• hij1nx/weld - GitHub
  Looks intriguing. From the Readme:

  Weld turns data into markup. There's NO sugar required. It works in the browser and in node.js! It's less than 1K compressed. It was co-developed with the developer of JSDOM.

• Software Engineering Doesn't work - Glenn Vanderburg
  "What then, does real software engineering look like? How can we consistently deliver high-quality systems to our customers and employers in a timely fashion and for a reasonable cost? In this talk, we'll discuss where software engineering went wrong, and build the case that disciplined Agile methods, far from being "anti-engineering" (as they are often described), actually represent the best of engineering principles applied to the task of software development."
