Most people are too casual with the most important things in life.

If a knowledgeable person doesn’t use their knowledge to build, they may end up using their knowledge to judge and become a cynic.

Often, when two people have underlying disagreements on long-term issues, they manifest their discord through conflicts over short-term matters.

Last January, I noticed something peculiar in my 2yo’s bedroom that - after a year of obsessive reporting - led me to a profound cosmic revelation about what’s even possible in our universe. A 🧵.

WHAT A BRILLIANT THREAD!
MUST READ.

Progress is slower when one focuses more on tone of feedback given versus the substance of feedback.

Being offended with tone of feedback makes the brain reject or ignore the substance.

@JioCare My father's mobile got stolen at 9.20 pm today, trying to block no. via Jio Customer Care, but they say Aadhar no. is incorrect and since you don't have alternative no & and email not registered, wait for Jio Store to open Kept call recording as proof in case its misused

Let’s talk image delivery for #AEMaaCS with focus on #webperf - First: image format 🗜WebP with fallback. Enable it via Image Component policy. My tests have shown that this reduces downloadable size of page+all resources by 40-50% ⚡️

[Cedric Huesler @keepthebyte]

Have been reviewing sites running on #AEMaaCS to see what it takes to get good #webperf & green #CoreWebVitals - over the next few days I will be sharing recommendations that have shown good success. Lets do #1 now 🧵

We need to shift our focus from asserting someones ability to develop to their credibility to deliver and maintain at a reasonable cost and quality.

Got a CV today and the guy literally listed one of his skills as ‘googling’

I’ve reviewed over 750 PR’s at AWS. As my team’s tech lead I provide insightful feedback and enforce a high code quality bar.

But as a jr engineer I couldn’t review code. I didn’t know where to start, what to look for or how to comment.

Here’s how I review PR’s. 🧵 👇

When I was young I found that nothing worked for me on the first try. As I got older I learned...to... accept... that.

@bsesdelhi @bsesdelhi I mentioned already customer care number is not working, is there any other way I can register a complaint.

[Uncle Bob Martin @unclebobmartin]

50 years ago I programmed In assembler, it was great.
40 y/a I switched to C, it was great.
30 y/a I switched to C++, it was great.
20 y/a I switched to Java, it was great.
15 y/a I switched to Ruby, it was great.
10 y/a I switched to Clojure.

I doubt I’ll switch again.

I’ll bet most Java programmers don’t know that there’s a tiny hole in the floating point spec, put there because Intel had a couple of issues with their floating point instructions 25 years ago. It’s been moot for a long time. Goodbye strictfp

I am fairly certain most people cannot have their best ideas if they are in back to back meetings every day. You need time to question things and then research it.

So, if you wonder why it’s hard to make ground breaking products after the first, look at your calendar.

Covid Request : Each one of us should look at one family impacted by Covid that we know and take responsibility for them. A small amount is what people need to keep going. Kids education suffers, medical needs suffer. Just support one family. Imagine a million families supported!
