Digital Tech Lunch for Studenter med FINN.no og TietoEvry, 10 februar 2021 - Go: The language of the cloud
Websites. Databases. Cloud microservices. Command line tools. All of the above are being created using the Go programming language. This open source language originally released by Google has taken the open source world by storm over the past ten years. From the tiniest throw away script to the largest and most popular container orchestrator on the market, Kubernetes, Go satisfies the needs of almost any development need. By prioritizing simplicity, fast compilation and a feature rich standard library, projects written in Go are able to deliver value over time with low maintainance costs and a low level of dependance on imported libraries. It's stable, slow to change and easy to get started with. Come and find out why Go made Stack Overflow's top 5 most loved programming languages (spoiler: Java and Javascript didn't make the cut), and how Go can help you in your next project.

Digital UX Lunsj 5 mai 2021 - Brukerreisen har blitt voksen
Vi har samlet noen kloke hoder for å utforske hvordan noen av de beste jobber med brukerreiser i dag. Dagne Vaa (NAV), Therese Aaland (Halogen), Ragnhild Mjønner (FINN.no), Marit Helgesen (Vipps). Burde vi ha et malverk? Kan det brukes til organisasjonsendring? Hvordan ha oversikt over alle brukerreisene?
Vi starter med korte innlegg fra alle disse flotte folka, før vi har satt av tid til en lavterskel preik og litt nerding og graving i temaet.
