Story estimates aren't just numbers - they're dev mental health indicators. That mid-story moment when you realise you've underestimated... anxiety spikes, motivation tanks. We've all been there. Fresh blog on why good estimates matter for developer wellbeing... www.sixpivot.com.au/post/why-goo...

@mcrook.com I meant to ask you, what did you you use for your DDD presentation? Those code animations were really cool!

Well that's embarrassing. Was all set to raise a bug report with @pocketcasts.com that I didn't seem to be able to download content over 4G, only wifi. But just checked app settings and it turns out I'd disabled that ages ago and forgot 🤣

MEL ✈️ ADL Heading home

Well that's a nice bonus. Just got approached by the lady at the Virgin Australia gate to see if I wanted to "upgrade" to an exit row seat. Why YES (as a person of long legs) that would be great! I used to ask all the time, but now they sell them as premium most of the time it isn't worth it.

Does what the LLM know about us effect our work efficiency? I did a few experiments asking: I’m a [insert gender] software developer. write me a javascript function to return shoe size based on foot length of the customer First experiment results here: soulsolutions.com.au/does-what-th...

Oh, also I can confirm I was the only person in the congregation wearing an "Animal from the Muppets" t-shirt 😀 I think a few of the regulars liked it though.

Well that was delightful 😀 Surprised my friend (she had an idea something was happening, but didn't know who!) Church service was good (a traditional "high" Anglican?), so very different to my home church, but friendly, welcoming people. Now off to the airport.

A little excursion to suburban Melbourne this morning before flying home this arvo. Hanging out in a trendy cafe, then going to visit a friend's church (she probably doesn't know, so might be a surprise!).

Now at Yarra/Red Room, we have Tracy Bongiorno. She’s sharing about her Continuous Deployment journey. Gitflow slowed their releases down and with painful hotfixes, time for a change!

That was an interesting keynote talk about the current state and future of robotics. Might have to avoid the main hall though as room acoustics (PA wasn't great) combined with background noise from vendor tables makes it hard to hear. #DDDMelb

I noticed the preferred tag for @dddmelbourne.bsky.social conference is actually #DDDMelb, not #DDDMelbourne. I feel like #DDDMelba could have been a nice (yummy) alternative 😀

Looking forward to attending #DDDMelbourne tomorrow! The last time I made it across from Adelaide to @dddmelbourne.bsky.social was back in 2016, and the event has grown a lot since then. I probaby should look at the agenda and figure out which talks to see! www.dddmelbourne.com/agenda

Well that's a nice surprise to wake up to. My (pretty trivial) PR was accepted for the #dotnet SDK. (Just fixing a copy/paste issue in the command line docs for `dotnet test`)

That whole "you need to be at the airport 2 hours before your flight" really doesn't apply to #Adelaide. As I sit here early at the departure gate for over an hour. Though it is good to allow a bit of white space I guess.

@david.wengier.com I'm submitting a PR for github.com/dotnet/sdk, but my changes seem to have a bunch of extra whitespace/line-endings that I didn't intend. Are there special git settings I should use?

So this is the awesome bunch of folks I work with! Most of the time we're all remote, but it's extra special when we can all come together in the one place to catch up. Great to see @sixpivot.bsky.social is now active on Bluesky.
