@PulumiCorp Ah, yeah @PulumiCorp looks cool,
haven't found the time to try it out, yet, to see how it compares to CDK.
It would have been great to try it for my current work on Azure, but it seems to
not support AD B2C:

@PulumiCorp No, I need to set up an AD B2C:

I will just attend and enjoy the very last #EuroTestConf ...
@pati_gallardo

The pre-conf meetup location is ... uhm ... massive! #EuroTestConf


.@jlengrand opens the pre-conf meetup
@ING in Amsterdam. Amazing food and discussion about
testing are already happening! Oh, there are also stickers! Look out for
@marianneduijst's sketchnotes!



"Throw out the term 'Testing Phase'!"
@janetgregory and
@lisacrispin want everyone in a team to
become a quality advocate, because it requires an entire teams knowledge to
build great products, not just a dedicated role. We all can learn to be that!
#EuroTestConf


Oh, Janet's Twitter handle is wrong on the slides:
@janetgregoryca is correct!
Learning about Pact over beers. #EuroTestConf


I think we can summarize tonights #EuroTestConf discussion we had with:
Do more of everything, do less of your thing.
Very excited to share the next days with a group of people who care for quality
in software! It's all about #humans, #testing, #innovation, #collaboration and
more. #EuroTestConf is on!




A premiere at #EuroTestConf: @mirjam_diala
is giving her first keynote and shares her love for test-driven development (and
dogs).




#TDD is very rewarding for humans, the cycle of breaking down a big problem into
very small steps and getting them implemented leads to correct software ... and
happy developers! 🧠🍬🎉 -- @mirjam_diala at
#EuroTestConf
Don't forget to refactor your tests as well, they are code too!
@mirjam_diala's way to explain #TDD is
really amazing and extra kudos for the way she effortlessly uses plain language
to introduce the important concepts. #EuroTestConf
What @mirjam_diala thinks #tdd is about:
#EuroTestConf
Learning about contract testing with pact from
@nelisboucke and
@matteo_pierro at #EuroTestConf




In the #EuroTestConf with @lisacrispin and
@janetgregoryca to learn how to create a
shared understanding in your team using frameworks like the 7 dimensions of
quality.


Getting some really useful tools explained hands-on in this workshop by
@lisacrispin and
@janetgregoryca: they to uncover many
hidden assumptions that you wouldn't have thought exist! #EuroTestConf


The technique is explained in the book "Discover to Deliver" (and in this post):

#EuroTestConf
At #EuroTestConf @ezagroba and
@j19sch share their experiences setting up mob
testing @Mendix.
@Mirolitka Thank you! 😊 I'm just paying back
what I receive here!
@dinzydinzy check out
@tech_voices
I facilitated a lean coffee circle at #EuroTestConf and we had great discussions
about the future role of the tester, how to do API testing, and the ideal size
of a mob.
Very cool to receive a kudo about my talk from last year at #EuroTestConf from
someone who got inspired to test on production infrastructure and discovered an
expired certificate!
How DevOps enabled the tester @Maaikees to grow
and leave her narrow box of being a tester. A DevOp environment creates
opportunities for people to use all their skills. She points to
@jessitron's post on #symmathesy for
inspiration.
https://blog.atomist.com/the-origins-of-opera-and-the-future-of-programming/


@PatrickHeneise Great question,
unfortunately not. The point of lean coffee discussions at
@EuroTestingConf is to be very specific
to the people in the circle (as opposed to the talks and workshops we have
here), so it cannot easily be summarized.
@EuroTestingConf
@a_bangser Damn right.
We get to listen to the amazing
@pati_gallardo talk about DevSecOps and how
to integrate security concerns into our software lifecycle.
She starts of with praising @nicolefv's book
Accelerate.


