Distributed build at scale
Dropbox, like any other large company, has a lot of code to build, test and release as part of its ongoing business. In this presentation, you will learn about Bazel - an open-source general-purpose build system that underpins the majority of building & testing infrastructure Dropbox uses on its day-to-day operations. You'll get to see how Bazel is used across our CI stack and Developer Infrastructure, how it allows for blazing-fast building and what are our next steps in this journey of supporting engineers at Dropbox around the world.

FFmpeg + Python
Multimedia processing can be very complex, especially if you want to handle most of the available codecs and formats. Fortunately, we have FFMpeg - a "complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video". It is a great tool, but its CLI is quite complex and hard to master unless you use it on a daily basis. During this talk, you will learn what FFmpeg is and how to use it in Python without hurting yourself.
