How to make the most of small local meetups?

How to make the most of small local meetups?

I’m researching this for a project and would love real-world input. If you’ve built or shipped something here, what did you learn? Context: I’m Harrison Gonzalez and I’m evaluating options for our team.

    Keep dependencies boring and well‑documented. Small anecdote that might help. We cut manual review time by ~30% just by clarifying thresholds.

    Speaking as the person who owned this at a neobank. Tighten feedback loops with weekly reviews. A thin rules layer filtered 80% of noisy alerts.

    Quick checklist that saved us time. Start with a pilot and a single success metric. Keep dependencies boring and well‑documented.

    Push data contracts upstream so APIs don’t drift. Biggest risk is invisible complexity creeping in. Keep the system operable by the smallest competent team.
