Why Hackers love Debuggers - Ottawa, Canada
happened 8 years ago

Debuggers are every software developer's best friend. Today's enterprise applications are getting more and more complex that makes it impossible for programmers to envision all possible outcomes of implemented solutions.

Continuation of Agile estimates - Vancouver, Canada
happened 9 years ago
Organised by The Vancouver Adaptive Software Development Meetup Group
The discussion on Oct 25 was a great intro to the challenges of doing (and not doing) estimates in Agile. I didn't find it very helpful though in understanding best practices. I think this would make for a great idea for a future Meetup. The scenario of a business owner needing a quote on a potential, loosely-defined software project in order to determine possible ROI would be a great model for the discussion, IMO.
