Over the last week @makingstuffnz, we broke the mould of our dev process. We ran an experiment, somewhere between a Design Sprint and a hackathon. We had customers in the room, we sketched some wireframes and built two prototypes. (1/2)

You are never too senior to write code. I only laugh at people who believe they are too good to write any code as a software engineer.

2020 wouldn't be 2020 without a massive Google outage.

I hereby declare Kelsey’s prediction for TRUE! 😄 After many cold years in the valley of needlessly distributed complexity, I’ve sensed not only a newfound appreciation for backend monoliths, but also ones that extend to the frontend (i.e server-side rendering). Hallelujah ✌️❤️

@mexisme Enter k3s and its future offsprings..

Another important quality is humbleness. Not just towards others, but towards yourself. Admitting to yourself that you may be wrong or don’t understand something is uncomfortable. But that’s where curiosity and learning comes from.

@sanityinc Pioneers, settlers, town planners. You need them all. You can't build a town with pioneers and you can't explore the frontiers with town planners.

@mexisme I spent a week in hell because of this.
We ended up hijacking a temp prod env, meant for a blue/green deploy, to do the testing, and eventually figuring out that newrelic, which we don’t have on staging, was dropping request headers

It took us 255 years to go from Galilean transformations for falling bodies to Lorentz transformations that are in accordance with Einstein's special relativity.

@JohnAqel I also totally relate to this. And it even works in a pairing/mobbing situation where multiple brains fail to see a simple solution at the end of the day.

How do airplanes fly?

The popular explanation for lift is based on Bernoulli's principle. This explanation fails to explain inverted flight or flat wings. So how do planes really fly?

When we look back on 2019, will it be seen as year when awareness of scale of #climatechange kicked in? There's 1 devastating report & event after another. The very real prospect is that #Amazon forest is close to a tipping point is 1 of many wakeup calls: https://t.co/s5eMYPjlHp
