I wonder if I’ll be the only person interested in pre-conference drinks tonight… 😄
Hmm... which timezone is your tonight?
Tonight I think I’m still on London time. Or at least I’ll start on London time. 😄 Tomorrow I’ll switch to Vegas time.
Okay, so 15:00 Helsinki time is not optimal since I am running a Scrum simulation for students... So 18:00 London time is an opportunity tomorrow.
15:00 Helsinki time? We’re looking at 19:00 Helsinki tonight: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20201012&p1=136&p2=127&p3=771&p4=101
Oooh, of course. I should have ignored the tool. It seems I get distracted by the impeccable UX which highlighted 15 despite the URL parameters. 😫
On my first encounter I remember finding it pretty slick. Doesn’t seem like that now.
Bummer. Well, I’m sure I will have plenty of opportunities more ))
I’m trying to switch my internal clocks to PDT for the next three days.
I ended up staying awake until 05:00 London time to start on that journey. 😄
I am in Indian timezone so I guess it will be breakfast time for me. Happy to hangout though 😄
I just wrote in my gratitude journal how fortunate I am to be able to take part in an event like this with people all over the world. Coming back to your comment @kapoor.vaidik feels like the perfect confirmation of that thought!
How does the gratitude journal work and benefit? Sounds interesting...
Short version: in the journal write three things that you’re grateful for. Could be large, could be small. From what I’ve read gratitude journaling has a significant predictable impact on our happiness. I believe it is because we practice seeing things to be grateful for and work to bring them to mind, so they become a more significant part of our life.
That makes sense as it focuses the mind on positive things. I find following @humanprogress on twitter helps my keep a positive frame on the world, given the bias toward negativity in most modern media.
I don’t read the news for exactly that reason. Tip: set your location in Twitter to Fiji to remove a bunch of noise from the Trends For You section.
awesome @jtf! what is your timezone? What time do you want to hangout?
I’m London based, currently in BST / GMT+1. How’s 17:00 London / 09:00 Las Vegas / 21:30 India @kapoor.vaidik? https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20201012&p1=136&p2=127&p3=771
Terrible idea for a DOES drinking game: drink every time someone talks about structures and dynamics.
Terrible idea for a DOES drinking game: drink every time someone talks about structures and dynamics.
full disclosure: you’ll be taking a drink during our talk
Why not drink on "incident" or "management" as well?
An answer to the question: “how could we make this game even more devastating?”
I always take a sip when somebody dares to add the redundant Sec
We need a few more to make up the complete card… More suggestions?
COVID and virtual in the same sentence
CAB. Change freeze. Segregation of duties. Let’s not forget where we came from :)
DevSecOps for sure... and @ferrix "Gene and I" is comedic gold. How about references to Phoenix Project and Unicorn Project characters? Like if someone references "Brent" or "Maxine" or "Kurt"...
@ferrix is on the board with the first bread picture! https://devopsenterprise.slack.com/archives/CB0R4BW9G/p1602505311056900?thread_ts=1602504338.054700&cid=CB0R4BW9G
It is @ferrix! I think @kapoor.vaidik may be around as well
I'll put the kettle on. It seems the support team has failed to read my "Get Beer" Kanban card.
Getting a bottle open for my bottle of Old Peculier
where are we hanging? is someone starting a zoom or something?
Anything you’re particularly looking forward to Vaidik, Ferrix?
While I have decided that I am not busy unless there is a real fire (flames, smoke, warmth, no fireplace), I have not had the time to find out what this round of DOES is going to be. I was not disappointed the last time and I am not intending to be disappointed this time either. Also, some of the discussions and BOFs were great and by definition serendipitous
It's my first time at DOES. So I am really looking forward to it and excited to be here.
I was planning to attend London in person. #dammitcovid
Haha. I am not excited to be here. I have been right here on this chair ever since the previous DOES 😄
As good as it gets these days. Out of work, I actually don't have much to look forward to back at home. So conferences are the new "positive" escape.
I enjoyed London immensely. This format with recording and the Slack backchannel was better for me than an in person conference.
The virtual experience with London was better for me as well. As I lean toward introversion, I struggle to engage in the in-person events, especially as the group size increases. Also, being virtual allowed me to attend London (I’m in the US), especially since Travel wasn’t possible and I was paying out of pocket (having gotten the COVID-axe). I hope virtual/remote participation remains for the future and is well integrated into the experience. I do wish they would leave time between sessions for the q&a with the speakers to cadence naturally... Anyway, really glad to hear others prefer some aspects of virtual...
I miss the in person conversations however I don’t think I’d want to lose the Slack channels in the future.
Right. That is truly a good thing to happen to conferences.
I was at the summer cottage for London and that was nice. Due to working days and watching streams until I keel over, that's not going to be an option.
See what we are doing right now is not something that I would enjoy on Slack. Need a bar with good beer and people for conversations.
But the engagement on Slack while talks are on - that was great
I just attended ChaosConf. It was my first virtual conf. Great experience!

status as an obstacle to learning: https://pedestrianobservations.com/2020/09/19/learning-worst-industry-practices/
I’m super excited about this paper, and the potential latent in learning from the periphery.
on view of Toyota as described in High Velocity Edge vs Taylorism is Toyota enables learning at the edges while Taylorism can only learn at the center.
This periphery thinking applies to organizations and within a mind. So, there is all that intuition that we can choose to ignore due to status.
Good read. I think there is a lot to unpack in what it brings up...
Here's a good conversation starter http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4805:uvt9ad.2.2
