    There are cases where containers are not always the best fit… – @IanDCrosby #yow16 https://t.co/kmzRtoe0lC

    OH at #yow16: “What’s your Twitter handle?” (That was @apaipi to her HUSBAND @erikcorry. 😂)

    “I mean, who DOESN’T want to invent their own computer language? Fame! Fortune!” @erikcorry #yow16 https://t.co/BWWGlTPkVe

    RT @richard_lopes: I need to invest, buy share in that company making stickies. Those #Agile freaks are all crazy about them 😁 – #yow16

    Heh. @erikcorry’s compiler – which he is building live in front of us! – got applause for being faster at regexp than grep. 👏 #yow16 https://t.co/ujVyK819IY

    The fabulous @GRobilliard introducing @randommood for her talk on the architectural patterns of distributed systems. #yow16 https://t.co/gOoVP7y51r

    RT @stuartsierra: Don’t know any Clojure/Datomic? No problem! Come to my #yow16 talk this afternoon for conceptual overview

    Different strategies to build resilience based on Borrill’s model. – @randommood #yow16 https://t.co/EZazQu4v33

    Trust me, #yow16 attendees, you want to stick around for Dr. Little’s keynote tonight. It’s EXCELLENT.

    So now we know some design patterns for building resilient systems, @caitie is going to show us how to verify their correctness. #yow16 https://t.co/cfzXSsoQZB

    😍 Thanks @tcampezzi! #yow16 https://t.co/cYFmKaL7LW

    Love emphasis on academic papers & research from speakers like @caitie and @randommood. As @unclebobmartin said: don’t stop learning! #yow16 https://t.co/DFKjaw1TFV

    @boyter Where are you, anyway? You should be here!!

    @boyter Gahhhhh. Next time!

    @evanderkoogh You mean NOT moving to US, right?

    Final talk – @jedws introducing @mjpt777′s talk “Engineering You” #yow16 https://t.co/zGVxIZEAFg

    Watching as @daveathomas introduces @DrBrianRLittle for the third and final time at #yow16! You’re all going to love this. 😁 https://t.co/H07m1JWm2H

    @BeeropsMegaMix @stphnwallace In a cab with a contingent of YOW folks. There soon.

    Proud to represent @yow_oz at the #BeeropsMegaMixer! #yow16 https://t.co/egn3Qhfg4M

    Making sure my #yow16 lanyard is appropriately decorated for Day 2. Don’t forget my talk on KNITTING AS COMPUTER CODE at 4:25 in Green! https://t.co/kugVRyqG2J

    @delitescere @conors10 I’ve met him, and I’m not sure either.

    @stphnwallace Looks fun – but geez, I see like 2 women there! We need to work on that. 🙂

    Only a handful of tickets left – don’t miss out on this fun event! #BeeropsMegaMixer Sponsored by @yow_oz https://t.co/J2dkdr3LUQ

    RT @malgroves: Getting excited for @yow_oz Sydney tomorrow. Best Aus Tech conference of the year, every year.

    @darthted The mark of a good conference!

    Still hoping to make it to #ctosummit for @darthted and @mark_sabbatical‘s talks! #comeontaxi #yow16

    Made it in time to catch the second half of @philchan612′s #ctosummit talk on some of his experiences at IBM! #yow16 https://t.co/2u5tRIw5ow

    Very nice of @mark_sabbatical to start his #ctosummit talk with a Welcome to Country. And yay, women from computing history! https://t.co/Zr0k1aa6bk

    “Privacy questions are the tobacco questions of the 21st century.” We’ll realise things are BAD soon! @asymco @mark_sabbatical #ctosummit

    There appear to be no free candy bars at this event. *glares at @delitescere* +1 to @simonraikallen #ctosummit

    Last #ctosummit speaker is @darthted, dispelling some of the myths of distributed teams. https://t.co/U7lmMJFyta

    Hidden costs of remote teams: travel, facilities, recruitment, training, comms equipment (critical!), legals, salaries. @darthted #ctosummit https://t.co/v6GaaR4PrN

    Haha, @darthted confessing he got his Manifesto idea from @simonraikallen at last year’s #ctosummit! “Well worth every penny…”

    In the end, conventional wisdom is not that wise. Key takeaway from @darthted’s excellent and useful #ctosummit talk! https://t.co/GnVvjLGTWs

    And here’s PC member @delitescere capping off the 2016 Sydney #ctosummit and giving #yow16 a lovely testimonial! https://t.co/wZeZJ92cWz

    @nunami Go back in time and buy your ticket prior to last week. 🙁 Sorry – I think they’re all gone.

    @caitie @randommood I’m in the lobby!

    Special @yow_oz @WWCSyd crossover event kicking off at Atlassian. Great job @lucykbain and @jedws for pulling it together! https://t.co/85AaXnyhtM

    First speaker is @randommood talking about the Fallacy of Fast. #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/mlSMv3NXnG

    First mistake companies make trying to move fast is deprioritising tests. – @randommood #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/6KUYUZbuXZ

    Some form of monitoring dashboard should be part of your MVP. Don’t deprioritise insights. @randommood #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/sowkMnRhXs

    Deprecate your go-to person. Hero culture of tech actually results in knowledge silos. It’s not good for your organisation. #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/ZrdYSvwxZ1

    Next @rebeccaparsons is telling us why we should care about evolutionary architecture. tl;dr Things are moving faster! #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/rWajDRKObY

    You define what’s good for your organisation, and then you design your architecture to fit and support that. @rebeccaparsons #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/mnKKfbpVkd

    “I’m from Thoughtworks, so I have to mention testing. It’s the law.” 😂 @rebeccaparsons #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/vdvkW4qqyu

    Last speaker is @caitie talking about distributed systems and eventual consistency. #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/RD9NVPilat

    “[I]t is desirable…to permit users to continue modifying resources…when the networked is partitioned.” Quoth @caitie: “DUH” 😂 #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/Xa1PQJyALA

    Hey look – @cmeik gets a shoutout in @caitie’s slides! #wwcsyd #yow16 https://t.co/7LxS0lVf2m

    @desplesda Actually email may not have gone to speakers yet. But departure at 10:30.

    @themaninblue Pretty much. Speakers have had two iterations to improve too!

    Pinterest was growing fast, but wanted to know WHY. So they hired people like @arburbank to figure it out! #yow16 https://t.co/d4HnItPHWX

    Build clean data sets. Don’t rely on future people in your company knowing all the complicated contextual filtering rules. @arburbank #yow16

    Building A/B testing framework is key to moving data science insights from correlation to causation end of the spectrum. @arburbank #yow16

    FYI – other sessions at 2:10 are being recorded, so you can watch later. Imagine being able to say you were AT the #yow16 knitting talk! 😜

    @thepaulrayner @DamonOehlman @canva Nailed it.
