Tonight was the latest Coding Dojo. We were picking up the mantle from the previous time. This evening was peculiarly intense, thanks to Piers dropping in.
Despite not completing the task (as per usual!), I learned an enourmous amount from the interaction this evening. It felt really humbling to be amongst people who knew so clearly what they were trying to achieve. Chatting to Piers afterwards made me realise how I tend to be very focussed on solving the problem at hand rather than stepping back and trying to create something beautiful. I need to go back and read TDD and Refactoring…
On another note, I’m really looking forward to the festival dojo. It’s the 10th of May. Come and join us.
