I love working with colleagues who don’t work on UIs and are always so astounded when I can do something for them in 5 minutes. There is a flip side to the above but this tweet isn’t about it that šŸ˜‚

Every time I learn a new part of technology I’m reminded that computers work because people all agreed to follow some convention.

The longer you go without updating your website the more you’re willing to just burn it down and start over. I cringe thinking about the dependency updates I need to handle 😬

Friendly reminder that job titles, even when they use the same terminology, are widely inconsistent across companies. Moving titles up and down with job changes doesn’t signify a change in skill level. It just means that companies don’t calibrate šŸ˜…

I hate the ā€œpeople leave managers not jobā€ mentality. It’s more like ā€œbad managers won’t incentivize people to stay, but good managers might not be able to keep them eitherā€.

One tweet and I’m reminded why this place is absurd. If you think a tweet about management influence over employee retention is engagement bait then you have no concept of what engagement bait is.

I know we all joke about prod outages being a badge of honor. But whoever was behind this one may want to keep that story in the vault until they retire šŸ˜… Either that or go on a public speaking tour talking about that time they took down…the world?

this is the dumbest thing i’ve ever heard of in my life. does elon not understand that sometimes you block people for your SAFETY? if someone is making you feel unsafe or harassing you, why would you want them to still be able to see what you’re up to? unreal.

Uhhh I don’t need technology for that. Just because my brilliant dream state solve was ā€œpurple because aliens don’t wear hatsā€ doesn’t mean it doesn’t count!
