Last week, I presented my talk "๐๐๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ โ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ญโ at devConf 2026. I had a lot of fun sharing one of my favourite topics with such an engaged and receptive audience.
You can find the slides for my talk at:

Tomorrow, Iโll be presenting "๐๐๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ โ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ญโ at ๐๐๐ฏ๐๐จ๐ง๐ 2026. This talk is a deep dive into the origins and core practices of XP, and why these ideas are still very relevant today. Letโs reconnect with the principles that shaped modern technical practices.

Sauf que รงa se fait en รฉquipe. Parce qu'on bosse en extreme programming. Qui implique une responsabilitรฉ partagรฉe du code. Du travail en รฉquipe (mob programming). Et รงa met plusieurs cerveaux sur un mรชme sujet (souvent un sujet un peu gros). Bref, cette mรฉthode de crรฉation de schรฉma a toujours รฉtรฉ ma mรฉthode pour mieux apprรฉhender les choses, ce que j'apprends. Mais lร , j'en ai pris mon parti et le fais pour en faire profiter tout le monde sans exception.
Je conseille de pratiquer cette mรฉthode, c'est vraiment utile pour embarquer tout le monde et les tirer vers le haut :)
Voilร ^_^
I've been writing this piece on and off for around five years now. I've rewritten it a bunch of times. I think it is okay to publish now.

Does your organization prefer or maybe even force pull requests for reviewing and validating changes before integrating to a mainline? I have news for you: youโre engaged in quality theater and the only thing the PRs are doing for you is add cognitive load and delays while preventing you from finding better ways to ensure youโre shipping a quality product without delays.
On ๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐๐๐ฒ, ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก 27, Iโll be presenting "๐๐๐ญ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ โ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ญโ at ๐๐๐ฏ๐๐จ๐ง๐ 2026.

The following excerpt comes from โAll I Really Need to Know About Pair Programming I Learned in Kindergartenโ, an article written by Laurie Williams and Robert Kessler. This article got published in May 2000, but is still highly relevant today.
El mejor cรณdigo no es el mรกs complejo, sino el que cualquier compaรฑero puede leer y mejorar. Eso es Extreme Programming en esencia. ๐ก

Scientific research discovered that human brains โsync upโ when we collaborate. Co-creation patterns in software development do really work. These new findings add to the existing pile of research that others like Laurie Williams have already done regarding pair / ensemble programming.
Collaborative rule learning promotes interbrain information alignment:

It's funny how #ExtremeProgramming is having a comeback with AI.
Practises like TDD, baby steps, feedback loops, CI, iterative planning takes AI from slop to workable.
When I'm most effective with Copilots resembles how I was working a decade ago, when I was practising XP the most.
