Techforce1

Last Thursday we hosted our 6th and annual internal conference. A fantastic day which we hosted together with our other labels @FortWierickerschans. Items on the agenda: a.o. Talos & Cillium, JavaScript Module Systems & build tools, Machine Learning & AI, Pulumi etc. We also welcomed guest speakers like Ko Turk, Rick Ossendrijver from Picnic Technologies and returning guest Frank van Vliet from Certified Secure off-course.

#Techforce1 boardgame day: last Saturday we had our boardgame day in Arnhem. Spelkwartier was so kind to host our 2024 session! We had a real good time playing Dungeons and Dragons, and several other board games. We are already looking forward to the next one!

Workshop #Techforce1: This week we had our first Pulumi workshop. Our colleagues Marco van Kimmenaede and Jeroen Admiraal talked about the possibilities of this upcoming technology. Great session and interesting to see how it compares to things like, for example, #Terraform!

Saturday we had a #Techforce1 activity together with all the partners of our colleagues. We had a great night @ Scala | foodbar & theater in Amsterdam. With really good food, performances and lots of laughs because of @ThomGerrits, @DevinHillenius and @RubevanTienen. Good to see everybody again. We had a blast!

Techforce1 had an amazing time at KubeCon Paris, catching up with the latest innovations and insights in the world of Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies. We attended inspiring talks and left the conference with a lot of interesting perspectives. We also took the opportunity to explore Paris by day and night :). #KubeCon #Techforce1 #innovation #Kubernetes #cloudnative #Paris

Yesterday we had a Techforce1 meetup about GoLang, given by our colleques Ron Boortman and Zino Onomiwo. The workshop was a dive into the world of Go programming language. "What is GoLang? Why would you want to learn/use GoLang? What are the strengths and features of GoLang?" After this we had a little playtime during a fencing clinic given by Break Schermclinics. We are all ready for the Olympic Games at Paris now :).

Techforce1 werkt samen met Stichting DEAN aan de verbetering van digitaal onderwijs in Afrika. Binnen deze samenwerking bieden wij onder andere op afstand ondersteuning aan verschillende scholen in Afrika. Recentelijk ontvingen wij het verzoek of Techforce1 ook ter plaatse kon helpen bij het ElimuPi-Connect project. Deze kans werd met enthousiasme aangegrepen door onze collega Laurens Töning.
