Software Architect @Factorial_io, prev @field_so. How we create software today can still be improved. Not afraid of blank canvases. @[email protected]

Having a Design Engineer (aka UX Engineer) on your team is a game changer. Attention to detail, product quality, velocity, all benefit from this hybrid role.

Yet most tech companies overlook the importance of having people that excel at “front-of-the-front-end” work.

GOOD: managers picking up small tasks or stepping in for a sick team member

BAD: managers picking up core components of technical deliverables or the most challenging technical work, causing other people to block on them or miss out on the learning opportunity.

Today, we are releasing a big update to @blokdots that we have been working on for the past months ✨Completely redesigned UI, new website and hundreds of improvements in the app💡

We’d love to hear what you think on Product Hunt!

It should be possible for principal engineers to work outside the OKR systems, and be ahead of execution or be positioned not to be in the direct path of execution. If you are asking principal engineers to own the execution, you are turning them into managers.

In the last 10 years, tech exponentially grew. Being a builder had a ton of friction back in the day but complexity was tiny. It's tiring to work in ever growing complexity and distracted non-stop by hype cycles.

At @oxidecomputer we use RFDs (a collection of AsciiDoc documents, contained in a GitHub repo) to drive architectural and design decisions. We've been working on a site that makes it easier to view and collaborate on these documents

@housecor I hate pre-commit hooks. But there are valid use cases. E.g. checking for secrets (e.g. API Keys) that you never want to become part of a git history upstream.

Wishing everyone a happy, productive, and peaceful 2023. Hope you accomplish everything you set out to at a reasonable pace, stay healthy and sane, and get a chance to dream and plan.

Had a great time deep-diving the Heroku story on @changelog

From the origins (Railsconf, Slicehost, icanhazruby…) to the invention of `git push heroku` to the acquisition by Salesforce and beyond.

@JoeKarlsson1 As a (currently not so active) artist it often helped me to know that this is normal. Especially when I recently did a lot of creative work I’d need to give inspiration time to refill.

Anyway, I wrote all about this stuff and more in a piece last Friday: https://t.co/LGYwXWFhFn
