  • Exercise improvements: I haven't written any meaningful code since 1991 and I was still able to follow along as the exercises started and then being able to take over when pairing.
  • Instructor comments: Patient. Clear. Good listener. Cares if you're getting it or not. Looks to make sure everyone gets it.
  • Better prepared: Much better
  • Start tomorrow: I probably won't do a lot of it but will be helping were I can and helping to drive its adoption. We're much more prepared to do this now.
  • Challenges to applying: Continuing to do what we've learned in our training. The tendency to fall back on old ways it going to be hard for some to resist.
