You can find me in conferences or meetups not only as a listener, but also as a speaker.
Most of my talks are in VilniusPHP, NoTrollsAllowed, less in OpenCamp, NFQ talks, KaunasPHP, ŠiauliaiPHP, Hack and Tell, VilniusScala, VilniusGolang, Minsk PHP Night meetups, or Infoshow, AgileTour, PyCon, Write the Docs, BuildStuff, or Fosdem conferences. Also was a lecturer at NFQ academy
Just a typo? Drawing the line between data and logic
When the project grows, so does the team, and data being maintained.
Have you wondered, why some typos had days, whole others, only minutes to release?
Let's go trough different data types, tools (E.g. Prismic, GraphQL), principles (E.g. Test data, AB testing) and different times to release the change.In complex project
Sonic Pi: Live coding to make music
I remember somebody had a job – "he play music with PC".
Until I tried it literally with Live Coding Music Sync.
It is a good way to combine geek inside you and form of an art.
Fargate
Fargate is an AWS compute engine for dockerized applications.
Presentation will consist of 3 parts: introduction to Fargate, when it is cheaper/better/worse, and short demo with simple PHP container on AWS Fargate.
Technologies changing how we think
When adopting Nicholas Carr's ideas to daily software development, principles like – productivity, functional vs object oriented programming, IDE, evolution of PHP syntax, A/B tests, lean programming – can be seen from completely different perspective.
"Intellectual technology" ideas can feel obvious, but only after you hear about them.
Let's change our brain structure together.

Amazon Web Service (AWS) infrastructure is used by millions of users, but it feels like it is dedicated to you specifically. Talk will illustrate how Identity and Access Management (IAM) works and what we can learn designing our own (outside-cloud) solutions.

While being a lecturerer in NFQ Akademy, I have experimented with different media to make students better understand the material.
It turned out GitHub+ScreenRecorder+Docker was the best combination for slow/fast students, updating material for the lecturer and using old examples long after the lecture.
I doubt there are big real projects where all changes are released only via CI/CD. For other changes we usually use term "migration". While some migration techniques seems hackish, repeating more and more of those (DNS, Network, Database, API) – pattern emerge.
Go have Goroutines, while PHP has Coroutines: while PHPuses only single processor (and thread) – it is still posible to speed up.
Talk illustrates examples with yield (generators), CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION and asinchroninio programming in general.
Dockerizing PHP Apps
Why and how we are using docker for development and production. Intro, what is docker, how to adapt PHP project to be used with docker, real examples of benefits and issues of using docker, deploying dockerized PHP apps in AWS.
Lightweight Architecture Decision Records
Lightning talk about documentation
Real-time metrics with netdata
Real-time first metrics version adapted for PHP community
Real-time fist metrics
We can put a lot of logs and have more complex/slow monitoring infrastructure than the application itself.
Talk illustrates differences of monitoring (real time, reliable, IDE integration).
Talk for BuildStuff 2017
Server-Sent Events
Lighning talk about Server-Sent-Events (as an alternative to WebSocket).
Visualize the WHY
DEMO used during AgileTourVilnius 2016.
To illustrate going from overview to details and vice versa
Limited resources and unlimited data needs – designing data flow as streams (or circle buffer) can help connect both worlds.
Inverting client-server architecture
Can we reverse Client -> Server architecture?
Augmented Reality Costume: From Zero to Hero
Creating T-Shirt+App to illustrate how future of Augmented reality would look like (using technologies of today).

Talk for new developers how development changes when website does not fit into the single file.
Sharing experience, about adapting website for blind people.
Using feedback from blind people, not only ready some theory.
Different media and why it is not that easy to implement real infinite zooming.
Can same information be perceived easier just changing the representation.
