Since time immemorial, when a CEO asks a PM at Product Review, “what do you need to 10X users/revenue?”, “what will make you go faster?”, etc

The PM steadfastly responds “We need [N] more engineers”. The Eng Mgr nods approvingly

A story thread, with some hard truths to swallow:

@johnny_reilly Wow, epic Land Rover 😜

[DevOps on Azure @AzureDevOps]

Say you want to combine the documentation of all your projects into one project so whenever one of your projects is built, it also triggers a new build of the docs.

Check out this @ThePracticalDev article for an interesting walkthrough. 📖 https://t.co/yplCA5UgpH

I write a lot of TypeScript console / CLI apps using Node.js. I wanted to have a play with Bun, here's what happened (TL;DR things got faster!)

I like that “predictable” includes observability; @tastapod mentioned @mipsytipsy and building-in the figuring-out.

😢 R.I.P.

Fred Brooks was the author of "The Mythical Man Month" a book that was hugely influential on so many of us. Also his paper "No Silver Bullet" would be on most people's shortlist of most influential papers.

@johnny_reilly @_stevefenton Likewise have asked @johnny_reilly, but I roll with less street cred than you 😉

@johnny_reilly @AzContainerApp @daprdev @BicepLang @Docker @code Wow John, this is epically non trivial. I think you've pushed the execution of container apps before even MS have defined some solid prod boundaries. Lovely work ♥️

[zack @zack_overflow]

Got tired of tsc taking forever to type check my code so I made a Typescript type checker in Rust for fun

For a small Typescript file it's 500x faster than tsc taking ~0.002s vs ~1.3s (using SWC for compilation). It supports only a small subset of Typescript (for now).

If you're looking to understand how to build something with @daprdev then @jeffhollan's repo is a public good. Been slowly building my first dapr thing by unpicking how it's been achieved here:

I had some fun building a package manager for #Kubernetes that uses OCI artifacts to distribute app configs. Check it out https://t.co/WtgAu4hOU3

I keep being surprised why people like jest for testing Node.js app. It’s almost a complete different environment from Node.js, how could they be certain they are actually testing for real.

In several repos now I need to specifically test my modules work with jest. Sigh.

Team Topologies In Action with @matthewpskelton

Matthew talks about the principles before Paul Ingles, John Kilmister, Richard Allen and Ivan Krnic describe how they used insights from the book to achieve their goals.
