  of a Rails-centered org\, from zero to planetary scale. \n\n Marcus Lagr
 é : "The Stress Equation: How Pressure\, Complexity\, and Security Affect
 s Stress Levels in Teams" \n\n Stress is a leading cause of sick leave and
  mental health issues for academics and knowledge workers. What sets stres
 s apart from other areas of occupational health\, is the focus on individu
 al susceptibility and personal coping strategies\, rather than proactively
  fixing the stressful work environment. In this talk\, Marcus Lagré will

 ressure\, complexity\, and a sense of security affect stress levels and wh
 y he created the stress equation. \n\n Karl Stolley : "Git-Config Essentia

 lor Git to your needs\, making version control a more seamless part of you
 r daily work. \n\n Dmitry Zinoviev : "What You Can Learn from Obscure Prog
 ramming Languages" \n\n Explore characteristics that early programming lan
 guages introduced that have shaped modern programming. Did you know that S
