Description: Jonas Boner asked me to write an abstract for this talk. We were talking about some of the things I'd learned while building resilient systems. I mentioned a few simple things I knew - he said "Tell them these things, stories from real-life experience are always fun" I sat on the underground, with my notepad out and started scribbling. The planned title of the talk was 7 things I'd learned about programming. But by the time I got to Kista I had a list of 32 things. By the time I've written the talk it might be more than 32. So I'll talk about the K things that I've learned where K >= 32 About the speaker This person is speaking at this event.
