performance review hot take: requiring critical self-reviews selects against people with more self-awareness, contributes to pervasive underleveling, underpromotion, and underpayment of underrepresented people, and encourages failing up for the overrepresented and overconfident

If the junior you are mentoring is doing a good job, tell them. If your manager is supporting you well, tell them. If someone wrote a blog post that really spoke to you, tell them. No matter who the person is, everyone needs to hear when they got something right 🤗
My therapist told me that if I had to perform "at my best" all the time, then it wouldn't be my best, it'd be my norm. I need a moment to recover. 😂

IMHO, we should normalize bragging to your manager. A good manager should be paying attention to the work you're doing, but they might miss the breadth and depth that only you know. Personally speaking, I love it when people do this.
This has absolutely finished me off I love her

Hand soldered my first 0201 component today! A teeny capacitor on a PS5 HDMI I knew the husband would *love* a PS5 for xmas but we didn't have that kinda money, so I learned to repair them Got a cheap broken unit, repaired it and gifted it...now I can't stop😅😂 #RightToRepair
I keep a ranked list of possible @exec_prog course topics (each gets scored along a few dimensions, with an overall priority computed from those). Currently it's 35 topics long. It's easy to add to the list, but rare to delete one. I just deleted "Python" because we did it!
Over the last ~5 years or so I've worked hard to: - Remind myself that "this problem isn't my fault, but it's my responsibility" when appropriate. - When a problem is my responsibility, aggressively make it impossible for the problem to recur. Great combo; recommended.
I'm pretty easy to get along with except for the belief that high legibility should be viewed with extreme suspicion In chaos lies truth! In structure, there are a lot of lies designed to sedate us and make us feel calm--which we confuse for real value
Every year I post a “best tech/papers of the year” list. I try to write a detailed blog post, with a few lines on why I liked or what I learned from each of the items on the list. Here’s my list for 2023, if anyone is interested. I’ll have the blog post ready by early Jan
When I think of “hall of fame” blog posts (had an enduring influence on the industry, made a real difference in the way people think about a problem), I think of: - use boring technology by @mcfunley - being glue by @whereistanya - the engineer manager pendulum by @mipsytipsy
Books I read in 2023. Favorites marked with a ⭐️ * A New Program for Graphic Design, David Reinsert * The Mom Test, Rob Fitzpatrick ⭐️ * Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers, Tom Wolfe * What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, Haruki Murakami 1/7
This whole thread on pricing discrepancies in Austrian groceries is crazy and really solidifies the idea that companies are getting more sophisticated (& perhaps more nefarious) about pricing strategies. mastodon.gamedev.place/@badlogic/1110…
Wow Just read perhaps the greatest article about a doctors’ diagnostic skills Not in the medical literature, but in an economics journal! If you think about diagnosis, follow along It won’t disappoint @RogueRad
I think it's been a couple years now since we had a confirmed case of @exec_prog rejecting a correct answer. We're not perfect, and it has happened, and it will surely happen again. But two redundant test suites plus a third in-browser check go a long way. Tests are pretty good!
After spending a little time learning how to program for MacOS, I can confirm this is still true.
The number one skill required for learning any complex system is patience.
this is my sane, healthy approach to being productive despite shit hitting the fan. try it, you’ll like it!

How To Explain Anything (source: unknown)
Write tests where you want your module boundaries to be. Writing them any other place just shifts the boundary — and your modularization.
You can set you watch before someone shows up waving the boring technology club thing. Listen: use Postgres. It’s good advice. But you can’t be boring *in every way*, or you’re just fucking boring.
