"As we move towards more automation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, programmers need to figure out ways to develop and leverage an essential, yet often overlooked, skill set." -- @KimCrayton1 ed.gr/rozf


"Having like a strong set of mission, vision, and values means that if you continue to keep focus on those, like shared goals, even as you grow, you won't lose the integrity of them." -- @fintech_becca ed.gr/tk9d


"'Is it unethical to pay someone in, say, San Francisco more money than, say, someone in Arkansas, because ultimately, they're pretty much doing the same job, so why should one person make more than the other, just based off of location?'" --@fintech_becca ed.gr/tlan


"I can only send a finite number of emails in a day. People used to write huge numbers of letters. Look at the heroic efforts that people have done to try to uncover biographical information." -- @webyrd ed.gr/r4yi


"Falsehood #4: 'events in time are instantaneous or rather time is always a point‑based domain.' Beginnings & endings are often processes, not instantaneous events. Rome wasn’t built in a day, I bet we can find a data set that says it was." — @youknowemily ed.gr/suwp


"Last year Funding Circle attended all three Cognitect conferences. We went to Clojure/west, we went to EuroClojure, and went to Clojure/conj, we were able to hire for our team globally." -- @fintech_becca ed.gr/tk4k


"The main thing to remember is why to bring up consistency is you may not hire someone at one conference, but you keep going again and again. Not everyone's looking for a job right this second." -- @fintech_becca ed.gr/tk43


"In both local and distributed context, if we throw something over the fence and say, "It's your problem now," that's going to end badly." -- @ztellman ed.gr/u0z9


"Falsehood number one, is 'the tools that you work with should take care of time for you. We’ve already figured out time.'" -- @youknowemily ed.gr/suvc


"It's better to talk about a process and say, 'I don't know what the other code that I wrote is going to do, so I'm going to assume the worst.' Then, on the other side it's also going to assume the worst. This creates redundancy in the code."— @ztellman ed.gr/u00n


"Can our model and storage let me retrieve birth dates and place them in a reasonably accurate order given they have mixed precision? Are some points on the map longer because we don’t know if it was at 2pm or towards the afternoon?" -- @youknowemily ed.gr/su58


"If you don't have money & pizza and you just offer a space. Make it a potluck. Who cares? At least bring people, make sure you can keep doing it over and over again. Encourage the others in your community as well to attend Meetups." —@fintech_becca ed.gr/tk6f


"Most of my effort is trying to figure out what are the set of practices that are useful for archiving. How do I refill my pens in the best way? How do I make sure my paper doesn’t bend?" -- @webyrd ed.gr/r4y5


"The problem I don’t know how to solve is how we enable users to contribute knowledge we have that might be on an ordinal scale. E.g., the post office was built after the town was founded. Mark Twain was born before me." -- @youknowemily ed.gr/suxg


"If you think about Pandora just recently moved from Oakland to Atlanta because of the cost of living in Oakland. It's not going to last long in Atlanta because now with Pandora there this is going to raise salaries and everything else." -- @fintech_becca ed.gr/tk3d


"These are problems I had, things that have caught me off guard, questions I don’t know how to answer on how to learn get volunteer information from technical and nontechnical people. We’ve got to work together to do this." -- @youknowemily ed.gr/su5s


"For the first edition of 'The Reasoned Schemer', Dan’s motto was, 'If you’re not sure which way to write a chapter, you write it both ways and then you throw away at least one of the two, maybe both.'" -- @webyrd ed.gr/r4ym


"Ultimately business software is basically an automation of a business process. We’re not really trying to invent something. The most value in businesses is had by automating already understood business processes to software." -- @ghoseb ed.gr/qw2y


"There are things that we understand passively in software. We acknowledge that names are one of two hard problems, but we spend no time studying them directly. We just assume that if you write enough code, it'll stop being a bad thing." -- @ztellman ed.gr/u0xy


"That's really big, from 5 people to 80 people the next year. You could say, "It might be because the pizza was fancier," I like to think it was because members of the community spread the word, they knew it could happen again, consistency."—@fintech_becca ed.gr/tk59
