@JamesSampica @tottinge @davefarley77 Hmm. What would a good team incentive look like?

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@NitsanAvni Monday morning stress here, what about you?

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

Even simple tasks become chaotic with enough time pressure/stress. #cynefin

@_asa Du har inte funderat på (teknisk) coaching? Du verkar ha mycket kunskap att dela med dig av 🌱

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@ericnormand Thanks! Me and @Neppord argued the types are part of the "meta language" which is processed before runtime, hence neither of the categories C,A,D apply. #pragma is "similarly meta" being literally part of preprocessing. 🌱

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@ericnormand Hey! Love Grokking Simplicity and the philosophical division of code as Data, Actions or Calculations. However, I struggle to understand where to put type declarations. Where would you put say type User = { name: string, age: int } in typescript?

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@edytterbrink unit tests are a playground for code! ❤️🎶🎉
Love this sentiment!

While I appreciate the idea of this already, I would like the formulation "Would Matt approve?" to feel less judgemental, or pushy. Any ideas? 😃 4/4

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

Considering the lifestyle motto "Would Matt approve?". 1/n

Reference - YouTube video "Where the hell is Matt? (2006)", a video I have to re-watch every year or so to find meaning. https://t.co/ntL5akeApw

@_asa You have been warned 😉

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@Neppord ❤️. It's an ok framework, especially from v5. For being a framework, and C++

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@_asa En liten varning kring Elm. Du kommer inte vilja använda något annat för webben efteråt! ❤️😁

TIL: Control+Shift+L autofills a login page with bitwarden plugin installed in browser ❤️

@paulmaxwelldev @ramtop @KentBeck @davefarley77 Pair- or ensemble development is one way. You still need lots of automation though, a good build pipeline.

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

@EMO_AI_Robot Please make this happen! 😃😍🌈❤️

... which ties back to how to build skill with something: making practice fun. Now *that* is the real skill, imho. How do you make practice fun? 7/7

My friend and colleague @Neppord once said he wants to spend time just coding by himself, when he's not coaching devteams (or preparing for such sessions, which often includes coding). 1/n

[Olof Bjarnason @olofb]

The reporter kept asking about what made it possible to be that skilled at such a young age and seemed to have a bias towards the answer "it's a gift". The young skier talked about how much practice played a role. 6/n
