 Come on on everyone This is Tim Bird and I'm coming to you from my basement Due to COVID-19 If I keep this mask on the entire time, it's gonna be kind of ridiculous, but I thought I'd start with some fun hopefully you're You're enjoying the conference and had a good time. Okay, that's enough of this Hopefully that just sets the stage for the That sets the stage for Gotta turn that off. I'm hearing the sound and the other speaker That sets the stage for the amount of fun. We're gonna have today if you have not been to a Closing game session of embedded Linux conference, it's time for us to just unwind a little bit and relax and have some fun That's why I have my dumb bird mask I didn't think I could wear that at a regular event because walking up to the stage. I wouldn't have enough vision I'd probably trip and fall although that might be fun For everybody else. It's a bad way to start off the session So let me talk about what we're gonna do today the conference is over. I hope you had a good time and But in this session we're gonna do something a little different I have some closing games prepared for you But before we get started with that I need you to do a little bit of pre-fetching in order to play the games Yeah, you're gonna need to find your event confirmation number So that's the number you've been using all week to log in to ELC that It's actually a string of letters and numbers But that should be in your registration confirmation email I'm gonna keep talking for a minute while you go ahead and look for that Just make sure you have that ready because you're gonna use it to join the game So I want to get started with just a big. Thank you to everyone who makes this event possible Obviously it takes a lot of work to put on an event like this even you would think that a virtual event would be less work But that's not the case at all. I know they It takes it takes a whole lot of effort on a lot of people's parts. So I want to say a big Thank you to the sponsors in particular. I want to take thank IBM as a diamond sponsor And I want to thank our platinum sponsors Todd native computing foundation Google Red Hat Susei and then our gold sponsors AWS and VMware and We also have silver sponsors. I'm not going to read all of these but thank you to them as well as well as some bronze sponsors And so those are the organizations that have supported this event and made it possible for us to get together Well, virtually, but there's also other people behind the scenes the program committee. I want to say a special thanks to them some great individuals who helped us figure out the content for this event and Also, I want to thank the speakers We the this event really the content of the event really comes a lot from the speakers and the great technical content that they bring every year and I want to thank you as attendees for for participating I know the slack channel has been very active and we've had lots of good comments lots of good Q&A in the sessions and Just by your participation You've helped make the event better and then finally we have to give a shout out to the Linux Foundation event staff They always do just a great professional job. I've been super impressed This is not an easy thing to switch over from You know a venue-based event to a virtual event. We just really appreciate the fact All the hard work they've done Making all of this stuff possible so Now with those thank yous out of the way We have prepared a closing game There is a url closing game net That I want you to go to There's a very simple page and you can click on the red green game and you should be presented with a form and You will need to register and create an account on that site very quickly So use your event confirmation number that I asked you to look up previously Decide on an account name. This is a user alias. It doesn't matter what it is. It's just a short Name for yourself whatever you're most comfortable with it will it is possible that that user alias will be displayed So try to pick something Well, how can I put it in offensive? The other things that I would like on there just in case you win We need your real name and your email address and we could match those up after the event but We want to make sure that we've got redundancy here in case you win a prize We really want to make sure that you that you were able to receive it So you can see you can start registering. I'm see people registering right now Once you register you'll be putting into kind of on a waiting page and just kind of hold there for a while So some housekeeping Before we get started as people are registering So the present there's a presentation page already made available at ELC 2020 presentations So some slides are already there Bill trainer has been uploading them as they appear on Schedged comm so please submit your your talk or your slides to Schedged comm or if you want to you can load them yourself. You can create an elinx wiki account It's just like wikipedia On if you go to sketch comm you there's a button called manage session So make sure your slides are available. We don't want to hunt you down And we prefer to get the PDFs up there all of the sessions were recorded and they'll actually be available to you for a whole year on this conference system And they'll also be made they be made available to the public starting tomorrow