Following the advice from our beloved judges, tried to get in touch with busy other teams’ members. Come in their bobles and had interesting discussions as well

Managed acctullay to help team @bouvet with IoT authentications stuff. I think it helped and they started to investigate more 🙂

Helped @steria2 with data factory. It was just a coincidence that we passed by there 🙂

Learned as well some stuff about Human Resources in Dynamics from @axdata. There are so few people that know about that stuff in Norway.

All teams, please come over to ask us about anything. @pointtaken, @steria2, @skill, @skill2, @steria, @axdata, @axdata, @ninjas.

Tips from an ACDC veteran!

Hello everyone! It has been a very interesting event this year, we got a new room, new participants and a lot of new challenges and ideas.

We were impressed with the sustainability challenge that we got yesterday and wanted to contribute a little bit with some ideas around it.

Some of us have been in this event many times and learned some tips that might suit everyone and in addition contribute a little bit with some of the the Principles of Sustainable Software Engineering.

Try not to go to bed so late, it’s not good for your mind and body to work under stress, you are less productive and creative. Try instead waking up early after a good sleep and you will think clearly and ideas will just start flowing.

Remember of course to shutdown your Azure services during the night and start them again during the day (Take a look at https://aka.ms/learn-green) to learn more about what we mean.

Happy coding!

Skill bombshell heier på Skill powershells

Å ha et motiv betyr å ha en grunn til å gjøre noe. At handlingene våre i en bestemt situasjon er motivert av et eller annet, vil si at vi sikter mot å nå bestemte mål. Det er vanlig å skille mellom indre og ytre motivasjon. Drivkraften ved indre motivasjon er dine egne interesser og nysgjerrighet. Vi støtter de rundt oss med positive ord, men siden vi må fokusere også på egen motivasjon samt at vi er i forskjellige cohorter så har vi valgt å automatisert dette.

En gang i døgnet sender vi en SMS til teamleder av Skill powershells. Dette for å motivere.

Ved behov så kan vi øke frekvensen ytterliger, noe som er nærliggende mot innspurten. Ved behov kan vi også motivere andre lag.

Community Champion

Sharing what we are going to create and the event on social media. We have also been around helping other teams and sharing our knowledge. As well as talking ideas with other community champions (aka the one and only CRMkeeper)!

We been out and playing “santa” for Skill Bombshells, they borrowed IoT devices to achieve even more awesomeness with their product!!

Collaborate and Share Knowledge!

Point Taken og AITC deler kunnskap og erfaringer.

Både Point Taken og AITC benytter IoT enheter som Raspberry PI og knytter disse mot Lego sine motorer som primært går på Bluetooth. Sammen har vi diskutert og delt erfaring knyttet til å det koble seg til disse motorene fra Lego. Vi har også vært dypt i praten om hvordan vi skal unngå at disse Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) ikke skal skru seg av mellom omgangene vi kjører scriptene våre.

Vi diskuterte ogsÃ¥ hvilke teknologier de har benyttet i forkant av dette, hvorfor de brukte Python fremfor Node.js. Her har begge partene hadde en “lang” vei i forkant, og det Ã¥ dele disse erfaringene har vært svært kunnskapsrikt.
