<strong>Lowering the Stakes of Failure with Pre-mortems and Post-mortems</strong><br>
By:
Elizabeth Sander
<br>
Experience Level: Novice<br>
<span class="gmail-more">Failure can be scary. There are
real costs to a company and its users when software crashes, models are
inaccurate, or when systems go down.<span class="gmail-morecontent"><span style="display:inline">
The emotional stakes feel high-- no one wants to be responsible for a
failure. We can lower the stakes by creating spaces to learn from
failures, and minimize their impact. This talk introduces two ways to
address failure: blameless post-mortems, to learn from an incident; and
pre-mortems, to identify modes of failure upfront.</span> </span></span>

<strong>Limit the Guesswork in Fantasy Baseball by Using Python for Data Analysis</strong><br>
By:

<br>
Experience Level: Intermediate<br>
<span class="gmail-more">Daily fantasy sports has become
a booming industry. One leader in the space is Fanduel who after
raising $275 million in their series E fund<span class="gmail-morecontent"><span style="display:inline">ing,
brought their valuation to over $1 billion. As the popularity of daily
fantasy sports has taken off, critics have argued that success is the
result of luck; yet the consistent success of a select group of players
would suggest that success can be driven by skill. This talk, will go
over how one could use Python to level the playing field. </span> <br></span></span></li><li><span class="gmail-more"><span class="gmail-morecontent"><strong>Python @ Strata</strong><br>
