A short rant today: Why I don't like status update style standups: https://t.co/NgVprArOn4

[steve @meadsteve]

@flint_writes awww look at their little angry faces

[steve @meadsteve]

@david_whitney I think if places don't have robust deploy pipelines then "revert your changes" can be a daunting task. There's also the fear of corrupting some data which is non trivial to revert

[steve @meadsteve]

@louispilfold In my experience automated testing of backends in jatypescript teams is not a common practice

[steve @meadsteve]

@EnforcerPL @ShahriyarRzayev Thanks @EnforcerPL the "non invasiveness" was one of my primary design goals so it's nice to hear it's appreciated.

A brilliant honest article about changing your mind on HS2.

Some change their minds when they discover the benefits instead of just hearing the costs.

Some change their minds when they realise how much is already built. https://t.co/WC9gRymd1V

@david_whitney I used to do meeting defrag but you don't have enough free diskspace 🤣

[steve @meadsteve]

@miss_jwo For me: dried seaweed because I can dump it in anything liquid and pickles because you can serve almost any meal with a side of pickled veg. Both last well so reduced the need for planning

[steve @meadsteve]

@JaxSayers @ask_aubry One would assume so. It's also the reverse for a man. So you can tell real men concave inwards until they disappear entirely.

@david_whitney “If you want to work together better,
Have you considered: literally working together??”

[steve @meadsteve]

@MattJamesBoyle Yeah. Personally I have a mostly generic CV and then some combination of tweaking it for a role and/or adding a cover

[steve @meadsteve]

@MattJamesBoyle Reasoning: https://t.co/IGO3Y38VnM

[steve @meadsteve]

@MattJamesBoyle It wouldn't be a deal breaker but 100% remote is a negative. I like meeting in real life at least once a week. 100% office is a deal breaker though

[steve @meadsteve]

@henrikwarne For example: Thing X is unmaintained but will accept bug fixes for large security issues

[steve @meadsteve]

@henrikwarne Yeah I definitely agree it's less useful for products. And it's definitely not a hard line (as you mention). For example if functional programming becomes big in a language is adding a functional interface to a library maintenance? I think I mostly use the opposite, unmaintained.

[steve @meadsteve]

@rickasaurus @vboykis @t0yv0 This only works short term. After the rest they get stronger and more resistent. Before you know it you're having to get up early to take them to triathlons

[steve @meadsteve]

@henrikwarne I like being able to talk about maintenance as a discrete activity because if we don't invest effort in the maintenance the code will rot

[steve @meadsteve]

@henrikwarne (which i think is similar to what you mention further down in your post)

[steve @meadsteve]

@henrikwarne In the first two I would say the software is being maintained. In the last I wouldn't. In the first I would say it's undergoing feature development as well as being maintained
