Digital marketing ROI - An introduction to attribution modellingDifferent Spin
To help you get started in the potentially daunting realm of attribution modelling, we’ve crafted this whitepaper to explore what it is and how you can implement it for your business. We go through some of the most common attribution models and help define which of these is likely to be the best starting point for you.
The minimum viable product (MVP) is the minimum set of features needed to learn from early adopters and avoid building products that nobody wants. It maximizes learning per dollar spent and is probably much more minimum than you think. An MVP allows achieving a big vision in small increments through iteration without going in circles chasing what customers think they want. The unit of progress is validated learning about customers through techniques like smoke testing landing pages, in-product split testing, and customer discovery to minimize the total time in the build-measure-learn loop.

The document discusses the results of a study that compared programming languages C, C++, Java, Perl, Python, Rexx, and Tcl for a search/string processing program. The study found that Perl, Python, Rexx, and Tcl programs took about half as long to write and were half as long as equivalent programs in C, C++, and Java. Memory usage of scripting language programs was about twice that of C/C++, and Java was another factor of two higher. Variability between programmers was as large or larger than variability between languages.
Dennis Benkert & Matthias Lübken - Patterns in a containerized world? - code....AboutYouGmbH
This slide deck introduces several container patterns for building modular and scalable container-based applications. It defines the concept of a modular container and describes pods as a group of closely related containers. It then outlines some common composite patterns including sidecars, ambassadors, adapters, and chains. The document is a work in progress seeking feedback to improve the defined patterns.

Retention Strategies in Mobile E-CommerceAboutYouGmbH
The app is the fastest growing product at ABOUT YOU and already generates a large portion of its sales. New app users to win over different marketing channels is not exactly cheap.
It is thus all the more important to keep the commitment and the retention of the won users high.
E-commerce is a fast-growing market, but most online shops lag behind the conceptual and technical possibilities. Inspiring online experiences are rare and all customers usually see the same, non-personalized, online shop.
By integrating external content from Influencers, Fashion and Consumer Brands as well as users themselves, ABOUTYOU makes online shopping more inspiring and ventures into the field of Discovery Commerce. In addition, ABOUTYOU consistently focuses on personalization and distinguished itself from the competition by an individually tailored shopping experience for its users.
This document discusses various "weird browsers" including those found on smart TVs, game consoles, e-readers, and portable gaming devices. It notes that each has unique characteristics that make web development challenging, such as non-standard screen sizes and resolutions, unusual input methods like d-pads, and performance limitations of technologies like e-ink screens. The document provides examples of how features like viewports, touch support, and media queries often behave differently in these environments than traditional desktop browsers. It emphasizes that reliable device detection is difficult and feature detection may not work as expected.

Stefan Richter gave a presentation on writing simple, readable, and robust code using examples in Java, Clojure, and Go. He discussed his programming experience and showed how Martin Fowler used Java to parse a fixed-length file format into objects. Richter then demonstrated how the same task could be accomplished more concisely in Common Lisp and Clojure using macros to define domain-specific languages. He argued that macros are a powerful feature of Lisp-like languages.
