Credit to @BrandSanderson and the @DragonsteelBook team. I’m having a great experience listening on @Spotify and reading on my kindle sans the kindle store. Oh, and Triss is a delight as well! 🤩

@edenchen @steverockan @Flayra @Sirlin @biiigfoot Glad to help. Elo isn’t typically used in most systems these days, but the principles are similar. Things have evolved to include more advanced factors, and there are key game design choices to make as well. I’ll ask Eden to connect us 👍

It’s pretty simple: Google Meet (original) was previously Meet, which was the rebranded Hangouts Meet. Meet has been merged with Google Duo, which replaced Google Hangouts. Google Duo has been renamed Meet, and Meet has been temporarily named Google Meet (original), for clarity

Let's gooooo!

@GeePawHill @alexbunardzic Duplicate coupling to code structure in test will create a huge mess and make change hard. The coupling is inherent, just make sure to kill duplication and ‘encapsulate that’. /End

[Chris Cobb @cccobbb]

@GeePawHill @alexbunardzic My current take is to start Chicago, more integration-y early. Once the structure matures, mocking at each boundary significantly reduces fixture size and inproves maintainability. Both approaches couple to code structure to different degrees at different lifecycles. /10
