Tools don't solve problems, thinking does
On January 10 I presented my first talk of the year 2017 at the annual kick-off at insurance software vendor ANVA in Amersfoort, the Netherlands. The main topic is building better software faster and covers agile, (beyond) Scrum, Kanban, continuous delivery and microservices. Building Better Software Faster from Sander Hoogendoorn

One of the great things about being a programmer is that you never stop learning. Even after having programmed for almost 35 years, I still improve on the way I write code. About a year ago, the way I write code changed once again when I started to apply monads and especially the Try class. Do. Or do not. There […]

Over the years there’s quite a number of books I have recommended to audiences at keynotes, talks and training courses. Quite often people have asked me for a list of recommended reading. It’s about time that I create this list and put it on my website. So here it is – in an unordered list. Robert C. Martin – Agile […]

For the fifth (or maybe even sixth) year in a row I will do a talk at the TI Conference Days in Antwerp at the Karel de Grote Hogeschool.

Although I was invited to come and do a talk at GeeCon in Krakow, Poland earlier this year, I couldn’t make it – and as a consequence I’m no going to do a talk at GeeCon in Prague. My talk will be around microservices, Kanban and continuous delivery, and maybe some Java code examples too. See more at: http://2016.geecon.cz/
