One of my favorite talks I gave in 2019 was this one-off at @TheLeadDev, about motivation.

I am sinister that way!

@nikovirtala I mean, to my mind "Feature Flags" are synonymous with @LaunchDarkly, mostly due to spending too much time watching @wiredferret talks.

In ep. 5 of #Generationship, @rachelchalmers shares interviews from Heavybit's 2023 DevGuild: AI Summit, featuring AI insights from industry experts like Christine Spang (@spang), Heidi Waterhouse (@wiredferret), Paul Biggar (@paulbiggar), and more. → https://t.co/chdh33IhIs

Join @wiredferret's #SAGconf session „Seven Righteous Fights“ now on Stage 3. Heidi explains how addressing these fights early on can help mitigate technical debt and long-term challenges in #softwaredevelopment.

@lizthegrey Jetbrains no longer wanting to be associated with DevTernity or JDKonf. Pulled sponsorship and had their logo removed.

Again, show me another conference that has had advertised fake, non-existent speaker profiles for years.

Why would any brand want association with one.

[steve o'grady @sogrady]

it’s almost like @mikeolson knew what was coming when he proposed this incredibly prescient @monktoberfest talk on the role of the board and specifically their responsibility to hire and fire the CEO.

the only plausible explanation is that he’s a witch.

If you're both lucky + right about the thing you open source being useful to a large group of people, it MIGHT create top of funnel.

Most of the time, IT DOES NOT.

Dev-founders have an implicit, utterly wrong, belief, that users turn into customers.

overcoats look so much better when they reach at least your knees. the only problem with a knee-length coat is that it's cumbersome when you get in and out of cars (hence why pic 1 is called a car coat). but this is all the more reason to walk or take public transport

[emily freeman @editingemily]

OMG no. No.

If you work in DevRel, DO NOT copy your customers’ work.

I’m dealing with something and haven’t gotten into all the details of this situation, but just… no.

The safer a car feels to the operator, the safer the operator feels driving dangerously.

Short🧵from the last 24 hours. This happens daily across the country.

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

I'm currently working on an article about how to dress larger builds, and I interviewed three men whose style I greatly admire. All said: wear high-rise trousers. They are more comfy and flattering. Compare pics 1 and 2 (high rise) to pic 3 (low rise).

if you hide money and gold bars in a tailored jacket, you should get your jackets made with a poacher's pocket, which is a large internal pocket on the lower half of the garment, enforced by a strap that connects to the armhole. hunters used these to hide game from gamekeepers

@gitlab Hearing Paul Kerrison of Dunelm explain Progressive Delivery so well really made my day. A classic enterprise user story. thanks @gitlab for inviting me here.

Customer conversation with Dunelm at the @Gitlab event.

Paul Kerrison: "our engineering work is becoming more experiment driven, we are moving towards Progressive Delivery, the new kid on the block." 👀

Succinct explanation of the principles of cohort mgt, testing in prod 🙌🙌
