It apparently goes back to a 1994 question asking what would happen to Python if its creator were hit by a bus. Gotta give credit where its due:

In an ideal world, we'd document everything, update our runbooks, etc.

In the practical world, this person becomes the subject matter expert, then gets pulled into every on-call, then bitches about having no time to document anything, then *BOOM* they buy a bus ticket away from the company because you've killed their morale ;)

Before we got married 15 years ago my wife and I broke up and got back together several times. It can be the foundation for a great future- this sounds like a woman who wants to get it right and stay committed for life.

@Anchor what a wonderful resource. Never going to loose that one.

That’s the CO2 capture system we all need because of the new video card.

You must have forgotten to also accept its suggestion to overload the original function with the AI-correct order of parameters ?

@hitko 🙇‍♂️ thanks. I’m grateful for your feedback.

@masterwayne as a manager, it’s also my job to sit down with the junior dev and have the other side of that conversation - get good or get gone.

As a manager, this is the conversation I have with seniors like that:

- We expect our junior devs to review code . We expect them to occasionally give bad advice. We expect them to make mistakes, and learn how to fix their own mistakes. As a senior dev, I expect you can teach juniors how to review code properly. I expect you’ll encourage them to understand their scope of competence and how to provide quality advice backed with facts. I expect you to create the guardrails that allow them to make mistakes safely, including updating our coding style guide and fixing the code linter. The senior who can be the best teacher is likely going to get the principle dev promotion when it comes available .

Success! Found nothing successfully.

@chatgpt write a short story about a werewolf coder who writes shitty code, but can’t commit it because of peer reviews. On the night of the full he force pushes his bad code instead.

You run any corporate bullshit on your machine that spies on your TLS connections? That shit fucks with the normal connection process and prevents normal error messages.

@b2plane - I find most commonly, if you’re using ‘:latest’ as a tag, the server might not get the latest changes. If you explicitly tag your images with a build number, and use that tag instead of :latest you might find it helpful

LGTM :shipit:

Check out the book “tiny habits”. It’s a good read for inspiring change

I think the majority of quality problems come from having vague and ambiguous product definitions. Product managers should present a feature to devs, who can break it down into pieces, and each piece can be tested. A user story isn’t completed until it has a test in place. Unit tests should easily link to user stories. A good user story fits the INVEST acronym , with “T” being testable.

Good quality code starts with devs asking “can we test this simply” and if not, it’s probably too large to code and needs to be split smaller.

Also, Make sure you have both integration and contract tests on top of your unit tests. A repo should test itself (unit and integration tests) and should test things it depends on (contract test)

Yes- it’s a horrible means of connection two systems when IT is not involved. I much prefer the knock and respond format, where something like HTTP/2 can open a stream connection for you.

@hjk101 Nope, just the Americans

@netikras I’m confused because I’ve heard stories in the news of employees not getting paid…. But haven’t seen anybody personally impacted despite all the usual networks I search (DevRant, LinkedIn, Mastadon, etc)

Do you think there’s an email to themselves when an account has suspiciously low usage?

@sureAzure one of my mentors was the second public signatory …. https://agilemanifesto.org/

Just remember, a company can never “be” agile, they can practice “agility” . Be Leary if anybody who says “we are agile”

That’s awesome! Git is complex… one day you’ll need this https://ohshitgit.com/

If another team owns the work, it should be on another teams board. Your board, your work.

JetBrains Datagrip is top notch. Supports obscure connections too

Happened to me once. I tried to get out of a company for months, and every interview failed after checking my references. My manager left the country for a month, and I used an old manager as my reference. Boom. Job.

Do you have enough in your Fork01k?

It might be time to retire.

110% code coverage.

More realistically though, when the time it takes to manage the tests outweighs the risk you’re mitigating by testing

At least they know it’s failing 🤷‍♂️. Miles ahead of my place most days.
