Logical Failures

Description

Programmers are, by the nature of their work, logicians. However, logic can be more challenging than we sometimes think, and it's easy for us to make logical mistakes, especially when they're to justify a proposition we already believe. This is, at its core, what makes us not very good at testing our own stuff, and what makes architecting a technical system so challenging.

Abstract

In this talk, I will iterate over several logical mistakes that it's easy for us to fall into, and discuss how you can spot those failures when it comes to your life in this wonderful world of "technology".
