World Information Architecture Day 2025 - UX at a CrossroadsJoshua Randall

User Experience stands at a crossroads: will we live up to our potential to design a better world? or will we be co-opted by ��product management�� or another business buzzword? Looking backwards, this talk will show how UX has repeatedly failed to create a better world, drawing on industry data from Nielsen Norman Group, Baymard, MeasuringU, WebAIM, and others. Looking forwards, this talk will argue that UX must resist hype, say no more often and collaborate less often (you read that right), and become a true profession �� in order to be able to design a better world.

DevNexus - Building 10x Development Organizations.pdfJustin Reock

Developer Experience is Dead! Long Live Developer Experience! In this keynote-style session, we��ll take a detailed, granular look at the barriers to productivity developers face today and modern approaches for removing them. 10x developers may be a myth, but 10x organizations are very real, as proven by the influential study performed in the 1980s, ��The Coding War Games.�� Right now, here in early 2025, we seem to be experiencing YAPP (Yet Another Productivity Philosophy), and that philosophy is converging on developer experience. It seems that with every new method, we invent to deliver products, whether physical or virtual, we reinvent productivity philosophies to go alongside them. But which of these approaches works? DORA? SPACE? DevEx? What should we invest in and create urgency behind today so we don��t have the same discussion again in a decade?
