@ted.dev shared how he is using Event Sourcing to make TDD easy while building the web version of his TDD game.
Commands generate events. Events change state.
Also the Marker Interface used by his events into a pattern matching switch statement was an awesome trick.
Played Willem Larsenβs Language Hunter game with some Russian speakers. What an interesting collaborative way to make language as a community.

Jayβs very mild code smells was hilarious and led to some interesting arguments.
Some people still like the word βshouldβ in their test names even though they are wrong
After watching Llewllen Falco and @jaybazuzi.bsky.social debate their interpretation of Arloβs commit notation, I am now sold on the value of adding risk to commits.
However I still want my IDE to automatically add the . r commits after an automated refactoring
Lada Kessler had an awesome session showing off some AI Agents.
We got into a discussion of still not trusting code created with Gen AI. @chrislucian.bsky.social said something like βsenior developers are fine using these tools as they know what to look out for, but jr developers should stay awayβ
Highlights:

Biggest Marketplace I think Iβve seen before at an open space. So many good sessions
Me too Jon, we missed you.

Very excited to rest after Agile Open Northwest. All the learning, fun and discussions leave me inspired but tired
Missed my connecting flight as the ventilation wouldnβt turn on. Now because of software bug I have to take a 3rd flight today and add 8 hours onto my travel time.

All the teams Iβve introduced Trunk-Based Ping-Pong have loved it as it encourages taking small steps together. Give it a try on your team and let me know what you think!
Love conditional returns. It makes the code read like a proper English sentence

Sounds like I missed out. I love Ruby and want to use it more
Thank you Woody Zuill for that mantra
Just had an electrician over for an estimate on rewiring parts of my house. He told me he can give a large range quote as he wonβt know what needs to be done until he starts working on it.
I told him thatβs what we call βwe discover the work by doing the workβ.
