Single Metric Bias, the trap of focusing on one metric can be catastrophic.

I got caught in the trap and it led to one of the lowest points of my career. I shouted at one of the most conscientiousness lead engineers in the team, a…https://t.co/cW3E2P8iaG https://t.co/l5YnGgYfls

Not naming where this is from but if you ever need to 'discourage' parents from registering this might be a great way to subtly start.

@peterboroughtel @paulbristow79 @zi87826017 great work PT!. Love the transparent reply from @ShaileshVara too!

Interesting correlation with Total Plant (not suggesting causation) any public record of @paulbristow79 supporting their bid? - were competing bidders aware of this donation during tender? when was the donation?

[Alex Shaw @axshaw]

Loving the Westminster account explorer - interesting to see donations to @paulbristow79 in the top 26% of MPs - including £10k+ from @zi87826017 and Total Plant - worth finding out why @peterboroughtel ?

Go take a look at your local MP - https://t.co/xdz3FsJQ2T

@johncutlefish 'blast radius' which loosely refers to the impact on customers and client ability to achieve their goal. Wider impact has a bigger effect on levels of service the widest being total loss of service.

Allows the team to consider this when building, hopefully encourages decoupling

[Alex Shaw @axshaw]

@boyney123 We've put 3 of the team into https://t.co/8A6ppEGnud had great reviews. discord (might be slack) community I think where Kent responds

Community learning after the course and building is a strong model. Especially if it's around a specific domain
