Favorite thing about dev: - Being able to physically control machines with SW - Fast feedback - I love challenges/learning

Least favorite thing about dev: - When debugging takes too long - When there is too much code to wrap my head around

Tdd knowledge: - write a test first before design - test first mentality leads to good designs

Why are you attending: - I have heard good things and want it in my tool kit. - I want to be a better programmer
