It’s BarCamp Time!
Well, almost… It’s coming quick, and we need sponsors (as always), to make this a killer, free event for all the BarCampers in Central Florida. To be honest, though, BarCamp Orlando tends to attract nerds and geeks of all ages, creeds, shapes and sizes from all over Florida and the world. Last year we had a group from Freshbooks a la Toronto, our favorite White African, and folks from Miami, JAX, Gainesville, Tampa, Space Coast, Tallahassee… You name it!
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Pushing to main multiple times a day is hard in isolation, leading to delays, large PRs, and merge issues, Ola Hast and Asgaut Mjølne Söderbom mentioned in their talk about continuous delivery with pair programming at QCon London. Pairing enables instant code review, easier refactoring, fewer bugs, and higher team resilience.