#Testing oriented in the #Cynefin framework: #EuroTestConf
@PatrickHeneise
@EuroTestingConf Yeah, it's optimized for
the people who can afford to pay for the event and come here. It's a privilege.
How to prepare for handling security incidents: --
@pati_gallardo at #EuroTestConf
"Developers are constantly making new things and annoy everybody else.
But remember, that's why we get paid."
Great sentiment from @pati_gallardo who
encourages us to care more for the respectively other profession.
Now in the hands-on workshop with
@bernardobridge on pact. #EuroTestConf
Really amazingly packed talk full of concrete advice on security best practices
and how to make security an integral part of your development pipeline. I highly
recommend to check out @pati_gallardo
slides, and if you get the chance go see this talk! #EuroTestConf

"Should we just delete it?" @jrosaproenca
talks about the love to keep all tests around ... forever. #EuroTestConf
The value of tests change over time, because features mature and some
regressions never reappear.
Revisit your test suite with these ideas in mind to reduce overhead.
Here are the quadrants: #EuroTestConf
Really excited to learn from
@CrystalMbanefo about different ways of
giving and receiving feedback! #EuroTestConf
Whenever we give feedback we trigger these emotional needs: #EuroTestConf
The purpose of feedback is to help the recipient to help them reach their goal
which should align with the company's goal. Behave like a coach not like a
punisher. @CrystalMbanefo #EuroTestConf
But what about the other way around: Giving feedback to leaders. If you are a
leader this is equally critical, because this kind of feedback can provide
critical details which are not visible to a manager.
@CrystalMbanefo #EuroTestConf
It's important to create a safe environment where feedback can be given without
fear. Being able to receiving critical feedback with an open mind is key.
@CrystalMbanefo #EuroTestConf
What about feedback for teammates and peers?
@CrystalMbanefo dives into non-violent
communication as a tool for changing ones mindsets to enable more honest and
productive discussions in situations of conflict. #EuroTestConf
Here is concrete example: @CrystalMbanefo
#EuroTestConf
Sometimes this will not work, and the invitation / request will be denied.
@CrystalMbanefo deals with these kinds of
situations by reflecting and adapting her own needs. It's our responsibility to
fulfill our needs, not someone else's. #EuroTestConf
It's absolutely worth to improve on your feedback skills:
@CrystalMbanefo #EuroTestConf
We are huddling close together to learn from
@bernardobridge about
@artilleryio in the #EuroTestConf open-space.
We came to the end of an amazing journey:
@Ulrikama is giving the final keynote of
#EuroTestConf


With the great power we have as developers comes the responsibility to have
honest conversations about our work. @Ulrikama
at #EuroTestConf
"It's easier to get a new job than it is to get back your self-respect."
@Ulrikama is citing the amazing

companies who have ample experience with remote workers).
I think it's not put forward as a study, but to underline the benefits many see
in remote work.

@mishkathebear
@NordicTweets Note that that you can break
of the debug connector to make it even smaller.
Components could be on the other side, but that would increase the height, esp.
since the battery would be there.
So it's always a compromise on complexity of layout and size.

Re: salaryY It's sad that very few companies see it as an opportunity like
@buffer for to be transparent about their pay:
https://open.buffer.com/salary-formula-changes-2019/ After all it's a
component of the overall package, keeping it secret leads to mistrust and unfair
advantage for privileged candidates.
Your employer cannot forbid you to talk about your salary. Such contract clauses
are illegal.
It reduces a lot of friction during reviews if you as a company have a clear
salary ladder. Employees can even review their own progress regarding their next
step.
The big staffing companies compile yearly salary overviews, which is a great
source for understanding current market rates.

this is a great opportunity for you but also what you think you can contribute
to their business.
@vicbergquist
@NordicTweets Well, we call them Graduates,
and will not have the Junior in their title, but the jobs are very suitable for
those with limited job experience.
@borderless_dev This world is a mess.
There is no single reason in there why a #blockchain is the best solution for
integrating known and trusted parties, who individually have the power to
authenticate transactions: https://www.ibm.com/case-studies/db-systel-and-ibm
Reading this I wonder if #blockchain was used here to sell consultancy work, but
not for the benefit of the project.
Also they can't put ticket holder data on the blockchain, so I'm highly
sceptical to some of the claims for speed and cost savings made in the document.
In case you need to visualize the signal strength of

@dc7590 Transparency of what and to which extend?
Transparency for EVERYONE, or just between trusted parties? Both can be achieved

Blockchain.

