We would like to introduce you to our new interview format, which will be gradually added to our blog. As the first in line, we interviewed our Croatian colleague Mario Plantosar, who is a react native developer. He told us what he does in his free time, how he hacked a computer at his elementary school, and when is the best time to visit Zagreb.
Welcome to this interview where we dive into the world of product owners in the software development industry with our colleague Karol. According to him, being a product owner is an exciting and dynamic role that includes a wide range of responsibilities. We will find out what he learned in the Romanian city Cluj and also, what vacation destination he recommends. So, let’s get into it and explore what it’s like to be a product owner in this rapidly changing and innovative field! :)
Data science has become a powerful field that combines statistical analysis, machine learning, and domain knowledge to extract valuable insights from complex datasets. By leveraging data collection, cleaning, exploration, modeling, and visualization techniques, businesses can uncover patterns and correlations that drive innovation and decision-making. Let’s explore the exciting world of data science and its transformative impact across various industries.
Some people bike or watch series in their free time. Our colleague Michal Géci, however, used that time to create his own arcade game called Ulrich. It’s about a vampire who one day receives a strange letter. After long nights of story development, drawing, programming, and composing music, he revealed more to us :)
Our client is one of the biggest suppliers of spare parts for transport vehicles and buses in Slovakia and the only producer of buses in our country. With more than 90k different kinds of commodities in its warehouses and growing operations every year, the point where all the stock movements in, between and out of the warehouses became particularly challenging was reached. It has had certain implications for controlling, reporting processes and in overall transparency of financial and data flows in company.
Scrum is a mechanism to manage projects which was created as a group of people discussing and advising on how to solve a concrete problem. Its creation meant the introduction of individual parts of a development team to the self process of making specification which elegantly made room not only for developers but also common users whose opinions started to matter more then any time before.
Last month, I had an opportunity to visit one of the biggest tech summits in Europe — VIVA technology in Paris.
Interns are made to take a plunge and we take it, as well. Since the very beginning of localhost.company, we have been cooperating closely with students from SPŠE, TUKE and IAESTE. These collaborations were brought to a next level this May in form of a unified HR platform — IT Summer Camp (ITSC) which is focused on acquisition of talented people.
At high school, we were to attend student research and professional activities program (SOC) organised by the ministry of education. Physics projects led by our physics teacher had already had their rich tradition. Younger students took over projects after the school’s graduates and one of those was called “magnets”.

In our IT and SW engineering world, we are (finally) becoming more and more “people-centric”. Many enterprises and corporates realised, that the most precious “assets” they have are their people. Companies invest a lot to their employees to boost their talent and innovative mind, creating competitive advantage for them. On the other hand, behaviors, emotions, mood within the teams, attitude and soft skills in general are carefully observed to retain the talent within the company. Consequently also employees are more and more interested in company’s reputation, their activities, if the company is eco-friendly, transparent etc. when joining it.
What is PSD2? As of January 2018, a new regulation for payment services within the EU market has been in place. PSD2 meant revolution in financial services area. According to the regulation, each bank is to allow access to online client’s account for third parties. This act applies to every payment account providers within the EU, no matter the size of organization. The bank and the third party communicate via secured API — application programming interface. This enables third party to inform client about their account status without the need to log into bank’s environment or even process payments on their behalf.
