Event Description

Join us as we welcome a special guest from north of the border to give a talk about developing for Windows 8.

About Atley:
I’m Atley and I have what you might call a little tech problem. I am a geek, scratch that I am an ENORMOUS GEEK. I am the guy in your neighbourhood that makes all the streetlights dim when he turns on all of his computers. I’ve been a geek since I can remember and I expect, anyday now, to be the subject of an intervention.
I have been a developer for over 15 years. Right now, I work for Altus Group as a Technical Lead. We make a couple of large ASP.NET applications and, while I love my work, but when I am not there, I am a huge phone geek. I tend to be an early adopter of all sorts of technology and always go over the top, much to the dismay of my family and my bank account! I’m a huge gadget freak and always have tons of tech within reach, most of the time quite literally! I keep at least two fully functioning domains going in my house as well as several different platforms and lots of gadgets.
Aside from being a terminal geek, I am an avid adventurer. Snowboarding, rappelling, bungie jumping, skydiving, base jumping, mountain/rock/structure climbing… if it is hard, I want to see if I can do it.
In order to tear me away from the technologies that I surround myself with, something has to be pretty exciting, unique or challenging. That is why I am a bit of an extreme sports enthusiast. I love any kind of challenge, the more difficult the better.
I love learning and often forsake everything else to bury myself in a new technology. I also love to share information, so always feel free to ask me a question, I’m always happy to help!

Combining Continuous Delivery with Pair Programming: Lessons Learned

Pair programming and continuous integration can go hand-in-hand. 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.
