We're excited to announce our #YOWTLS25 keynote Annie Vella!

She'll explore AI-assisted development's long-term impact, why keeping systems (& orgs) simple still matters, & what to be mindful of before short-term gains turn into long-term costs in 'The Duality of AI in Software Engineering'

Next up is Simon Wardan, bravely following that AI rant with a talk on incorporating AI as a system component. Doing a good job of highlighting best practices for incorporating AI *where it makes sense*. #YOWTLS25

I really like this point: When you join a new org as a manager, you have about a month for “Sorry not sorry,” where you can get away with stuff because they’ve invested so much time/effort in hiring you. Use it wisely. #YOWTLS25

Loved @codefrenzy.bsky.social 's keynote at #yowtls25 about the dualities of AI in software engineering! For everything we gain in adopting AI, what are we giving up? Learning? Intuition? Quality? Identity?

After lunch, we have Rasmus Lystrøm giving a barnburner of an AI rant. To paraphrase Nietzsche, if you stare at an LLM long enough, you become more like an AI - hallucinating and full of bullshit. 😂✊ # YOWTLS25

Next up is Fredy Lievano, sharing a war story about inheriting a broken team with missed deadlines and unhappy customers, and how engineering leadership can respond to crisis. I especially liked his reminder right at the start… #YOWTLS25

What happens when your “2 pizza team” needs help from another? 🍕+🍕

Atlassian's John Viner breaks down how they coordinate dependencies across teams using the “COMMIT” process. Catch it at the #YOWTLS25 (Syd & Melb only).

Next up is John Viner talking about how Atlassian handles dependencies at scale, a difficult problem with 700 different engineering teams. Tried a lot of different methods over the last 15 years… #YOWTLS25

Next is Sarah Taraporewalla talking about AI-first software delivery beyond just coding assistants. Higher coding throughout puts pressure on the system. Engineering practices still matter, if not more than they did before. #YOWTLS25

“As an engineering leader, we should be expected to sharpen our sword as much as our devs.” Adel Smee shared great insights for supporting your Eng leaders to learn and grow — including the Society of Cool Kids, a fortnightly meetup where their leaders go to share challenges & learnings
