How not to slice stories:
1) This is a 10-step process, so we'll do step 1 first...
2) Let's do all the UI work, then database work, then backend, then...
3) This is chopped up into Tom's part, Singh's part, Connie's part, and Ronnga's part.

I worked at GitHub for 3 years.

Not even GitHub, the company, checks GitHub contributions to consider a candidate for a job position.

It may be hard to believe, but most people simply don't know how to break work down for delivery.

They only break it down for development, so it can be assigned to different people.

This is the root of much dysfunction.

In Vienna, 80% of residents rent, and virtually every rental has some form of rent control. As a result residents rent for life and often pay as little as 8% of their income on rent (compared to over 30% for renters in Oz). 60% live in social housing.

@techgirl1908 talking about how it was 12 years into her career before she worked with another Black woman.

@lidingshan Eh. There's two types of MVP. Some would call yours a MVPe. There's an alternative name for the scope one too but I can remember it right now

@DrFionaMartin Glad you're still contributing to national efforts for the health of our children.

Wow. I got my first #ChatGPT-written paper for an undergrad assignment on positionality. This line was the tell: “I do not have a personal history, identity, or culture in the traditional sense because I am an artificial intelligence language model.” Ooof!

@lidingshan I've seen attempts at it with Lego. I think it does need to be hands on even if it means teaching some coding. Scratch?

[Mike Li @lidingshan]

How to teach TDD to none tech people? Should it be just about concept? Or would it be better to engage them with any hands-on experience? #agile #tdd
