Time to run the family like a business organization with a mission statement and business plan (family plan).

Unfortunately, we can't fire our children though for poor performance 🙃

See our family plan and credo. What might yours look like? What is your rallying cry?

@FitFounder LASIK for sure hands down. Did it 15+ years ago, done by Dr. Steven Dell (Michael Dells brother). Freedom, confidence, time savings from clunky glasses and contacts. Still works well today.

@dvassallo Love the domain! Curious did you code up smallbets site yourself? What languages and tech did you used? Frontend/backend, database,etc. Looking to build something “small” myself and seeing what you picked.

49 days seems really short to complete this Austin to North Eastern US RV trip and back. Gotta make it to Acadia! Cut out cities? Longer hours on drive days? Extend the trip? #roadTrip #airstream

You can do anything, but you can’t do everything.

Focus is a super power. Are you a blue belt or black belt with focusing? https://t.co/tgiqHgFreK

@markjenney Something in the RV space again would be fun!!

[Truong-An Thai @bithai]

@markjenney Amazing Mark, love how unique they are, so much fun! How often do you personally visit these properties to either enjoy them or check up on them?

In @DanLinesLB and @Bithai’s #DOES22 talk, we learned that breaking down a pull request problem came down to three things:
Awareness
Context
Automation

Tomorrow at @ITRevDOES we’re excited to have our COO @DanLinesLB & @FloSports VP of Engineering @bithai talk about Completing the Promise of CI/CD with Continuous Merge 🗣️

Pull Requests have become the No. 1 undiagnosed bottleneck in engineering & we have the data to prove it 👇

What many sw engineers don't realize:

The majority of jobs do not hire you to write the highest quality code or produce the cleanest architecture.

They hire you to solve their business problems very efficiently. Sometimes this means high-quality code. Sometimes not at all.

Love the new space to "come together and collaborate." FloSports is moving on up, with a 40,000-square-foot HQ planned across multiple floors of a downtown tower.

@GergelyOrosz I'm already on the $100 promo individual plan. Going to group while logged in just takes me to my account page. Would it be best to cancel (get a refund on the $100) and signup fresh with a group order?

[Truong-An Thai @bithai]

@GergelyOrosz @FlowSportsLive Thanks for sharing it! Btw we are @flosports :)

[Truong-An Thai @bithai]

Recently did a self assessment on our Engineering Culture at FloSports based on the Pragmatic Engineer's 2020 test by @GergelyOrosz. Super quick to go through for Software Engineers or Engineering Managers. No need to write an elaborate post ;)

What do places have in common where developers *like* to work, thrive, and rarely think of leaving or switching?

After talking with dozens of developers, and reflecting on my experience, here is what I found.

@GergelyOrosz Nice post, thank you for sharing. Love seeing a more "modern" version of Joel Spolsky's test. Saw that your post don't have comments enabled. Are there any feedback/comments on this post somewhere on the internet? ;)
