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

@u1traq Yep, I was tweeting during his keynote.
RT @WoodyZuill: I’m packed and ready to head to #yow16 Sydney. Thanks to the organizers, volunteers, speakers, and attendees for a great B…
@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

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

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

@rosepowell @TheRealBnut I’d like to point out that I didn’t randomly pick HTML. It was suggested!

RT @seansonbronson: “Cloud: the worst term that’s been forced upon us” @IanDCrosby #yow16

They let me DING it this morning. Truly an item off the bucket list! 😆 #yow16 https://t.co/bIHsRodLPK
Fantastic intro for @stuartsierra from track host. He turned a staunch Haskeller into a closet Clojure fan! #yow16 https://t.co/15z5fvAqxB

@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.
Paypal in 2011 was a different place. Changing a word on the site could take 6 weeks! Hearing stories from trenches from @billwscott #yow16 https://t.co/MxI9Zz0rwx
Naming your open source framework “kraken” is serious genius. #yow16 @billwscott https://t.co/IC0zRaA2a9
@KathyReid BTW – are you going to be at LCA next month?? Knitting circle at @KatieConf!
