## [3 Reasons to Volunteer at a Tech Conference 💪🏼](https://medium.com/@lisaychuang/3-reasons-why-you-should-volunteer-at-a-tech-conference-19a0c81d1d8)

[@lisaychuang](https://twitter.com/lisaychuang) shares her experience from this year’s EmberConf, and encourages newcomers in any tech community to **attend a tech conference** (and possibly **volunteer**!).

As a volunteer, you can get:
* A warm welcome to the community
* Behind the scene access
* A chill home base during the conference

Curious to learn more? Check out her post on Medium: [3 reasons why you should volunteer at a tech conference](https://medium.com/@lisaychuang/3-reasons-why-you-should-volunteer-at-a-tech-conference-19a0c81d1d8).

## [Dependency Lint RFC ✨](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/464)

[@Alonski](https://github.com/Alonski) proposed that the addon `ember-cli-dependency-lint` should be added to the **default blueprint**.

This lint helps us detect early if our addons rely on the same package but use different versions. In such cases, Ember CLI merges all versions into one. This can cause our app to behave unexpectedly and become hard to debug. 😨😰😱

You can learn about `ember-cli-dependency-lint` addon and how to resolve dependency conflicts at [https://github.com/salsify/ember-cli-dependency-lint](https://github.com/salsify/ember-cli-dependency-lint). Be sure to leave your comments on [the current proposal](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/464).

## [`{{fn}}` Helper RFC 🎉](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/470)

Check out the `{{fn}}` Helper RFC opened by [@rtablada](https://github.com/rtablada) that introduces clear argument passing for functions in templates.

The `{{fn}}` RFC should solve for some of the complexity and confusion around the current action helper. The new `{{fn}}` helper will take in a function and set of arguments that are partially applied to the function (with no need for build time private APIs), and context binding will be done using the `@action` decorator in classes.

For more on the detailed design of the proposal, including comparisons to the action helper/modifier and some alternatives [see the full RFC](https://github.com/emberjs/rfcs/pull/470).

## [Animation and Predictable Data Loading in Ember 🐹](https://crunchingnumbers.live/2019/04/02/animation-and-predictable-data-loading-in-ember/)

[@ijlee2](https://github.com/ijlee2), a first time attendee at [EmberConf](https://emberconf.com/), shares a [tutorial](https://crunchingnumbers.live/2019/04/02/animation-and-predictable-data-loading-in-ember/) on how to load complex data in a predictable manner and how to **use animations** to liven up your Ember applications.

The **tutorial** covers how you can use simple animations using [Ember Animated](https://github.com/ember-animation/ember-animated) and [Web Animations API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Animations_API) to help make your applications feel more dynamic and polished!

Another interesting area the tutorial explores is **predictable data loading**, overcoming bugs that you may encounter when having models and relationships and how you can use [Ember Data Storefront](https://github.com/embermap/ember-data-storefront) to aid tackling some of this issues! Definitely worth checking out!

Read the [full article](https://crunchingnumbers.live/2019/04/02/animation-and-predictable-data-loading-in-ember/) alongside some video previews or check out a preview of the [demo app](https://ember-animated.herokuapp.com/) from the tutorial.

## [Reflecting on Being a Former Noob 👶](https://medium.com/@adamzdanielle/reflecting-on-being-a-former-noob-d5e192907ae)

While realizing she's no longer a beginner, [@danielleadams](https://github.com/danielleadams) documents her thoughts on what **more experienced developers** can do to **help** those **newer** to the tech industry and working as developers. Check out her [blog post](https://medium.com/@adamzdanielle/reflecting-on-being-a-former-noob-d5e192907ae) on the subject, stemming from her experience being a **mentor** at EmberConf!