People will need to register, but it will be free and then the the videos will also eventually be put on YouTube So I think that's a great system. You can start recommending videos to your friends and Start referencing those and as soon as they get on YouTube, we'll put the links on the the presentations page So now some interesting news about embedded Linux conference Europe Unfortunately, we have made the decision that this year will be a virtual event It was planned for October in Dublin, Ireland We were kind of watching the first couple weeks of summer here to see what happened with COVID-19, but it looks like There's still be a lot of travel restrictions in place and so We're planning on doing at the same dates, but a virtual event just like this one the CFP for that closes July 26 I know if you're a speaker, you're probably You're probably just you know right at the period where you're Breathing a sigh of relief having finished your talk but you know give it a couple of weeks and then send us a send us a Proposal for a paper or a talk or a boff or or a panel or something like that. We'd love to have you Participate in our embedded Linux conference Europe this year. So our plans after that are embedded Linux conference 2021 We're shooting for August 4th through 6th. That should be 2021 in Vancouver, Canada So next summer hopefully all of this COVID stuff is behind us But you know, we'll see and then embedded Linux conference Europe 2021. This is the first time we've ever gone Like a year and a half out with announcements. We think it'll be October don't have the dates pinned down for sure But we're gonna try again for Dublin, Ireland. So we're gonna do take two on that We're looking to add virtual elements to future events To enhance them with lessons from this experience. So we've learned a lot about how to have virtual events and we're very excited actually with the extended reach that it provides and so we're looking at ways that we can take some of the things that we're doing and with this event and even when we go to live events to use that experience to Enhance the conference Okay, so now let's get down to it. We're gonna start playing some games. I Like to tell people I like games where everyone has a chance to win We have some games that are skill-based loosely loosely stated Anyway, and then we have some that are just pure luck The basic outline is when we do this in person. We have a whole room full of attendees. They stand up and we kind of whittle them down People who who answer correctly get to continue standing and then and then the winners are selected to come up and get a prize So we're gonna do a similar type of thing, but it's all online this time. So Like I said, normally we play this in person, but the big overview here's register online. I see we've got over 200 registrations already We're gonna answer some questions. This is the red green game, which means normally we hold up pieces of paper To show our answers, but now you'll just be clicking on the screen not quite as exciting. Hopefully you'll win a prize and That would be great. The interesting thing is I think the conference is only $50. I think the lowest value prize We have is $50. So there's a very good chat. Well, there's If you win you will end up offsetting the complete cost of your attendance at this conference So that's actually a pretty good deal Let's see so the probability of success if you have come to ELC before you know that we Having hiccups and problems with the closing game is kind of a tradition This year will be no exception. I anticipate We use I Had a kind of a homebrew handwritten web script. I tried some technologies that I've never tried before A WSGI engine X and some auto refresh polling by the way Mahan Webster is providing the web server for this There's an old adage in the trade show business when doing a demo and you should never try something You've never tried before well it embedded Linux conference during the closing game. We always try something We've never tried before I didn't have time to rigorously test it the chances that it's gonna work under load are Kind of low, but let's see what happens. I've got some Monitors on another computer here. I'm kind of watching what's going on The server hasn't fallen over yet and So Let's see. So the the thing is what's at stake and I want to I want to comment here We have some LWN net certificates LWN net always give a shout out to them. They have great material And you should really be a reader of them and a subscriber to help support them financially We have a bunch of gift gift cards donated by the Linux Foundation, and we have some late breaking Also donations for prizes from companies I'll mention those here We have a $250 Amazon gift card that's been donated by Red Hat. Thank you Red Hat for that Google has Produced an open-source swag bag so a bag containing a bunch of open-source stuff That's an actual physical gift that we're gonna we're gonna ship to someone And then we have a $50 Amazon gift card donated by Amazon web services So thank you to Red Hat Google and Amazon and Linux Foundation for providing some some prizes So our very first game is going to be a game of trivia it's embedded Linux history technical and nerd trivia and There's always a qualifier on this that I think is important for people to realize and an