#devKL - Knowing Your Biases

#devKL is a biweekly meetup to encourage local software developers to collaborate and learn from each other. We're hoping to build the development community by providing group mentorship, and encouraging members to connect and continue the collaboration between events.

Each session's topic is announced a week ahead of time. If you'd like to present a topic or facilitate a session, please contact Adrian (adrian@syndicatetheory.com).

This Week

We're going to talk about understanding our biases when developing software. The more understanding of how, and more importantly why we tackle problems, the more informed decisions we can make. Let's talk about how to identify these biases, as well as how to broaden our skillset and adapt.
