Guilherme "Gui" Ferreira is a Minimalist Software Craftsman, passionate about simplicity and continuous learning. 
He is a Microsoft MVP, Tech Speaker, YouTuber, Dometrain Author, and .NET content creator.

I've been working professionally with C# and .NET since 2007, and become quite good at it. I like Azure, SQL server, Minimal APIs and the challenge of keeping it simple. Since 2025 I've let AI do the coding. It's a wild ride and I would like to share it!

Mats comes from 15+ years in software development, product and technology leadership, including serving as CPO at Klaveness Digital. These days he spends most of his time building products and solutions with coding agents.

He cares about the practical side: what actually works when you let agents loose on real problems, and how to stay adaptive when the landscape keeps shifting.

Mats is a consultant and partner at Oschlo

Stian is a Product Engineer at Tana, where he builds tools for how engineering teams think, organize, and work with AI. With 7,500+ Claude Code sessions logged and a stack of homemade developer tools, he spends as much time using the AI tooling stack as building for it. He also runs hands-on AI workshops for engineering teams — most recently 321 and Vitec Megler — which double as direct field research into how developers actually adopt AI tools. His PhD in Learning Sciences (University of Toronto) and postdoc at EPFL keep showing up in unexpectedly practical ways.https://x.com/jonhoo

Yngve Bakken-Nilsen is a senior software developer and consultant with over 20 years of experience, currently working with Norsk Rikstoto. He works mainly with Angular and .NET in large, long-lived systems, with a focus on architecture, developer experience, and keeping complexity under control.
Lately, he’s been building a SaaS product where most of the code is written with AI. That experience has shifted his attention away from writing code, and toward something else: figuring out where things start to go wrong when it becomes too easy to build.
