Systematic mistakes known as biases, along with impressions and thoughts, form within our conscious experience. This occurs naturally without us knowing they are even there or how they came about. The mental work that produces these impressions, intuitions, and decisions takes place silently within our mind. However, mistakes recur predictably under particular circumstances. Those circumstances are what we’ll focus on in this talk. Heuristics, (or mental shortcuts), are an intuitive judgements based on experiences and impressions from our past. We rely on those heuristics to approach problem solving, and especially within the context of decision making under uncertainty. Such as dealing with service disruptions or some other incident related to availability. Reliance on those heuristics often cause predictable errors in our reasoning, decision making, predictions and any common puzzle. We are often extremely confident even when we are blatantly wrong. When the constraints and pressures of “Time To Repair” influence our cognitive efforts, systematic errors are introduced into our judgements and choices. Our minds are easily susceptible to bias, and considerations of efficiency over thoroughness can amplify these errors even more. The goal of this talk is to improve the ability to identify and understand errors in judgement and choice. Through a deeper understanding of heuristics and of the biases to which they lead, improvements in judgement and decision-making under situations of uncertainty, such as a system-wide outage should be gained. -**Speaker:** Jason Hand \ No newline at end of file +**Speaker:** Jason Hand diff --git a/content/events/2016-seattle/proposals/Why_Weekends_Matter.md b/content/events/2016-seattle/proposals/Why_Weekends_Matter.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..a9d93e182aa --- /dev/null +++ b/content/events/2016-seattle/proposals/Why_Weekends_Matter.md @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ ++++ +date = "2016-04-13T12:18:48-07:00" +title = "Why Weekends Matter" +type = "ignite" + ++++ + +**Abstract:** + +Excluding weekends from your metrics reports may sound appealing when the goal is to reduce lead-time and/or cycle-time in your workflow.

-There are three ways to propose a session: -
    -
  1. A proposal for a talk/panel during the conference part : these are 30 minute slots that will have the full attention of all attendees, as everybody will be in that one room.
    2. -
  2. An Ignite talk that will be presented during the Ignite sessions. These are 5 minutes slots with slides changing every 15 seconds (20 slides total) which are also presented to all attendees in one room
    3. -
  3. Open Space session : even without a prepared presentation we welcome the discussion and interaction by having people propose a session on the fly during Open Space. Check the Open Space explanation for more information. -
- -### Even if you don't propose, please consider {{< event_link page="proposals" text="commenting on proposals submitted by others" >}} - -Our main criteria to make it to the top selection are: - -- _original content_: content not yet presented at other conferences, or a new angle to an existing problem -- _new presenters_: people who are new to the space and have insightful stuff to say; we want to hear everybody's voice -- _no vendor pitches_: as much as we value vendors and sponsors, we just don't think this is the right forum. You can demo at your table or during Open Space. - -How to submit a proposal: Send an email to [{{< email_proposals >}}] with the following information -
    -
  1. Proposal working title (can be changed later)
    2. -
  2. Type (presentation, panel discussion, moderated general discussion, debate, etc.,ignite)
    3. -
  3. Description or abstract
    4. -
-Rules: -
    -
  • Be specific... we aren't mind readers (a description of about 20 lines is about right)
    • -
  • Detail is good... but not as important as explaining why your proposal would be interesting
    • -
  • Propose your own talk; don't have someone else do it for you.
    • -
  • Nominations welcome... if you know someone who has content/experience relevant to the DevOps conversation, please point us in their direction!
    • -
  • Multiple proposals welcome... just follow the other rules

Call for proposals is now closed.
