  2. Prof Danny Altmann: the burden of long COVID | RNZ

    World leading immunologist Professor Danny Altmann has declared the future burden of long COVID to be "so large as to be unfathomable". He has published a scientific review of long COVID in Nature, asserting if 10% of acute infections lead to persistent symptoms, up to 400 million people could be in need of support for long COVID worldwide. While the Australian government has allocated $50m for long COVID research, in New Zealand there has been zero investment for bio-medical long COVID research to understand and treat the condition. Professor in the Faculty of Medicine, Department of Immunology and Inflammation at Imperial College London, Professor Altmann has been studying T cells for four decades, and is interested in why people suffer debilitating consequences so long after COVID infection.

  3. HTMx: Building modern web applications without JS (with Carson Gross)

    Intro 00:00 Talk 06:35 Q&A 44:51

    Useful links around HTMx: - Book "Hypermedia Systems" https://hypermedia.systems/ - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-GSGH2RxJs @Fireship - Essays: https://htmx.org/essays

    In the last decade, the rise of Single Page Applications (SPA) allowed sophisticated web applications to be built with libraries such as React, Angular etc. — putting a big JS stack in front of the client. Let us take a look into HTMx and why its approach is fundamentally different from current wave of evolving frontend tools: Based on Hypermedia as an architectural concept, HTMx allows developers to leverage HTML, HTTP and REST as the primary tools for building dynamic user interfaces and enables faster development without reliance on JavaScript frameworks and dependencies. Also, it embraces progressive enhancement and graceful degradation principles.

    We are happy to have the creator of HTMx with us in this session to introduce Hypermedia and HTMx, so you can get first-hand overview of it and hopefully you are hooked to give it a try afterwards!
