Explore the intricacies of software engineering flow and its underlying principles in this thought-provoking conference talk from YOW! Australia 2023. Delve into the world of Information Theory and Complexity Science to understand the domain model of transforming ideas into functional software. Examine the evolution of programming over the past decade, the impact of LLMs on development, and the optimization of systems for improved flow. Investigate the concept of work flowing as information through value streams, and learn about the Gini coefficient's relevance to software development. Discover how generative science can be applied to model the world of work, ultimately gaining insights into the mechanics of flow in software engineering. Gain valuable perspectives on team structures, microservices, and key metrics that contribute to enhancing the delivery of value to users.
