Good questions protect the room

Our software craftsmanship group encourages new speakers to come and practise their talks.

One is coming up in August. At the start of every meetup we read aloud the code of conduct.

It can feel formal, but the repetition is the point. It sets the culture and reminds us who we want to be.

A question can be good and still land badly. The timing and the room decide.
