Morning Lean Coffee (http://leancoffee.org/) to discuss your Lean and Agile ideas, challenges and solutions before the workday starts.
This month we a trialling a slightly earlier start time of 7.45 to allow enough time for every to get away and start work after the call. The Zoom call will be open from 7.30.
Everyone is welcome and we usually have a good mix of people from different backgrounds so if you have something you'd like to talk about, or you just want to listen and learn, then please join us.
Due to the ongoing Covid 19 pandemic, we will be running this as a Zoom event for the foreseeable future. We also use Lean Coffee Table (https://www.leancoffeetable.com/) to simulate a face-to-face meeting.
Of course, there's no substitute for a Sharpie and a Post-it note but we have found Lean Coffee Table comes a very close second.

Talk Title: Hot Takes on Digital Transformation
Abstract: Technology has finally caught up to the way humans like to conduct business. Up until quite recently, technology-based business models were primarily oriented around transactions, but as our technical abilities have matured, especially in the way we move and use data, we are able to enact technology-enabled, relationship-based business models.
However, the relationships facilitated by these technology businesses are not like the relationships underscoring traditional businesses like the ancient pub on the corner by your house. Through the use of technology, these relationships have largely shed the constraint of physical proximity. Information is unleashed, and this also leads to a rapid acceleration in the heartbeat of these relationships. These technology-enabled relationships are unlike any relationships in the history of humanity.
What does this mean? What are our responsibilities as the crafters of this new relationship infrastructure?
The Agile Manifesto encourages us to be mindful of the human creating the software, but what about the human effects of that software? What if it’s time to consider the consequences of “satisfy[ing] customers” and “competitive advantage”?
Bio: Cat has experience applying Agile and lean principles in a variety of settings: from startups to large enterprises, warehouses to web, etc. She is passionate about increasing diversity in tech. In her leisure time, Cat enjoys making jokes about Bitcoin, hiking, and reading feminist literature.

This month we have author, coach, and tester Rob Meaney joining us for a talk on the role of testing and observability in delivering solutions.
Description: Dealing effectively with both the risks we can imagine and the realities we can not.
"A whole team focus on Testability and Operability is fundamental to happy, high-performance teams, a successful business, and satisfied customers."
When I started in the Software Industry 15 years ago we used to physically burn, package and ship releases to our customers on disc. There was an enormous cost to failure – so much so that we spent weeks, and sometimes months, testing before each release. Once the release was finally shipped there was a sense of relief there was nothing more I could do. I lived by the mantra that “no news is good news” when it came to customer feedback.
Today, however, we are faced by an entirely new set of challenges and risks. We find ourselves testing in an increasingly complex world where everything is connected, change is continuous, and failure can be socially and financially catastrophic.
So, how can our teams manage risk effectively when faced with these overwhelming challenges?
For the past five years, I have worked on answering this exact question. In my role as a Quality Coach, I have helped numerous teams not just survive, but thrive in this complex new world.
I will introduce strategies to deal effectively with both the risks we can imagine and the realities we can not. I will explore how deployment is the beginning of our journey, not the end and share the techniques and models I have developed to enable teams to move quickly without compromising quality. Finally, I will argue that we must unlearn our old ideas about testing, development and operation and that a whole-team focus on testability and operability is fundamental to happy, high-performance teams, a successful business and satisfied customers.
Bio: Rob is co-author, with Ash Winter, of the Team Guide to Software Testability. He’s currently Head of Testing at Glofox in Ireland. Rob works with teams to help improve the quality of their software products and processes while also having fun. He loves to help them tackle tough testing and software delivery problems. He’s especially interested in Quality Engineering, Test Coaching, Testability, and Operability.
Rob a frequent speaker at international conferences, facilitates workshops on a range of subjects and is very engaged with the online testing community. He’s the co-founder of the Ministry of Testing: Cork meetup group. His previous positions include Quality Engineering Manager, Test Manager, Automation Architect, and Test Engineer with companies in diverse domains ranging from large multinational corporations to early-stage startups.

***PLEASE SHARE WITH EVERY 10 - 16 YEAR OLD YOU KNOW*** Get your children, nieces, nephews, friends kids etc involved....
Merkle’s STEM ambassadors are delighted to be hosting a data science workshop for the wider data science community aimed at school pupils aged 10-16.
During our interactive session we will cover different roles within data, with a focus on the role of a data scientist/analyst.
We introduce the concept of data and its forms in a fun and engaging way by relating it back to real life examples such as how TikTok, Snapchat and Instagram use customer data.
One of the three examples we discuss is how companies such as Netflix use data to recommend films/programmes based on an individual’s likes.
Our data scientists are passionate about engaging the next generation and hope you can join us for this session.
Please feel free to forward this invitation on to family/friends/clubs that you think may find this interesting.
If you can’t make this session, but this is something that interests you, please feel free to get in touch with us: stemedn@merkleinc.com
NB. Please note that to accommodate all ages and keep engagement, this session will be high level – we will not be going into technical details of algorithms.

Have you ever just wanted to get your application up and running without needing to get lost in K8s deployment YAML? Can you not just take my application and take care of the "wiring", scaling and serve it?
A solution to abstract some of the complexity of deploying workloads to K8s away is based around the Knative project which is the basis for Google's Cloud Run - what is it, how can it help and show me it working!
