How do you change the way architecture and design are done in your organisation?
End of last year, together with @roundcrisis.com and @andrewhl.bsky.social, we started a series called "Stories of Facilitating Software Architecture & Design." The idea is simple: let people share their stories.

I wonder... would there be any interest in some F# event / (un)conference in 2026?
I always wanted to do something similar to F# Creators Workshop (which @dsyme.bsky.social organised years ago in Cambridge) or Elm Camp (which has been for last couple of years)

Example Driven Documentation · Purple Kingdom Games
Providing documentation for open source projects is a necessary support activity for any library author, but it comes with a heavy maintenance cost, particularly for large projects.

I know there are a few companies I'm helping, Do you know some list or some companies that are good current use cases?

Next Tuesday, we will have a new Story of Facilitating Software Architecture & Design. Until then, you can check out our latest story on Governance, where @roundcrisis.com shares her story. Find us on YouTube, every major podcast platform and our own website as a blog post: buff.ly/kixklbb

Write code to make being human easier. Rip code out if it makes being human harder. Write code to make caring for each other easier. Rip it out if it makes caring for each other harder.

Our 5th episode was @roundcrisis.com sharing a story on governance and decisions being reversed by management, which can lead to burnout and distrust....
An incident decision is reverted, causing team frustration. Our new story explores the socio-technical fallout of post-incident governance and how to build trust through clearer processes and supportive leadership.

You want teams to take architectural decisions by facilitating but you are struck with silence or indecision. That was the story @roundcrisis.com and @andrewhl.bsky.social talked about in our latest Story on Facilitating Software Architecture & Design.
