19:00 – Code Reviews! Are They Worth It? by Graham Cook
Summary: Code reviews – love them or hate them, they’re something that most good engineering teams do. But how well understood is the process and the potential benefits, not just for the resulting code, but for the team itself? In this talk, I’d like to suggest a framework for getting the most out of code reviews, that can address the ‘soft’ skill side of code review just as much as the ‘tech’ aspect.
19:35 – Make Your Own Luck in an Uncertain World by Philip Foxton