important disclaimer This game is not fair. It's I Apologize in advance. Some people are going to be upset With the answers, but the decisions of the judges is final This year because we're doing it online If for some reason you can't register There are a limited number of guest accounts that you can use I don't we we're not going to be able to chip prizes to any of the guest counts But if you want to play along and you haven't been able to register you can use a guest account called Instead of the confirmation number you use guest G-u-e-s-t XYZ where XYZ is a number from one 100 to 99 so a three-digit number not starting with a zero and just all one word use that as your confirmation number You just have to guess and hope that you don't collide with someone else I put a thousand of them in I but I didn't put a collision stuff So Philip Ballester is asking for the URL again. So let me let me Recite the URL. It's closing game all one word net and That's all you need. It's an HTTPS slash slash closing game net Slut and then you'll there's a link there that will take you to slash RG But you just need to get to the server and you should be pretty easy to get there so I'll give people like one or two more seconds to To register. Oops. I went to the slide the first question. Wow. Hopefully people didn't see that But that's actually my throwaway question. So we'll So, okay, so let's get started. This should be this should be fun And I have to multitask here because I'm running the game on another computer But Let's start the trivia game so Let's see right here Okay, what is the latest release released Linux kernel? Is it green five dot seven dot six or red five dot eight RC five And I give people just a couple of minutes to answer that well not a couple of minutes So I don't want people. Oh, by the way, don't be looking stuff up on Google I know you're all at home. You could have another screen up and you could be researching this stuff But it's it's no fun if you cheat so Or your cheat is a harsh word. It's don't artificially enhance your opportunity to win So I think we're doing pretty good on on answers I've got over 200 people have answered Oh, by the way, and if you do come in late the the game resets in the middle So just because you get eliminated don't don't give up. Okay, so the answer to this question is Let's see here The latest kernel release on kernel.org is five dot seven dot six so The release candidates don't count as release kernels So that was a little bit of a tricky question. It says it right in their names Besides the current release candidate is not RC five. It's it's RC three. So So, you know, that couldn't be the right answer. So guess what I'm gonna give all everyone I'm gonna give you that question for free if it says on your screen that you're eliminated. Don't worry about it I'm about to restore you And see what happens here. Hopefully this will restore people Okay, so we gave you that question for free and as your screen resets, hopefully you'll get You'll you'll get next to still in Wait, what happens still in count is only one. Oh, of course Of course Well, of course, of course that didn't work. I Wrote that this afternoon. I don't know what the problem is I'm gonna manually take care of that. Just give me a second Hold on here Okay Now refresh your screens if by the way, if you if you fall out, let me see here It's a server falling over No, oh, what happened? Okay? Okay, let me try this again one last try Sorry people we're gonna have to play through that question that I'm not sure what happened to the still in count Well, okay, people are back in now, but we're back to question one So ignore this question. What a disaster. This is the same every time. Okay? Okay, now everyone knows the answer this time Let's see Okay, so everyone answered the correct one this time which is five dot seven dot six I'm waiting for answers to roll in Not sure what happened there on the still in Dang, okay got a lot of people answered but not everyone but I get I do got a I've got I've got people slacking me some stuff appreciated. Thank you Okay, so Let's go to the next question. Let's just see. Okay Here we go Okay 1968 Edsger Dykstra have the letter published in communications of the ACM With the title go-to statement considered harmful in 2020 how many go-to statements are there in the Linux kernel source code? Is it less than 180,000 or more than 180,000? So answer this question and let's see Not sure what happened. We're still in backup system Okay, I can't let these questions run too long because people could be running a little get search commands or something Although it should take you longer than 50 seconds to figure this this one out Okay, I'm gonna call this one And the answer is It's less than 180,000. So the answer was green There are 168,000 So and you can find that out with a very simple command there fine command Okay, so we've got a hundred eleven people still in so let's keep going Okay, so the papers and notes from Eskier Dykstra's career are housed in Austin, Texas. Is that true or false? By the way, if you're if you're eliminated you can still answer the question In fact, you should if you want to keep current with the game You just won't be eligible for a prize this round, but don't give up The prizes will be you will be allowed to to do a prize in a future round