharing experience from NFQ Academy lecturing, combining GitHub, screen recording, and Docker to accommodate diverse learning speeds and address rapid market changes.
Real projects involve manual processes beyond CI/CD. DNS, Network, Database, and API migrations are complex — examining whether they can encourage cleaner architecture.
Lightning talk: approaches to testing YAML configuration files.
Go has Goroutines, while PHP has Coroutines: while PHP uses only a single processor thread, it is still possible to speed up. Covers yield generators, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, and asynchronous programming.
What can be learned by applying Service Worker and designing websites to work without internet connectivity.
Docker usage in development and production environments: Docker basics, PHP application integration, practical advantages and disadvantages, and AWS deployment.
Progressive Web Apps support is growing in browsers. Covers PWA integration in Symfony 4 projects: common errors, infrastructure, and new possibilities.
Lightning talk on lightweight Architecture Decision Records as a documentation approach.
Decision-making based on real-time metrics rather than intuition: contrasting monitoring approaches with IDE integration.
Practical JSON serialization patterns and common mistakes in Go applications.
Simulating browsers using PHP, Headless Chrome, and Docker for UI testing — beyond just Selenium+PhantomJS.

Introduction to Docker, demo on a Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS), and problems encountered when using Docker in that environment.
Using zoom-based navigation for transitions between detail and overview perspectives in project management.
Multi-model Databases: problems, comparison with CQRS, definition, and demo.
Limited resources and unlimited data needs – designing data flow as streams (or a circular buffer) can help connect both worlds.
Questioning the standard client → server architecture and exploring what happens when it is inverted.
What, how, and why Server-Sent Events were used as a WebSocket alternative for real-time data.
AR concepts, tools, common solutions, and mistakes in augmented reality development.

Practical tips for planning and implementing integration (acceptance) tests.
Creating a T-Shirt+App to illustrate how the future of Augmented Reality would look like using technologies of today.
Oriented toward PHP beginners. Moving beyond single-file code to managing growing codebases, with three practical learning recommendations.
Graph database overview using OrientDB as a practical example.
Sharing experience, how I learned Scala to use it for UI heavy Desktop application.
Sharing experience, about adapting website for blind people. Using feedback from blind people, not only ready some theory.
How the same information presented differently — as a diagram, icon, or text — can simplify problem-solving.
Denormalization and other relational database performance optimization techniques.
Although PHP is not a functional-paradigm language, many functional programming ideas integrate well into PHP.
Early public talk introducing functional and object-oriented programming concepts.
One of the first public talks (in 2010) Blender – from animation to 3D presentation.
