On my way to the #DDDEU conference in Antwerp! See you there!

@weltraumpirat @oskardudycz It also depends a lot on which types of regular expressions we are looking at. There were many extensions to regular expressions, like look-(ahead|behind), or zero length assertions, that raised their power from being a "regular" (Chomsky-1) grammar to a subset of "context-free" (Chomsky-2) grammars.

Regex were my bread & butter, and I still believe learning them will help you a lot when dealing with any kind of string analysis / manipulation.

@tcoopman why not? I am a proud owner of a European motor boat & sailing licence. So there is nothing really stopping us!
Thanks #DDDEU - without that conference I wouldn't have had an absolutely wonderful Amsterdam Sunday on a little boat. It's a completely different perspective, and the weather was beautiful, too. And I heard that Antwerp has a lot of water, too. So I am looking forward to #DDDEU '25! Maybe we can do a #DDD user group on a ship!

To all #StrongTyping advocates:

#Compilers also have #bugs

Sincerely,
Me

@qcoding I learned Python in my first University year. My professor, who was involved in NASA programming projects before, taught it the same way. Unit tests, doctests, objects as abstractions to solve real problems.

When I talk with Python programmers today, I often hear that "all this stuff is unpythonic". Want to use type annotations? Unpythonic! Embarking on DDD? Unpythonic!

It seems to me there is a small subset of the Python language that fits the pythonic label.

The running with scissors analogy:

Go slow holding something sharp or fragile

Run fast holding something wrapped safely

If your system is more robust, you can innovate more quickly without spending so much time on tests, coordination and firefighting.

Dependencies are most often not the problem per se. Dependency on a team that has lack of availability tends to be.

If a team B that a team A is dependent on was available whenever needed it wouldn't be as much of a problem.

A traditional way of trying to solve the lack of availability by planning more doesn't solve the problem because the real amount of needed slack in the system is almost always underappreciated.

Gentle reminder. There is no Team Topologies certification program. No 2-day quick course, no special letters after your name for your CV, no certification circus. 🚫🤡

Instead, we are cultivating an ecosystem of informed practitioners. This is less "monetizable" but ultimately more valuable to all. 🌱

[Virtual open Space] Systems Thinking and Skillful Interaction

Complexity is inevitable. As our software solutions continue to evolve and expand, we need skills that enable us to deliver features, at scale, reliably. The challenge lies in understanding and building up skills to pivot from 'keep it simple' to 'work in complexity'. Let's explore this question together at our upcoming Virtual Domain-Driven Design Open Space Meetup on September 20th, 2023. Jessica Kerr, a renowned systems thinker, will kick off the event with a keynote.
