C.S Lewis wrote, "All mortals tend to turn into the thing they are pretending to be." Just a random thought...

]]> Comment on Fall Conference Appearances by Willem http://me.andering.com/2009/10/09/fall-conference-appearances/comment-page-1/#comment-49211 Willem Mon, 19 Oct 2009 11:41:51 +0000 http://me.andering.com/?p=753#comment-49211 Hi Emily, thank you for posting the links. I was glad to get this post out at all, and planned to add links later. I think It was the clean code challenge that triggered me. I'm glad to see that my mind played a trick on me, so we now have a session that is not (I hope) just a copy but an evolution :) And yes, I'm rather busy with conferences. It's fun to see what other people are up to. For marketing of consulting and training, it seems our way of working comes across much stronger in person than in writing (so far), which gets us working with interesting clients. Conferences also allow us to do small experiments and reflect on them, so we can try out new material and test hypotheses about how people work in somewhat controlled environments :). For instance, Scan-Agile gave us useful feedback on our Story Testing workshop, and we did an experiment with 50 minutes 'lightning workshops' on systems thinking and user story mapping. Hi Emily,

I think the article you may be referring to is this one: http://emilybache.blogspot.com/2009/02/java-ish-python.html I also ran a session at europython called "the clean code challenge" where we tried to use Bob Martin's java Args program as a starting point to discuss what clean code looks like in python. I blogged about europython here http://jsolutions.se/?p=1264 HTH Emily Hi Willem,
