Happy Friday 👋

Welcome to the #9 issue of Tech Talks Weekly! This week has brought some fantastic talks from GOTO, NDC, CppCon, KubeCon, Observability Day, WASM I/O, and many more.

Three quick tldr; updates and then we jump right into the talks:

1. I’ve added a new section called 🔥 Past issues favorites containing those talks that generated most engagement in the previous issues.

2. I would highly appreciate if you mention Tech Talks Weekly to your friends/coworkers by, for example, sharing it with your teammates on Slack. This helps me with my mission of building a community around people who enjoy watching tech talks. Thanks a ton 🙏

3. Another special edition of Tech Talks Weekly with all JavaScript conference talks from 2023 has been published this week 🎉. More special editions to come.
