@johncutlefish Maintenance has connotations of staying in place. Investment has connotations of moving forward. Software maintenance is often moving sideways to the new stable niche. 🤷♂️
@sydwardrae Open-backed headphones are phenomenal for this. Much less pressure on your eardrums.

They don't block sound, so only appropriate if your environment is quiet-ish.
@cyetain I see an uptick in folks confusing lean and agile on the back of "Lean Product Development".
Teasing apart the problems each is trying to solve has helped in some recent convos.

Once ya have the Skill, v likely the Intent may shift as perspective deepens/broadens. Material then needs a pass.

@HiredThought I often refer to it as "selling", but it's story telling.

Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me):
CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff.
A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies.
I know you didn't get that notice.
