Nobody wants to be in this situation. Here are some tips to make getting on stage a smooth process, even if unexpected events occur. Public speaking can be pretty stressful. All eyes will be on you and the last thing you wish to happen is a problem with your slides or microphone.
A flawless presentation requires proper preparation. We have gathered some best practices, drawn from practical experience, to help you prepare your presentation. With these tips and tricks you will confidently walk on-stage, knowing that slides and sound will not hamper your presentation. There are many tools out there that help you check if your website or webapp is accessible. Most of them do an automatic check based on some accessibility guidelines. Some also provide functionality to do checks yourself, for example, to check the color contrast.
The open source tool Accessibility Insights takes a different approach: on top of the usual automated checks there is a set of guided manual checks. This makes it a great tool to learn about accessibility testing and programming. At first, the title of this blog sounds like an excuse. You need to work on it every day. In part 1 and part 2 we talked about making all our colleagues aware of the risks, and how we help Developers write Secure code.
In part 1 we talked about making all our colleagues aware of the risks. During our summer internship in Tilburg, we worked on improving the current release notes website and the process of distributing release notes information to customers.
Our goal was to improve the website so that process would become less cumbersome. Furthermore, the quarterly release notes are available only for a fraction of all 13 TOPdesk languages. Partially this is because the notes have always been manually translated and that takes a lot of time. Therefore, we experimented with different services and translator models to see if automatic translations are viable. After the bootcamp, we spent the remaining 6 weeks of the internship on developing these functionalities.
During the free summer months, a lot of students take up a summer job. Foregoing the sun-filled beaches to make some extra money during their holidays. However, what if you could earn some money and gain valuable experience as a developer? And still go to the beach during the best internship outing!
Well, if this sounds good already, read on to learn about our experience as Software Engineering Interns at the TOPdesk branch in Tilburg. We are Team Spaghet, the team that has been working on improving the release notes website this summer. We are three students, all with a background in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. Our goals during this project were to deliver a great product, have a taste of the life of software developers and learn as much as we can along the way.
TL;DR: If you want to brush up on your programming skills, make some nice money and work in an environment with clever, friendly people: go do the Development Summer Internship!! Artificial intelligence is the buzzword of the decade, no question about it. While it used to be very difficult to develop an AI product from scratch unless you were an experienced researcher , now the entry barrier is so low that even students can implement something meaningful.
You really need some time to relax. Luckily, TOPdesk has specific game rooms for this purpose, so you ask some colleagues and head to the room.
Arriving there you notice that it is occupied, and the people inside mention that they just started their game. As Summer Interns , this is the situation we were trying to solve during this summer.
Only six weeks ago, we arrived fresh from our universities to get some working experience. Most of our team members only coded in their computer science courses. The WCAG 2. It adds 12 new A and AA and 2 AAA level success criteria focused on mobile accessibility, people with low vision, and people with cognitive and learning disabilities. Reading through all the documentation can be intimidating, whereas a checklist can be too brief.
Inspired by the session on WCAG 2. If you are in fact looking for a checklist, WebAIM has created a checklist of all 2. Jest is a popular unit testing framework for Javascript. In an earlier post, we have looked in detail on how you can use assertions in Jest unit tests. In unit tests, you want to focus on one functionality only and ignore the logic of functionality you are dependent on.
This is where mocks come into the picture. They make it easy to provide dummy objects for dependencies. Additionally, mocks keep track of all interactions with the mock. This way, you can check if your code calls the dependent code in the right way. While reading the ISTQB handbook not something I advise you to do you will sometimes come across stories of testers having difficulty talking to the people who do the coding and how to deal with that.
Having to tell the coder that what they created contains bugs or is missing a feature somehow is possibly problematic and how to tell them is supposed to be a skill testers should have or develop.
I think everyone can agree with that statement. Unfortunately, there is some extra work needed to make a program truly accessible. Even worse, this is often only thought of in the last bit of a project. This leads to accessibility often being cut out because of time and budget constraints. If accessibility would be considered from the start, it could be built in more easily.
But how can we make us as developers more aware so that we actively think about accessibility when building the software? We decided to host an accessibility challenge for our colleagues.
Read below how this turned out…. When it comes to frontend testing, most developers think of slow tests using selenium and a connected browser in an error prone setup. With more and more logic moving to the frontend, this picture is now slowly changing. Modern javascript testing frameworks make it possible to run tests fast and reliably. In an ignite talk, a speaker has 20 slides to present a topic to you.
The slides automatically advance every 15 seconds, so they have exactly 5 minutes to get their point across. Threat modeling is a process which far too few developers know about. It is a process that does what the name suggests: It helps you to model all threats to your application. Basically you make a list of threats, but in a structured way, such that you can assess the risks, and decide what to do about them. Imagine you are a developer and you have just pushed a change that breaks the build.
The Continuous Integration system, Jenkins in our case, sends you an email to notify you about this failure. Resident evil 4 serial is working.

The only way to protect our users is therefore to disable it altogether.
Knowing all of this, you can understand that we want to get rid of TLS 1. In the past few months we have been monitoring the usage of TLS 1.
Roughly around 0. Since our servers are configured to always use the most secure protocol and version a client supports, we know that those connections will break when we drop support for TLS 1.
However, soon we will announce to customers when we will do so. It is always a good idea to keep your OS and browser up-to-date. Finally, if you really want to be certain about this, you can disable support for TLS 1. Want to read more about security?

Skip to content — This post is part of a series of monthly blog posts about all kinds of Security topics for Developers — TLS stands for Transport Layer Security and it is a cryptographic protocol to secure communication over a network.
Setting up a secure connection Before secure end-to-end communication can start and data can be exchanged, the client and the server should reach agreement upon some things. Selecting the cipher suite Throughout the message exchange, a cipher suite is used. Authentication During the authentication phase the server proves its authenticity to the client.
Session Keys To create a session key, the client encrypts a random number with the public key of the server and sends that to the server. Here are a few of our reasons: TLS 1.
This allows a hacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack and decrypt traffic. Essentially the vulnerability is a client side problem, so upgrading to a modern browser fixes this.
One way that is often mentioned to solve this on the server side, is to only use RC4 ciphers, but those are very weak themselves and would open us up to vulnerabilities that are perhaps even worse.
