It is Hogmanay 2030. A giant upside down purple cow zeppelin floats above what is left of Edinburgh, now named 'Uddinburgh'. It's eyes are laser cannons, shooting anyone attempting to enter UdderZone One without the requisite prepaid genetic implants.
Last night @DeliverooEng hosted an Ada Lovelace Day get together for female engineers - we had 11 lightning talks - and 4 of the speakers had never spoken before. And this pic isn't even *all* of the speakers. Thanks for coming everyone - you were all *amazing* 🥰💪🎉
Today I've been super quiet as I've been squirrelled away in a room interviewing candidates for our first software engineering apprenticeship scheme, partnering with @makersacademy. I am SO excited that this is happening. 💪🎉
Good API’s make things easier by providing a layer of abstraction between complex systems and I think it’s a pretty good metaphor for collaboration and communication. Abstract away the crufty bits so the interfaces are clean and interactions are more elegant (and more pleasant).
Huge thanks to everyone who turned up today. Full house. Special thanks to @andyrobnsn@oliphantly @elldeecee_ @froots101 for helping out. Really enjoyed it!
In 2 weeks, I’ll be in Edinburgh back to this great event and teaching a low-cost, half-day masterclass. You should join me:
