@ryanflorence I agree in spirit, but not at the expense of breaking the most fundamental features of your user experience (and not immediately rolling back).
I can’t see replies to this tweet because of the same bug. Twitter catastrophically breaking their own user experience to defend against “bad actor” bogeymen feels like peak Elon rn.
@aarondfrancis So the toxicity isn’t necessarily a quality of the dev who’s hustling, but rather whether or not it gets held up as a No True Scotsman qualifier.
@aarondfrancis My career and hobby happen to be the same thing—how fortunate! I think the “toxicity” vibe may come into play when devs judge a teammate/interviewee based on how hard they grind after hours. I’ve seen that time after time after time.
@TaylorCashdan What that “scaling” looks like in practice is SO DIFFERENT than I anticipated. Primarily relentless advocacy, framing what we offer through a user-centered lens—where the users are our colleagues—and lots of meetings. 🫠
@ryanrumsey @ThisIsBobBaxley @figma We’re on the org plan and it’s the exact same problem. Have to pay $75/editor/month for the enterprise plan for the convenience of avoiding this dark(est) pattern.
@TheSharpeEnd Two incredibly obvious offside calls in the same build up, and neither the linesman nor VAR could be bothered. The FA should be embarrassed.
@laurenloprete Was literally looking for something similar today. This one looks simple and promising but I haven’t investigated yet: https://t.co/WXkSwIxnF9
