@donnfelker @ZakTaccardi I 100% agree with you here but I think there is a key line in this guidance that the maintainer of the implementation should provide the fake and otherwise use a mock. I can get behind this. Well written first party test fakes supplied as part of a library are awesome!

@HandstandSam I am looking forward seeing a one handed handstand pic in front of this!

My daughter asked for a Cartman cake for her b-day. I said it should be easy thinking @funkstitch could do it. She called my bluff and said "Dad just volunteered to bake your cake this year!" Nailed it!

@devmisterio Pair programming. Turning the task into collaboration and ping-pong pairing hits the gamification and small win aspects and eliminates the urge to check messages and other distractions.

@_chuckyc In case it helps. When I was trying to get into speaking at conferences I started with internal presentations, local, and regional meetups. Got some experience without needing much travel budget

Big breaking news for Android developers!

Intel has announced that they will be retiring the HAXM project, which is a widely used hypervisor for accelerating the Android Emulator and QEMU. 🧵

Going back to work after the holidays and I am starting with a good cleaning my home office. Where did all this junk and dishes and mail and paperwork come from?

@farkerhaiku With enough experience you can become a principle archaeologist. 😂

@vinaygaba A nice backpack

@billjings @zorbadgreek @GergelyOrosz Yes, and the planning cycle is also a culprit. If planning points a team all towards a single goal and project then pairing is an effective way to deliver on that goal. When individuals each have their own projects taking time to pair can impact those projects.

I am so proud of my Jack o Lantern this year!

@farkerhaiku Had a team where every time a bug was found by QA we all did 10 pushups. Everyone was getting fit!

Today is Silver Dollar City. The contrast of theme park and stunning fall views of the ozarks is pretty awesome!

Taking a road trip to Branson, MO this weekend following this itenerary. First stop is the Kolache Factory! https://t.co/S6W0S9k6Xt

5 stop was a short tour of Smallin Cave

@tymathews It was great. We had 4 different types. My favorite was the sausage gravy Kolache.