@1ts_me_cc Yes, basically all tech companies located in Scandinavia have English
as a working language, and the local language is not a requirement. But it's
very much appreciated if you learn some Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, ... but for
Germans that is rather easy.
@1ts_me_cc You will find many job ads written in English, which is a clear sign,
but you will also often be able to apply without speaking it for tech roles.
Just ask, it's a very informal culture here.
@1ts_me_cc However, for non-tech roles the story is very different, good spoken
Norwegian is required, and that's hard because of strong accents. It typically
takes 3 years to be fluent enough for these jobs. But I guess this is not
relevant for you.
@1ts_me_cc I'm happy to jump in a video call and tell a little bit more about
how work here in Trondheim @NordicTweets is
for a German.
@1ts_me_cc Yes, definitely. That's the difference, when your language works in a
densly populated region (DACH, ~100 million ppl)...
@1ts_me_cc @NordicTweets Cool, PN me with
some times that work for you.
It's been a while since I have been this impressed with a German TV show. DARK

@stefanjudis I want to implement offline
notifications via email for messages in @twilio
Chat. I haven't found that to be available out of the box, am I right?
@jrosaproenca Just curious: Do you watch in
in German with subs, or dubbed?
@jrosaproenca Ha, then you've learned some
amazing German words:

@stefanjudis
@twilio 👌 Whatever fits your schedule!
@jrosaproenca Well, it's shot in Brandenburg

@borderless_dev
@DistributeAid
@twilio It's a test runner I wrote in TypeScript
(https://github.com/coderbyheart/bdd-feature-runner-aws), which can run the
feature files which are written in Gherkin
(https://docs.cucumber.io/gherkin/).
@TwilioHelp Yes, that's what I figured. Have
users provide their email addresses, and I will set up a webhook receiver which
checks their consumption horizon (and previous notification state) to decide
whether to send them a notification.
@borderless_dev
@DistributeAid It's now part of the
@DistributeAid tech stack!
@stefanjudis
@TwilioHelp Yes, I know what to do. I'll try
to make it reusable so other don't need to do it again (if they are on AWS).
@RealIvanSanchez Haha, cool that you
spotted it. We are actually working on providing better examples which do not
use bloated JSON (which was chosen for human readability), but does not make
much sense on constrained devices.
@RealIvanSanchez It's in a longer article
over here where I point this out:
https://bifravst.gitbook.io/bifravst/cat-tracker-firmware/protocol#json-as-a-data-format
But that's not really relevant for {DevZone article.

@alexmuench Elephant Carpaccio
is what we call it in the software world:

@RealIvanSanchez
@NordicTweets I agree that the device should
send the raw GPS data (which we do in newer examples like in the cat tracker
firmware), and leave unnecessary computation to the cloud. I am pushing for this
internally every day, but it's not easy to convince everyone why this is a bad
idea.
@RealIvanSanchez
@NordicTweets AFAIR the decision to send
NMEA dates two years back when we were sending SIMULATED data from the device,
not using the GPS, so there was no raw GPS data to begin with. In presence of
higher priorities and simplicity in the SDK it was kept as is when using the
real GPS sensor.
@RealIvanSanchez
@NordicTweets
@internetofshit I appreciate that you took
to time and energy to point this out. It encourages me to keep pushing for ultra
low power solutions on all layers.
Only in the US of A.

@RealIvanSanchez
@NordicTweets Ah, I think we have some
misunderstandings on what we mean with raw data.
I mean lat, lng, and maybe accuracy in binary form, which is sufficient for most
applications.
I don't mean the literal raw data that you get from the sensor.
@RealIvanSanchez
@NordicTweets
@internetofshit It's what I truly believe.

