If you can't meet your needs in your city, just leave. Simple as that.Without a doubt, the most exciting news in the BMW 3 Series Facelift press pack is the launch in 2016 of the BMW 330e, the plug-in hybrid sedan. Along with the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the 330e hybrid paves the road for future eDrive-powered model arriving before 2020.
Today, we have the first official photos of the 330e, along with a launch film showing the new hybrid in action. The BMW 330e will be powered by a plug-in hybrid drive system with a combined output of around 250 hp and 310 lb-ft (preliminary), giving the BMW 330e a 0–60 mph acceleration time of approximately 6.1 (preliminary) and a top speed of 140 mph (preliminary).
The new BMW 330e is also capable of traveling up to 22 miles in all-electric mode and therefore with zero local emissions. The new 3 series plug-in hybrid will take advantage of the ‘situational awareness’ that the X5 eDrive has with the addition of new features including Real Time Traffic Information.
Take a look below at the first images and the short film.Westward lay the desert, an impenetrable black void; in front, the gloomy mountain wall lifted jagged peaks close to the stars; to the right rose the ridge, the rocks and stunted cedars of its summit standing in weird relief. A pale light in the east turned to a glow, then to gold, and the round disc of the moon silhouetted the black bowlders on the horizon. It cleared the dotted line and rose, an oval orange-hued strange moon, not mellow nor silvery nor gloriously brilliant as Hare had known it in the past, but a vast dead-gold melancholy orb, rising sadly over the desert. To Hare it was the crowning reminder of lifelessness; it fitted this world of dull gleaming stones.
Then the journey began, and the night fell black. A cool wind blew from the west, the white stars blinked, the weird moon rose with its ghastly glow. Huge bowlders rose before him in grotesque shapes, tombs and pillars and statues of Nature's dead, carved by wind and sand. But some had life in Hare's disordered fancy. They loomed and towered over him, and stalked abroad and peered at him with deep-set eyes.

</html>When i was younger i worked at a paintball place for about a year on weekends, not a very fancy place but a great family feel. When it shut down the boss hooked me up as a gun-tech at a more "premium " place that he knew the owners of... This is how the story begins. First day things are going great, the guns are cleaner, newer and easier to work with but they have very sensitive triggers, there was a birthday party for a group of kids (10-12 years old maybe) and the birthday boy gets one of these new fancy sensitive guns. Before their first match starts he picks up his gun, squeezes the handle and trigger, and puts a paintball under my mask and right on the adams apple, i was fired because me coughing/gagging scared the kids and the parents complained

Tl/dr i got fired because a kid shot me in the neckSometimes, teams are so focused on the customer that they are unable to perform. In this talk, I will discuss a real-life example of a problem encountered with a few teams who had just this issue.
In our eagerness to satisfy the Agile mindset of Customer collaboration and satisfying the customer, we can often fall into a trap that none of us expects. In this case, it led to the worst possible outcome – an inability to deliver.
How can this happen? Surely being closer to the customer is the best possible position? As it turns out, it can cripple our productivity and set the team into a spiral that is difficult to come out of. Nothing was getting done and the team carried all the blame when in fact, the blame lay equally between the team and the customer.
It took someone from outside of the loop to see the problem and act.
As the Principal Consultant for Agile for a government department, I found exactly this situation. I was at a loss as to how to resolve this situation. I tried a number of tactics to try to resolve the situation and both sides were willing to do whatever it took.
Dragging the teams away from the customer sounds very un-agile, but in this case, it was the only option. I’ll show you what we did and how we did it.
The worst of those teams are now considered one of the most customer-centric teams in the organisation, getting praise from some unexpected areas.
There are so many opportunities for us to develop ourselves, improve the way we ensure Quality and how we deliver (earlier) value to our Customers.
In this talk I will look at what these opportunities are and how we can achieve higher quality, deliver quicker and improve our skillsets.
But it’s not just about ourselves, we can also influence change within our organisations and improve the relationships we have with our Clients and Suppliers.
We will discuss the challenges and successes you have observed, leveraging Agile & DevOps practices, so we can improve our effectiveness.
Scrum Masters play a key role in the workplace transformation. Agile being a change management in the way how an organizations thinks Scrum Masters play the role of a change agent.  But that is something every scrum master should carefully think about before becoming a one.
DevOps can be a backbone of your company’s success when it’s done properly. What does it take to be successful with DevOps?
How can you make most your investment?
I will be sharing the secret sauce of DevOps transformation, and how to combine both culture, processes and tools for a win-win outcome.
Presentation on the micro service design, challenges and architecture used to power the Telstra TV3 and it’s voice control. Overview of the design and architecture, development strategy and DevOps strategy that the team used to design, develop and deploy the backend systems used to support Telstra TV. Show how Docker, Kubernetes and Amazon AWS can be used to quickly deploy new services. Present the need for DevOps processes when a micro service architecture is used. Present a working architecture that the team used to enable voice control on Telstra TV3.
The Software development process has undergone a paradigm shift in the last few years mostly owing to a number of technology innovations, rising user expectations and delivery efficiency that was unprecedented in the last decade. In a fast paced world, where the feedback loop is very short and quick, there is no option other than transforming the entire delivery mechanism. Incremental change has become the de-facto standard instead of a big bang transformation. And the way you can embrace that change and deliver efficiently – is by establishing a mechanism that fosters seamless flow of ‘quality’ events.
This has been made possible by the ‘Continuous Delivery’. The principle behind continuous delivery remains as the chain of events managed through an uninterrupted and automated process. A true ‘Continuous Delivery’ is enabled by ‘Continuous Integration’, ‘Continuous Testing’ and ‘Continuous Deployment’ – all in an automated and meaningful way. This talk aims to address the ‘continuous Testing out of these triangle. It expands on the ingredients and the success criteria for achieving true Continuous Testing, ably supported by automation.
In a rush to deliver, teams often rely on a narrow definition of ‘testing’, represented by a high-maintenance automated suite followed by significant manual acceptance testing. Even if there is an attempt to include a set of regression set as part of the build process, it is often limited to functional acceptance tests, ignoring the many other forms of testing that should be part of your continuous testing spectrum. The definition and the scope for continuous testing is much broader than these popular assumptions. A true continuous testing starts with ‘quality’ at the center and expands the different aspects of testing that helps to bring the best in the product. As we start to embrace more of continuous delivery, continuous testing will be even more critical in that journey as it will ensure – ‘quality’ will not be a discrete set of events, rather a continuous process. ‘Quality’ cannot be built into the product, it will have to be flowed in, right from the start.