Okay, so I'm gonna give it maybe 10 more seconds Okay, and the answer is true So Dykstra's last job was in the computer science department Oh, let me make sure this goes there you go Dykstra's last job was in the computer science department at the University of Texas at Austin And you can find his archive there Dykstra took a lot of really careful notes During his career and he's he was a really brilliant man had a lot of great insights Okay, so next question Here The warning against lines that are too long for the Linux source contributions was recently changed that part I can guarantee you is true. It's changed from its old value to 120 columns. Is that true or false? Okay, you can't see the numbers Climbing it, but I can I should have put that in the screen, but I was really worried about load on the server Here we go So I'm gonna have to let this go now And the answer to that one is False it was it was only modified to 100 characters not 120 Notice that the 80 character max is still pervert preferred And I did a little bit of math on this extrapolating from the time of this change I think we I think we'll see the limit go up to 120 On march 9th 2049 about every 30 or so years will increase by 20 characters so Let's look at the next question In the 4.x series a little eternal was it possible to configure an arm kernel smaller than 700 000 bytes? That's text bss and or text data bss. That's obviously the static size of the kernel So just how just how good do you think the linux tiny project has been over the years? and I think I'm going to go ahead and show the answer And the answer is yes Michael optenacker had a session ELC 2017 where he showed a kernel with a footprint under about 600 000 600 000 bytes We still got about 19 people still in the in the round So we're going to keep going And this is a question that's much more recent. This is based on linux's keynote just this week His keynote chat linux said in his keynote session that much work in operating systems is based on principles from the 1960s And he mentioned one thing in particular As one technology that might require new ideas in the kernel. Was it green quantum computing? or red artificial intelligence okay For this one you have to have you have to have been paying pretty close attention and you have to have a good memory Let's go ahead and show the answer. The answer was artificial intelligence Okay, so Get this we're down to seven people. Should I do one more quit? I usually ask the audience and I get feedback. There's no way to do that on this one um So let me Should I go ahead and declare some winners Or should I do one more question? I know the people who are still in are going come on declare winners I'm going to do one more question Oh, this is a good question too. Let me see here Is estimated that how many linux-based computers are currently in outer space counting interplanetary probes? Okay counting interplanetary probes. So is that less than 65 or more than 65? Okay, I'm going to be really upset if the seven that we're still going to get this wrong Because I don't have good processes in case everyone gets eliminated. Okay, so the answer to this one is pretty interesting It's uh more than 65. There's currently 32 000 over 32 000 uh Computers in outer space running linux each space x launch of starling satellites adds about 4 000 It is estimated that in a few years there will be over two million linux computers in low earth orbit and uh, so I say If you combine this with uh, linux's last thing where we add some ai to the kernel Uh, I think we should call the system sky net two million ai nodes up in the sky. What could go wrong? Okay Oh, so we have officially three people Still in so we're going to declare the winners. So Uh, here's here's the winners Uh, is renato niren and ls l smith You guys have officially won a prize and we will contact you after the event to Tell you how to obtain your prize and which which prize you've won Or what the process is for for that So the good news for everybody is that means that everybody is back in the game if you are out you're back in so People should be Still in Okay, I'm gonna take just a quick look The questions oops what happened. Okay Okay, so the next question It will be hard to use a nexus for android phone in the year 2040 is that true or false? Hey, the answers are coming in It's not quite as fun as when you can't see the people holding cards right next to you, of course If you can't see the people holding cards right next to you can't uh, this is this one's a pretty easy one. Uh because uh Well the issue one it will be an old phone at that point But uh android in that era was subject to the year 2038 bug When I say that era that was not that long ago, but uh Luckily phones that are being built now should be a lot more resilient Arden bergman and a lot of other people have worked really hard to to fix your 2038 problems But uh back in the day you can actually So I know that the Oh, no audio Have we have we lost audio? Oh, it's back. Okay Sorry, I uh, I'm watching a lot of stuff right now. Okay. It looks like we have a fair number of people have answered this question So I'm going to show the answer Get your answer in quick The answer is less than two. Uh, this is a trick question The linux foundation does not to my knowledge have a uh kernel documentation team uh, so