Replace testing with designing, and this hits close.

It's not healthy to compare yourself to others... 🧵

Today Tim Keller entered the reward of his Master. In this special episode of Ask Pastor John, Tony Reinke shares a sermon clip from Dr. Keller on the joy of God in the face of cancer. https://t.co/EZxdguJAPY

@QueenTester Mine was assuming a front-end was (still?) using the right back-end service. Sometimes it was, sometimes it wasn't.

[Andy Hird @andy_hird]

Sometimes, you just have to back up and double check.

For those who I've worked with or been part of your professional career world, I am looking for work as of today. Experience w/ Quality Assurance, writing, podcast production, and a speaker in the software testing space. If given a choice, I would love to focus on #A11y

I just released testing secret #1, as a lightning talk, over youtube. https://t.co/yR33OlR21N Just came up with it spontaneously yesterday, would appreciate any feedback. It's a little ... spicy, I think.

@ministryoftest Every time I find a bug, I shout "You can't hide from me, foul vermin!"

@ministryoftest Get enough sleep at night.

@parwalrahul Move on. It's possible there was just a gap in communication. Other questions may be more useful. Ask questions about what they did. If they can't answer clearly, maybe then draw the interview to a close. But don't get hung up on terminology.

@keithklain What I have seen of autocorrect, I would say most of it would be unintelligible.

[Andy Hird @andy_hird]

Just imagine how messed up the study of history would be if ancient documents had been subjected to 'auto-correct'.

[Andy Hird @andy_hird]

@QueenTester I'm so glad you look back fondly on those roots. But my how you've grown. (pardon the pun)
