Hiring rockstar developer!
Must
- work as hard as CEO for 0 equity
- have side projects + green squares
- use dark mode
- 10+ years exp (but don't be old)
- willing to work for less $
- put passion into every LOC and feel like it isn’t a “job”
- product vision, but don't disagree

Not sure I can relate to why so many are worried that more remote work means being less “friends with your team” and “lost social time”. We don’t work together to become friends, it’s great when it happens and I’ve had no trouble having good relationships with remote folks

What does each C-level do?

CEO: makes a decision
COO: ensure the decision happens
CFO: budgetizes the decision
CMO: communicates the decision
CIO: builds a strategy for the decision
CSO: secures the decision
CDO: provides data for the decision
CTO: supervises the execution.

Nothing drives me crazy more on @Windows then when Windows Hello fails for some good reason and I want it to just try again, but to do this I have to click the other sign-in options button first.

@ThickBrain What is the chance you would be willing to release your Twitter screen name and allow it to be used? The company I have just started is actually named Thick Brain and was hoping to use the Twitter handle. Just hoping for a favor since I didn't see any recent activity.

But Santa pls

[Rendle Has Left The Dumpster Fire @markrendle]

I'm 47 today. I've been coding since I was 8, professionally since I was 16. You'd think I'd know better than to use strings for complex data. And yet...

[Well Paid Geek 🚀💻 JavaScript @WellPaidGeek]

I have 18k followers, most of whom want to learn to code, yet when I ask,

“What’s your current personal project”

I get very few responses.

You. Must. Build. An. Actual. Project.

@kannanrajavijay Just shot you over an email at your Hotmail account, and wondering if you'd have 30 minutes or less to talk about an SSRS thing from an article you wrote?

[Cory House @housecor]

As a consultant, I'm seeing an epidemic: Companies are wasting millions by giving developers slow laptops.

Today I said "npm install x".

My laptop: 10 seconds. 😀
Their laptop: 3+ minutes. 🤯🤦‍♂️

Why? Weak processors, little RAM, platter drives, and slow security scanners.

Junior dev: My code is simple and easy to understand.

Mid-level dev: My code is subtle, clever, innovative, expressive, hyper-optimized, and ingenious.

Senior dev: My code is simple and easy to understand.

My husband just went to the grocery store to buy apples. Me, I’m waiting at home on the couch, so I can say “how do ya like them apples?” when he walks in the door.

[Jeffrey Snover @jsnover]

I hate when I connect with someone on LinkedIn and then a minute later, get a DM like this:
Ugh!

[Dmitry Lyalin @LyalinDotCom]

One of my best meetings today was getting in a room with two other PMs from a partner team and just asking two questions around the table.

1. What worries you.
2. How are you feeling overall about the project.

Highly recommend this type of checkin!

Happy Friday folks. 🥳

@Twitter Why would you suggest I follow @BarackObama? This seems scammy as there is no AI in the world that would ever make a connection between his content and my interests.