That you can see a picture of the team right there. Uh, sorry. That's a joke. It's kind of a bad joke I actually uh, the linux foundation has had people working on kernel documentation in the past I'd like to see and do some more stuff there. Uh, but uh, oh wow a lot of people A lot of people got eliminated on that one. Um, okay, so next question In april an educational computer kit Based on the raspberry pi 4 was released that was built and marketed by an 11 year old child Is that true or false? Okay, I'm gonna go ahead once we get over 200 answers. I uh, I feel like I'm gonna go the answer Although if you haven't submitted it get it in quick Okay, here we go The answer is false Okay, so there was a box. It's called the sanya box embedded computer kit did go on cell risk recently Based on a Kickstarter campaign. It was designed and being is being sold by a 13 year old not an 11 year old Uh, she's a young woman from india named sanya jane Uh, and includes a custom shield and some stuff. It's like I saw this. It's just amazing. I think it's remarkable Uh, I think she's to be commended. Uh, I I feel like uh, when when I was in my youth I was not putting together stem kits for uh, you know educational purposes. Uh, you know, I feel like my youth was kind of mis-spent um So, uh, let's go one more question Ah, remember the alamo Unfortunately, we'll be missing out on the opportunity to visit one of the most historic sites of austin texas the alamo In what year was the famous battle of alamo fought in austin? Was it 1836 1841? Or neither of those years Notice the austin theme. So I start thinking of these questions way back and even before the covet hit so We were going to be in austin and we're going to miss seeing seeing the alamo Okay, so i'm going to go ahead and show the answer The answer is fall or is uh, neither of those years because uh, there was a the battle of alamo was fought in 1836 But the alamo mission is not located in austin texas. It's located in san antonio texas So how many how many people did I wipe out with that one? Oh, gosh? Uh, sorry, that was a trick question if you google that you probably did not check this the city But we're going to go ahead and declare three more winners Uh, rhymar feckert and dealak Okay Three more winners. So let's congratulate them. Hey, I know you're at home. It's kind of a meaningless gesture Um, so let's go ahead to the next question Uh The best evidence We have Uh that sasha 11 and greg crow harman have lost their minds is one of these things They wrote a new event notification system for the kernel or they increased the lts support lifetime What are they thinking? And uh, sorry all you embedded linux people who are working on stuff outside the kernel I'm kind of a kernel guy. So this is kind of uh kernel heavy focus on these questions Okay, the answer to this one is Are you gonna be disappointed if you just got in and you get out right again? Uh, the answer is red Uh, let's see here They increased the lts support lifetime They increased it by four years for two two additional kernels So now if you look at that all of the lts kernels have six-year support life cycles that is crazy Um, I really don't know how greg and sasha do it. Um, by the way, there is a new event notification system in I think it was either 5.8 or 5.7, but that was added by david howells So let's go to the next question Okay, what was the first commercial embedded linux distribution? I know there are some oldies out there who Remember this era, but do they remember the exact ordering? Um So there's your answers are between monovist to hard hat linux time sys linux or linio embeddx. There are three commercial embedded linux vendors um Let's I gotta wait for some more answers to to come in Yeah, I wonder if I need to increase the number of processes. They should be coming in faster than that Oh, well, I'm not going to do that live I'm not going to fundamentally alter the configuration for my you micro us ws g i thing. Um, okay, so the answer to this one Is Linio embeddx is the correct answer So if you look at the release dates, they all came out in 2000 and linio only beat monovista by about six seven days The the thing about that is both of all of these companies were working with companies with uh, their customers Uh before these dates, but these are their official release dates So it's actually kind of hard to pin down when each of these is but I'm going with the official press releases from each company. The interesting thing about this is that Embedded linux is now 20 years old. That is just mind-blowing Uh, who would have thought in the year 2000? We'd be where we are now with with literally billions of nodes of linux I think I'd like to declare 2020 as the year of embedded linux. I don't know if the desktop year will ever come uh, but uh But by gum we're gonna Uh, we've done just fine and embedded. Okay. Here's a fun one Then the rise of skywalker rea continues her training under which jedi Is it lea organa or plow coom? Okay, the answers are coming in Hey, i'm gonna go ahead and show the answer Here we go And it was leo organa Uh, so in the movie lea trains rea to become a full-fledged jedi Also in some brief footage. We see lea's own jedi training with luke Uh, hopefully if if you have not seen this movie, uh, I apologize if that's a spoiler Uh, I don't think it's a