I honestly think it was one of the best talks over there. It was like a breathe of fresh air and I told myself “Wow, that’s exactly what I need!”.

Super enjoyed @avdi’s talk on ensuring you as the developer understand the potential consequences of writing code and ultimately understanding what business case there is for solving it with code
