I’m at Stanford and I research software engineering productivity.

We have data on the performance of >50k engineers from 100s of companies.

Inspired by @deedydas, our research shows:

~9.5% of software engineers do virtually nothing: Ghost Engineers (0.1x-ers)

'Move fast and break things' doesn't mean 'Move fast and make things broken.' Speed matters in startups, but so does craftsmanship - in UI, in User Support, and in Code too!

We recently released an better way to add rows and columns in @Whimsical Docs tables. On surface it may appear like a simple feature, but it took a lot of tinkering to get it to the level of quality we felt good about. Here's an inside look at the process → 🧵

I will never have a single point of failure in my infrastructure #Repeat100Times

[Cindy Sridharan @copyconstruct]

The last time @Cloudflare had an incident like this, it was due to the rollout of a new regex engine with bugs that only surfaced in very specific scenarios.

Will be interesting to read if this is a black swan incident, or something more mundane.

[Gaurav Thapa @gaurav_]

@kodocard users were affected for a while but we have done a failover to a different DNS service; Card transactions as well as Kodo App are stable now

there's no "the best product person" ever, whether scaling or not

[pj @BeingPractical]

The problem begins when the startup starts scaling up, puts up a team in place but the founder continues to think & act as if he or she is the best product person the startup can ever have.