major plot point, but it's kind of got a nice little bit of trivia So our next question The octo project has its roots in the rpm package management system Uh, is that true or false? The octo based on rpm Okay, i'm gonna go ahead and show the answer And the answer is false bitbake was actually based uh inspired by portage which came from came from gen 2 uh, and so Wow, okay, still in count. We got one more question. Maybe I think we got 14 people left in the game Uh, that one took out a lot of the remaining people busy box Was busy box initially created for mm u-list systems You you see linux Is that true or false? Okay The answer Is False busy box was actually created for debby and boot floppies which did have a size constraint But uh, not it not as bad as the uc linux kyce constraint So this thing that we're using in almost Every embedded product book except for android android switched over to toy box, but uh, that came from Uh boot floppies, uh, which is a good place for it and we have six people remaining So i'm gonna go ahead and declare those people winners So these are the winners from this round Okay So I think we'll we have time for one more game of trivia and then we're going to switch to our second game, which is all chance so, uh, you will just go ahead and Do the next question Okay So what embedded linux build system does spacex use? Oh, and by the way, I just spacex is like cool. Isn't it? It's like, okay, you know, I don't mean to disparage other Space companies, but the fact that they've got linux on that rocket that you're looking at right there. That is pretty cool um So is it yakto project build root or are they using an in-house build system? So i'll wait for the answers to roll in there as we hit a certain number Okay The answer is build root So hopefully thomas petizoni is still on he can uh, he can put a cat feather in his cap for that one That's pretty cool. Um Sorry yakto project you guys have had your victories. Uh, you you have stuff that's running on the international space station and some mars probes So, uh, we don't feel too bad um Okay, according to the debbie in popularity contest Uh, what text editor is the most popular by debbie and users? Is it vim? emacs or nano Uh, and this diet this picture obviously shows, uh, how many fingers? Keys you have to hold down in order to work effectively with emacs Okay, let's show the answer and the answer is nano actually Of course, that's uh, I think that's the reason for that is they default that But this chart if you look at it, it actually goes all the way back to 2010 nano has been popular for forever So the stats have really not changed that much by the way the the graph this chart that Access on the left hand side that's percentage. So close between 15 and 20 percent over time people running nano Okay, and let me see how we're doing on people. Okay Got one more question for you here Okay, about how many of the reported by credits for bug fixes patches in the five dot six kernel are for automated testing systems Is it 20 percent 35 percent or about 45 percent? I'm going to take a sip of water Okay, we've got a fair number of people have answered that now Uh, and the answer is about 35 percent So if you look the top actually the top three reported by lines for bug fixes At least in five dot six are from automated testing systems Uh, I'm a big fan of automated testing. I for one welcome our new automated testing overlords Pretty soon if if we can get that number up to 100 we can all uh go Sit on a beach drinking margaritas or something. Uh while robots are testing the kernel for us. Um, so we're down to Just a few people left. I think I'm going to What do one more question? uh, so This is which of the following is not running the linux kernel Oh, sorry, I got to do this slide too. Which of the following is not running the linux kernel Is it the mars opportunity rover? us nuclear submarines or the large hadron collider So two of those three are running linux. So which one do you think it is? Which one is it not which one is not not running linux? Oh, I'm running out of time here. Okay So we're getting really low on time. I need to leave a couple of minutes. So we're gonna have to wipe this out. Okay, so Uh, the rover actually runs vx works. That's right people nuclear submarines are running, uh Are running Linux actually they're not controlling this up. It's used for the sonar systems, but it's still pretty impressive Okay, so a bad thing happened. I eliminated everyone Uh, so I'm gonna try this one last time and see what happens Did that work? Yeah Okay, so four people are still in I'm gonna declare those people winners Uh, aks Dub Dub do yaya yule and baro. Oh, is that uh baro rosentrans? No, that's that's uh, hopefully uh, well Or someone else named baro that would be good too. So there we go. We have four more winners Uh And uh, we're gonna switch games now So that was the trivia section of our game and now I'm gonna start a different section of the game Uh, it's rock paper scissors So, um, let me go to the instructions for that. Let me see here Okay, so look back at the screen here. Let me see if this this works Okay, so our second game is rock paper scissors And uh, we're it's got the traditional rules. Oh, let's see here So rock beats scissors scissors cuts paper paper covers rock if you beat the presenter you