In legacy software development I often see the same mistakes being made over and over again. 🤦‍♂️ But I guess it is hard to the right thing, because the solution is in doing what contradicts the intuition. A thread 🧵 👇 1/8

This week I've used GCC 7 on a GCC 4 platform to build Python to build GCC 11 to build GCC 11 to build Clang 14 to build Clang 14 to build Rust's LLVM all so I could get rid of some paths that had snuck their way into librustc_driver's debug symbols. This is fine 🐕☕🏠🔥🔥🔥.

In tech, people think they can only keep being relevant if they are working on upstream abstractions (e.g. stuff devs engage with directly). Every successful piece of tech becomes commodity and becomes downstream. There is nothing wrong working on something downstream.

People working on developer products need a rotation program. Every 1-2 years, we should rotate to the user role to examine how well our projects are doing in real world scenarios for three months.

Don't be afraid of giving descriptive and long enough names to variables and methods. Additional characters are cheap, confusion is costly

#CFP - You have Two, Maybe Three Sentences to Grab My Attention - Who Is Your Audience? - Focus on What’s Unique about Your Talk - Keep It Concrete and Concise - Avoid Product Pitches - Don’t Quote Gartner 🤓 - Use Good English - Learn from the Masters teapawt.org/clementplop/status/955…
Vey good post about writing good #conference #proposals. The first advice is the fundamental rule: "You have 2, Maybe 3 Sentences to Grab My Attention" - it applies to the selection committee but also to the attendees choosing their next talk. buff.ly/2mUHRoQ #cfp

I played Dungeons and Dragons with my daughters. They were supposed to fight the wolves surrounding a town. Instead, they fed the wolves and turned them into their friendly wolf army. Girls, man. They’ll take over the world.

The secret behind many great engineering organizations is how they answer this question. "Are you rewarding people for building a whole bunch of complex stuff that no one can maintain or are you rewarding people for doing the simplest thing?" -- @lizthegrey

Unlike apparently so many people, I find twitter inspiring! So many smart people and interesting things — a little pruning required now and then, but it is more a problem of limiting the amount of quality versus finding it.
