NDC Sydney Lightning Talks
summary
Four short pieces give concrete takeaways: sharing yields measurable benefits via rubber duck problem solving and autobiographical storytelling (research links storytelling to resilience, and elite DevOps teams are 1.5× more likely to hold retrospectives); ageism myths fall to seven practical antidotes (keep learning, tell business value, present, soften skills — examples: Angular, Ionic, Azure, HoloLens); estimation uses trivariate estimation with best/normal/worst and the (B+4M+W)/6 formula for ~95% confidence; serverless warns that FaaS (AWS Lambda 5‑min limit) can be cheaper or costlier than EC2 and needs infrastructure (Serverless Framework, serverless‑attack.com) and scalable data stores.