stay in the game Uh, so and I think we're only gonna have time to do one round of this because we're we're getting close to the end here But we still have some prizes left. Uh, so Okay, so let's let's we'll have to do a couple of rounds. So here's here's how it works Uh We start the game I'm gonna put it on this screen. So go back to the game. Uh, use your account and start Deciding what you want to throw now. The rule is you have to beat the presenter so if you tie with the presenter that still counts as a loss Uh, and uh You still have a chance to win. We're gonna do this one a little bit quicker though because like I said, we're running out of time So make sure you get your answer in No, it's taking so long to okay. Here we go Hey, the host through rock So, uh, 92 people are still in Let's go for the next one. I don't have to explain a bunch of stuff here. So Start throwing again for the next one The presenter was rock if you threw paper you won that round So, uh, choose the next one Okay Host through rock again And I apologize if you're new to ELC, uh, you may not know this but Our tradition is that we always throw the rock twice at the beginning of this game. I know that gives an unfair advantage to people Who uh, who are newbies uh at the conference? Uh, but uh, anyway, it is what it is Uh, sorry So I made we get uh, we got a lot of people eliminated on that one. Um So now that I've said that that's what my rule is of course, you'll have to wait and see what I do at ELC Europe uh so Okay Answers are rolling in Okay Okay, let's go ahead and show the result host through scissors this time um And uh, that takes us down to Let's see 23 that takes us down to seven. So I'm going to go ahead and declare the winners These are the people who have won the rock paper scissors challenge So congratulations to those people um, so Uh, that actually is it. Uh, that's that's as simple as it is. Uh, we are very close to running out of time I just have a couple of closing remarks. I'd like to to share with you um so What an interesting year it's been, uh Between uh, COVID-19 and a lot of civil unrest Uh, uh, there's been a lot of a lot of stuff to think about a lot of changes and and people's lives Uh a lot of stress for people to deal with Um, and I just had some observations of my own. I I you know, I like a lot of people I've been browsing the internet. I became a uh armchair epidemiologist learning about COVID and uh stuff like that Uh in terms of the civil unrest one of the best suggestions I saw on the subject of the societal harmony was a joint statement by the national association for the advancement of colored people the NAACP Uh in the united states and the church of jesus christ of latinity saints those two groups got together and issued a joint statement and one of the things that they had in their statement, uh, just I thought was really remarkable and and uh insightful and it said we invite people of goodwill everywhere To look for ways to reach out and serve someone of a different background or race Everyone can do something And uh, there's a lot of psychology behind that statement Doing an active service for someone I think is one of the best ways to uh, learn about them And understand them better and so reach out and try to do an active service for someone else Um, when you look at open source, I'm going to tie it back to open source here If you if you look at the nature of open source open source is all about a communal effort really to make the world a better place Um as developers we like developing technology Uh, and we get focused on the technological details and you know, can I shave this many cycles off of this or you know Make sure that the locking is correct here or protect the security here Uh In our focus on that sometimes I think we might miss that fundamentally we are giving a gift to the world um, we are, uh Sorry gotta close this off here Uh Open source is is really an active service to the world Um, and it's it's a great contribution that all of us are making But it's not a personal active service and uh because of covet 19 I literally am working in my basement all day every day uh, and and it is stressful and uh What what I just want to suggest is that let's keep doing the coding Uh, but also when we can let's go out and interact with other people Um We can make the world a better place uh through our contributions to open source I've really been excited by the diverse international group of people who Participated in ELC as I saw people arriving on the slack channel and announcing where they were from It's really exciting to to know that there's such a Uh a wide uh diverse and geographically diverse Group of people who are all working together towards a common cause and while you're out there coding Don't forget to also reach out to others and especially make an effort to uh Touch the life of someone who is unlike yourself. So with that I will say Uh, thank you for attending ELC I hope that you had a great experience with our online virtual event I hope that you learned something new that will benefit you in your career And in your open source contributions And I really hope to see you next year Uh, and I mean that in a very literal sense. It would be great to be able to see you all So thank you very much and Appreciate your participating and uh good day and good night
