#yowwest16 kicking off! Come see me to learn about @canva and what’s happening in the Sydn… https://t.co/vlK9VsIFF2 https://t.co/cssde7bR9w
“Quality is a function of precise thought and reflection” – it’s not just tests failing and catching bugs. #yowwest16 @mfeathers
Introducing hazard to improve quality – like removing road markings and lane separators to get people to slow down. #yowwest16
Ha. I’ve been introducing hazard to my hobby code for years. It’s called writing PHP with no tests. 😂 #yowwest16
Do QA departments make devs less careful? I’ve had this debate many times. #yowwest16
@MitchPommers I believe the only correct response here is “YOLO”. 🙂
@smithcdau I noticed that too! It was my favourite. I showed that one at Canva last year. 🙂
Yesterday @chrisdoble announced in planning that he’d deleted 5K LOC. There were high fives all around! #yowwest16 https://t.co/wuL12D2MFx
This morning: “Has anyone ever told you you look like Jewel Staite?” Me: “Is that Kaylee from Firefly? Then YES.”
RT @RMcKergow: “Overall goal for testing – Less badness” @mfeathers #yowwest16
Managed a quick #speakerselfie with @daphnechong and @thepaulrayner! #yowwest16 https://t.co/wz1IcxiJFc
The truth about data science – 80% is wrangling the data into a form so you can analyse it. @daveathomas #yowwest16 https://t.co/axnQPDC3j4
Ha. @daveathomas throwing some shade at the Yanks. I’ll have to add some last minute Canada jokes to my talk. #yowwest16
“JSON’s the most brain dead way of storing things ever invented.” Tell us how you really feel @daveathomas. 😂 #yowwest16
No tweeting for a while as I charge my phone in prep for @daphnechong’s talk!
I was absolutely regretting leaving my phone to charge during @FakeSamRitchie’s talk. It was puntastic. #yowwest16 https://t.co/qZBY9VS26t
Really excited to finally hear @daphnechong talk about video transcoding system she built for ABC iView! #yowwest16 https://t.co/VdgWEx1aLX
Transcoding at a commercial network is so much harder. Reality TV = no transcoding in advance. Jealous of ABC’s simplicity! #yowwest16
@mootpointer If only. I should’ve added sports too. Those Grand Final clips gotta get online asap. *sigh* Flashbacks.
RT @RMcKergow: TIL: what transcoding is & how the ABC have built a transcoder leveraging AWS. And I actually understood it! @daphnechong #y…
@robdmoore @slace @mdaviesnet Ah, crap! I was in the other session. I will definitely find you guys tomorrow.
RT @weberdc: Awesome talk by @daphnechong on @abciview’s transcoding architecture at #yowwest16! Simple & efficient. Bravo! https://t.co/KX…
Enjoying @RMcKergow’s talk on analysing user stories. He’s doing the @elabor8 team proud! #yowwest16 https://t.co/z3nmDOrT1c
And they do such a fantastic job! #yowwest16 https://t.co/z5H5tDh1aa
Wasn’t that an episode of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”?! https://t.co/ZGgfzNZRfr
Good Agile coaches always advocate using a physical card wall to spark conversations. 👍😍 (I miss my card wall days…) #yowwest16 @RMcKergow
@TarynMusgrave My husband’s response: I think you just have to own it at this point. Buy yourself the umbrella, and knit me ”that hat“. 😊
Looked over and caught @evanderkoogh researching tribbles on Wikipedia. Seriously. #yowwest16 https://t.co/IioAbj8i76
@gilmae Yes, but possibly not in the direction you think. 🙂
The most important part of my speaker preparation routine is the application of the Red Lippie of Power.
We just did the biggest high-five. HELLS YEAH. @daphnechong #yowwest16 https://t.co/6SxlyoIsUT
@daphnechong HA! Wtf is that face I’m making. 🙂
RT @RMcKergow: .@web_goddess giving us the no BS version of what it’s like being a manager. #yowwest16 https://t.co/aTwsRIpnWP
Best feedback: “Your talk was great! I definitely don’t want to ever be a manager.” Whoops. Maybe hit the negatives too hard. 🙂 #yowwest16
Special thanks to @daphnechong for noticing I’d typed MY OWN TWITTER NAME WRONG on my slides with enough time for me to fix it!
One of the awesome things about being a manager: hiring folks like @shvedma @joshhunt @maxwell2022 and seeing them be amazing!
@joshuapaling It was! Not sure where/when that will be available… @yow_oz?
Been waiting all day for @thepaulrayner’s Event Storming keynote! #yowwest16 https://t.co/Zc3kAsWsuJ
Loving @thepaulrayner’s practical tips on using event storming to solve complicated problems. #yowwest16 https://t.co/Kc0NCI2M7Q
Doing a TED Talk: The Full Story – Wait But Why // TBH this wasn’t far off my #yowwest16 experience! https://t.co/iq91ZYqSzn
@mobywhale So cute!! I’m definitely going to the store in London on my holiday. 🙂
@chaitanyakuber I’ll put it up today. It won’t tell you much without the video though.

@TheRealBnut Man, if I had a nickel for every time a woman who hated me was playing the pianoforte…
@evanderkoogh @yow_oz @daphnechong I’ve never been to WA *ever* so I have no idea! Resigning myself to potentially freezing.
Ugh. Yep. Same. @snaxolotl https://t.co/ckHH3nx9Gh
Sent a reply to one of the researchers on our @Hacker0x01 program today. He replied addressing me as “sir.” *sigh*
@miko_a It was actually a couple hours ago. You’re lucky! I spotted heaps of spoilers. 🙁
@nicwinton @sebastiangrail Good drugs, at least? 🙂
Well, @daphnechong and I made it to Perth. #airplanefun https://t.co/xVaiCvarPB
Anyone know if there’s brekkie at #yowwest16 or I should get something on the way? @yow_oz

@randomknits If you’ve got room in the car, I’ll pay for a bottle or two of their beautiful rosé!
@gilmae @randomknits Logan. I think it’s the one named after his wife?
@gilmae @randomknits Brilliant! Thanks so much!
@JennaPrice Ha. The chooks running around @m_mobbs’s garden in Chippendale eating his kitchen waste!
@nicwinton Good luck!!
Talk is ready, suitcase is packed, and I’m counting down the hours until the flight! Can’t wait @yow_oz @daphnechong https://t.co/K2q9y12mMt
@RMcKergow @yow_oz I nearly forgot my phone charger! It was a good thing there was a reminder. 🙂
