**November Full Stack User Group with Microsoft MVP Gordon Beeming "Fail Fast, Ship Faster: Learning to Orchestrate Instead of Implement"**

Fail fast and often - that's DevOps wisdom, right? I've never failed more productively than in 2025.

This talk walks through a year of shipping real projects by learning to orchestrate instead of implement: natural conversations that become documentation, virtual specialist teams handling complex work, refactoring lessons learned the hard way, and git investigations that run while you make coffee.

You'll see the productivity experiments, the spectacular failures that taught me what NOT to do, and the security patterns that make it production-ready.

**Agenda (AEST):**

6pm - 🍕 Pizza & Networking
6:30pm - Tech News with Adam and Eve Cogan (live from SSW Sydney).
Then **"Fail Fast, Ship Faster: Learning to Orchestrate Instead of Implement" with Gordon Beeming live from SSW Brisbane!**
