"Anti patterns in speech portend disaster. We need to translate 'This has never been done before' to, 'We fear the solution doesn’t exist in this room,' and then act so we don’t head down the path towards doomsday." — @jleo3 helps us predict the apocalypse on software projects

"Engineers are also stakeholders. They maintain an asset: code that needs to be managed. They also must support business needs while leaving code in better shape than they found it. That might mean a lot of saying no...nicely" @rachelcdavies confronts the realities of legacy code

"We want to set up an apprenticeship not for what’s best for the employer but for what’s best for the industry. Those aren’t always the same thing" - @paytonrules starts off this year's SCNA by unpacking where traditional education fits.
