8 years in thought works bring agile in large companies small team in trading firm most performant team I’ve ever seen have person X in our team
patterns
effective != productive
Patterns not for beginners best practices are for beginners
===
Dreyfus Squared Dreyfus model + dreyfus squared
Dreyfus model
Novice: needs rules
nothing else
Advanced beginner: test rules
Competent: applies rules
has internalised
Proficient: falls back on rules
instinct, instinct, insight
don’t trust it yet
Expert: transcends rules
no longer think in rules
’expert’ chess grandmaster plays different remember previous games less effort
Dreyfus Squared
novice + expert = x-( someone dies advance + advanced massive learning don’t put into prod competent + novice = :-) proficient + expert = :-D
===
Shallow Silos people that are interested in a task, will do it better relaxed about rotating teams as long as 2 ppl know something

ppl work in vertical cross functional teams don’t work
coaching model near coach (in team) far coach (out team)
ppl embedded in the team get together with the person out of team person out of team must learn
core team, and go out and share eg. DB, networking
===
Warm Welcome really caring about someone joining team
laptop password 1 mail wiki Welcome Name you probably will want to meet these people today … … … find out the next person who will join, and change the name on top

used to believe “if you do pairing, and do it well, you don’t need code reviews”
what are the trade-offs?
idiom: turn of phrase that happens to be there? agreed upon
eg. process sequence of values for iterator map-reduces recursion -> codebase with 4+ dev -> multiple and combinations pythonic scala opiniated language
unusual stuff becomes signal
have junior ppl critique more experienced ppl code “why did you do that” purpose: explain to me why did you do that) effect: Oh my goodness, that’s a really good question allows idioms to emerge in safe environment
you did this thing I did not think of what other things did you discard on the way through that?
===
Hack Day != hackathon day where we don’t do regular day day with a team eg. bug day throughput day