Good Morning from sunny #trondheim 🇳🇴
It's demo time next week @embedded_world,
and I'm preparing a small fleet of #Thingy91 for a cool demo! #ew20 Find
@NordicTweets at booth 310 in hall 4A:
https://www.nordicsemi.com/Events/2020/Embedded-World-2020
@HaganeNoEnjinia @embedded_world
@NordicTweets It's built on AWS IoT, which
is serverless, but that's not new, this time we are showcasing UDP connectivity
via NB-IoT and Bosch's environment sensor BM680.
@aIoTDeveloper
@embedded_world
@NordicTweets I haven't checked with the
other teams if we'll have a demo, but it's worth coming by to get the latest
update on our support for Bluetooth 5.1 Direction Finding. You can book a
timeslot if you have concrete questions:
https://response.nordicsemi.com/tradeshow-ew2020

@embedded_world
@NordicTweets Sorry, I won't be at #ew20,
but my cool coworkers will be happy to show you all the cool things we prepared!
Starts in 25 minutes!

@Niklas_L
@DreamFlasher No, I guess I was hiding
somewhere ;-)
It's pretty cool to see the thing I made the other day being used all around the
globe today.
Come by the @NordicTweets booth
@embedded_world to learn more about the
cool things you can build with our #nrf9160 DKs!
Really love @s2engineers sentiment: code is colorful, like the people we want in
tech! #diversity
Thanks @kotzendekrabbe for pushing for
this, the way you do!

☀️ and ❄️ What better is there? #trondheim 🇳🇴
If I were in #Berlin I would totally go. https://www.daybreaker.com/city/bln/
TIL while working on resolving / mapping cellular network cells: #china assigns
dynamic, ephemeral ids to mobile network cells.
So not much luck with doing geolocation based on the network there.
@dc7590 Well, it limits the ability for
third-parties to track your device's location, but the main reason is IMHO that
China want's to be able to make money of their data.
Building docker images is the new compiling software.

@NordicTweets The team from

@iotex_io uuhh, this looks like a great hardware
to use for our Bifravst open-source project:
https://bifravst.gitbook.io/bifravst/
Where can I get hold of one?!

@iotex_io Great, looking forward to the try out
the tracker HW. Really like that you put an active antenna on it.
@borderless_dev Nah, you can't compare
Trondheim and Oslo. ;-)
@stephaniecodes. you follow
@pati_gallardo who lives in Oslo, I think
she would love to talk to you! (she e.g. runs
@TechWomenNorway).
You also follow @idaaa,
@troubalex who are both based in Oslo.
I always say, people don't want to own cars, they want what they offer:
individual transportation, mostly in and around cities where they live. This is
where the Ami is perfect:

@kriscorbus I forgot about the Germans :-)
No, you are right. This is not an absolutism, but I'd say for many the
underlying need they solve even with a status symbol is individual freedom to
drive when and where they want.
@datenreisender Issue trackers that allow
to mark an issue as duplicate without requiring the user to provide an issue are
BROKEN.
Looking at you @Jira ...
Me vs. west
#zephyr #embedded
It's green again. Cool story: I need west to run west init then in order to
build a zephyr project, installing the requirements.txt will downgrade west, so
I need to update it again.
@AskAtlassian Thanks! We are using the
on-premise version.
Turns out, I found a bug:

We have fresh snow in #Trondheim 🇳🇴 but the sun is already so warm that it's
melting right away:


It's disgusting to see how the president of USA is lying about the gravity of
#coronavirus and downplaying it this way. His actions these days will get
thousands more killed, for pure vanity reasons. He makes the USA a threat to us
all.
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/28/trump-says-the-coronavirus-is-the-democrats-new-hoax.html
#coronavirus will show what the US stands for these days: protecting the rich.
They will get infected too, but fatality will be much lower compared to other
income brackets. https://twitter.com/AnandWrites/status/1233041575414050817
My equivalent is running compiled #TypeScript but forgetting that I added source
code in a new additional folder, so everything compiled now suddenly is in
subfolders. The old compiled source still exists, but is no longer updated...
