🪩 Sep 25th at 1PM: [ONLINE] "The pizza party of the future -... Are we moving toward one-pizza-slice teams? 🍕 Explore how coding agents change team roles and responsibility. Katie Clark & Simon Rohrer discuss AI-human collaboration. 🤖 Check it out 👉 https://guild.host/e-ee2xgn

guild.host[ONLINE] "The pizza party of the future - software teams and product value in the age of coding agents"This is a special event where Katie Clark & Simon Rohrer will talk about the impact of AI on team organizations. 💬 Abstract AI will have a huge impact on our software development teams - nobody is sure how exactly, and Simon and Katie don’t have the perfect prediction either! This is not the first time the way we approach software teams has changed: we’ve gone from silos and super specialization to cross-functional Scrum teams and 2-pizza teams; from T-shaped and M-shaped professionals to full-stack, full-lifecycle, DevSecFin…Ops, value streams, Team Topologies and more. We’ve added all kinds of coaches and then removed them again. Now that these teams have AI coding agents doing the typing we are seeing “new” (or maybe not so new?) bottlenecks: value questions (domain/product/requirements) and trust questions (quality/testing/reliability/architecture/process). And we’re seeing suggestions from moving down to one-pizza-teams or even just a product owner and their AI wrangler (a one pizza slice team?) So who is invited to the pizza party of the future? Who makes decisions, who takes responsibility, what new and old roles and skills will be needed? And who is no longer welcome? We’ll take a look at what some of the friendlier agile critics from the past can tell us. We will see how their takes can help us move to a more value-oriented future with agents and humans collaborating on user needs. This session is for… Anyone like us who is trying to make sense of what this AI and agentic coding stuff is going to change about how we work and organize Anyone who wants to learn from the past and avoid making the same mistakes generations before us have made – but now with added LLMs Anyone who needs to make decisions about team setup, staffing, upskilling and training, or hiring and recruiting **🤠 About Katie

🎈 Thursday at 6:30PM: Thinking Concurrency: Dwelling in Erlang and... Dive into the BEAM with Erlang legend Francesco Cesarini! 🚀 Learn why the future of scalable programming is functional. Discussing OTP, immutability, and concurrency. 🧠💻 Check it out 👉 https://guild.host/e/0xen7b

guild.hostThinking Concurrency: Dwelling in Erlang and ElixirJoin us in cooperation with the Toronto Elixir Meetup group. You can attend their hybrid event online or in person through their meetup group, or get the online link by joining here. And don't miss our in person event with Francesco on Friday, March 20 (details coming soon). The functional paradigm has been influencing mainstream languages for decades, making developers more efficient whilst helping reduce maintenance costs. As we are faced with a programming model that needs to scale on multi-core architectures and distributed environments, concurrency becomes critical. In these concurrency models, immutability, a key feature of functional programming paradigm will become even more evident. To quote Simon Peyton Jones, future concurrent languages will be functional; they might not be called functional, but the features will be. At this meetup, we will be discussing why! Francesco Cesarini is the founder and technical director of Erlang Solutions Ltd, the professional services company focused on the Erlang ecosystem. He started his career with the inventors of Erlang at Ericsson's computer science laboratory. From there, having worked on the first release of OTP, he has architected, programmed and supported turnkey Erlang based solutions all over the world, from Telecoms, Messaging and Payment Switches to Blockchain. He co-authored 'Erlang Programming' and 'Designing for Scalability with Erlang/OTP' both published by O'Reilly and lectures at Oxford University. More recently, he became co-host of the BEAM There, Done That podcast.

🙌 Nov 11th at 6PM: [ONLINE] Gregor Riegler: "Extreme AI Augmented... Master Extreme AI Augmented Coding! Teach AI to be your mentee & autonomously craft code. 🚀 Gregor Riegler shares his journey & real-world AI breakthroughs. Don't miss it! 💡 Check it out 👉 https://guild.host/e/1dkgb3

guild.host[ONLINE] Gregor Riegler: "Extreme AI Augmented Coding"This is a special event where Gregor Riegler will talk about augmented coding. 💬 Abstract Augmented Coding is more than just asking an AI to help you write code. You externalize your decision points, heuristics, and workflows into artifacts that the agent can follow. The agent becomes your mentee. As you do that, you change your focus from low-level details to high-level intent and methodology. Decisions that were unconscious become explicit. In this talk, I’ll share my story of how I learned to teach AI a Software Crafter’s approach to development. The agent follows a rigorous TDD process with 121 unique nodes and 131 directed edges that can run autonomously for hours, creating dozens of commits. It covers advanced context engineering and techniques to increase autonomy while aiming to maintain quality. And I will tell real stories of AI-enabled breakthroughs in real-world product development. 🤠 About Gregor Riegler Gregor is a Principal Software Engineer at Tricentis, a market-leading test automation company. He cares about helping people find joy in their work — because he believes that when people enjoy what they do, they create better results. Throughout his career, he has seen how painful software development can be, but he’s also learned it doesn’t have to be that way. Today, he meets people where they are, bringing fresh perspectives and subtle cultural nudges that help teams rediscover joy and deliver better software.

If you're excited to learn how these new tools can enhance and support your skills, please join us! This series is hosted in collaboration with Software Crafters Montreal. https://guild.host/software-crafters-montreal Description: Developers find themselves in a world where old maps no longer apply. The rules of software development have fundamentally shifted, and continue shifting at unprecedented speeds. Drawing from a year of exploration, this talk reveals where AI truly shines - from rapid prototyping to uncovering what we didn't know we didn't know - and hidden dangers that can erode the very trust our software depends on. Come discover the patterns emerging from this new reality: when to explore freely, when to be careful, and what opens up when the old constraints disappear. Bio: Lada is a seasoned practitioner of extreme programming, Test-Driven Development, and Domain-Driven Design who transforms complex legacy systems into maintainable architectures through incremental improvement and continuous refactoring. Her approach pairs deep technical expertise with genuine empathy for both end users and fellow developers, creating resilient systems that truly serve their users.
