Programming != Software Development

As a software developer, you may be called upon to perform some of these tasks in your career.

How well a CS degree prepares you for these tasks (and whether it even should prepare you for these) is left as an exercise to the reader.

How hot is the market for software engineers? Hotter than I've ever seen. Here's proof.

Dozens of companies have taken an extreme measure: increasing compensation out-of-cycle, during the year, because they see *so* much attrition.

Data on this (thanks for everyone sharing 🙌)

Job interview: “algorithms”

@pyladiesmunich When? 🤩

[Sanne van Wagensveld @Susa88]

@ministryoftest Easy. It's not done without automated tests.

[Sanne van Wagensveld @Susa88]

@pyladiesmunich Awww you're the best! Thank you!

@59SecondsAgile There's nothing in the Scrum Guide about a board. If the Scrum team chooses to visualize their sprint backlog with a Kanban board, that's totally fine. Scrum and Kanban don't compete, they complement each other.

@Tweet_Cassandra And Google got rid of GoogleMusic. 😭

When I worked at IBM, there was a man who would work just until he earned enough money to do whatever he wanted to do next (e.g. backpacking across Europe for a month, etc) then he'd go on an unpaid LOA until he ran out of money.

I think about him often.

I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.

As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵

I've spoken to 1,500+ people about remote work in the last 6 months

In that time we've raised $15M to build Firstbase

@ofinker And women who do not suffer from imposter syndrome but are confident in their abilities are often seen as arrogant because of counter-stereotypical behavior. Can't win.

Omg this is such a simple and good explanation on why "trickle down economics" is absolute bullshit.
