found this gold nugget on API versioning by Stripe stripe.com/blog/api-ver.... Traditionally, you'd have multiple controller methods. Instead this uses a DSL to do mapping for downgrading/upgrading from a base schema.

I like this new lint rule 👏

Don't rethrow JS errors without a cause!

Another good question is "do both parties have different goals or expectations?" Slightly different from the "incentive" agenda. IME it's usually the case.

If Hamas love their people, they should surrender and let the people elect a better government to lead them to a more peaceful establishment of their people

who would win the discus throw, Java or C#?

Thoughts: a different way to communicate with my team...

Instead of "here are our goals, what's your plan?"
- to -
"How would you go if we want to achieve this goal?"

1. gives focus
2. perhaps stops me from giving my solution 🤷‍♂️

I'm advocating SP as discussion pt not measurement of time. SP or 1 pt stories to count number of work in a sprint is just wrong. Aim for goals and outcome and work towards that in the sprint.

the scale of Fibonacci gives a way to describe the amount of unknowns/complexity in a scope.

Sure u could break things down to "1" pt. but you'd still need a few 1 pter to get a good outcome?

Just don't have pts to count amount of work. Use hill chart and continuous huddles to keep in datelline

🌶️ take: microservices can use the same DB. Ignore 1 DB per service rule

With these constraints:
1. limited by one writer/owner and everyone read-only.
2. Backwards compatible and versioned schema just like a public http API.

Reason why SP is Fibonacci. Should have never been a measurement of time to complete!

SP are great talking points.

Poker planning will highlight gaps and divergence in direction.

In standup/huddles it provides gauge of criticality + focus. If high pts and still WIP in N days pushes teams to swarm on (not practicing mobbing).

@lennysan.bsky.social Lenny's podcast is gold. I'm not a PM but I still get so much value from it. For Devs @robbyonrails.com Maintainable Podcast would be the equivalent. Does anyone have any suggestions for Dev podcasts in the same style and quality?

How do ppl do pair programming with AI?

Good advice. Works for me. I type out my doc/report/msg and then read it the following day before I send it off. I always miss something

I think you need more drinks. Takes are not spicy enough. Just a bunch of just undeniable truths! 🥃🥃🥃🥃

thanks!

How coincidental! Just started listening and saw this message. I 💯 concur! Listened to Jobs-to-be-done and now pca.st/episode/fc8f....

What do you recommend for a must-hear?

IME Companies do Pull Requests because teams are lacking confidence and trust in each other and their code.

If ease to fix and pivot is high, people are forced to get it right the first time round. PR provides you that safety blanket 👶🧸👨‍🍼!

The biggest skill to practice as a Dev is curiosity.

Coding DRY shouldn't be taken as gospel. It's ok to copy-pasta. Repeat if you have deliberate reasons (eg. forecasting code will soon diverge). Do DRY if you're aimlessly replicating.

New blog: I’ll admit, this one’s a bit of a ramble, mostly because I care a lot about how we give feedback, how we receive it, and why it so often feels like an attack (even when it isn’t).

TL;DR: Feedback is care, when it’s done with intention.

In this age of #AI, do #devs still think code reading is a necessary skill? And extending that, is human-readable code necessary too?

Just a few more days🙌 Monday we will release the first episode, 2 more that very week and then every Monday morning from there on

star studded lineup! Excited to hear the first episode!

💯 I've changed my mind bout hiring the smartest person but people who focus on teams. And it doesn't help when the subsystems aren't on the same agenda. If everyone sets their own priorities nothing is going to run smoothly.

yeah :has is a game changer! So simple to do field validation state. Use to go through hacks just for something that simple!

wish we taught our kids a second language. But we resorted using it as our "secret language" when they were younger. No need for it now 🤷‍♂️
