Interesting dive into the DisplayPort protocol and its advantages, looking forward to the next article in this series.
Interesting list of advises. Most of it makes sense, I'm less convinced about avoiding the headers for the authentication mechanism though.
This is about behavior and not structure indeed. Put the focus at the right place otherwise your tests will quickly become expensive to update.
Neat way to see how several queuing strategies behave. Picking the right one for your system is important.
A bit sarcastic, but makes its point efficiently. It's important to realize that more code to maintain is definitely not what we need.
Calls a bit too much everything mocks while the term test double would have done the job. Still it stresses fairly well the importance of being as close to reality as possible and the tradeoffs we have to make.
Where does this style of tests shine? A few elements to consider.
Habits indeed cut both ways...
Nice little article about Conway's Law. Shows nicely all the ramifications it has.
It's definitely tempting me to switch my blog comments to the fediverse as well.
Black has been getting too much of a bad reputation in the last few years. This article makes a good job arguing for a more balanced view.
Interesting alternative to the "T-shaped skills" metaphor.
It'll be interesting to see where this complaint goes.
Very nice article. We must not loose from sight that actual learning requires some sort of effort. Even better when it's coupled to using your hands (definitely why I still take notes written by hands for some things).
I'm not necessarily convinced this is as much a silver bullet as it is presented here. Still there are benefits to such a structured approach for reviews in community projects.
Too often managers loose track of the level of autonomy achieved by the people around them. It's important to gauge this properly though. Too much or too little guidance and prodding can lead to frustration.
I mostly agree with this. I'd just complete it a bit: it's probably a good idea to have at least one language where you went really deep in (emphasis on at least). A kind of strategy to aim at "T shaped skills" (or better "paint drip shaped skills").
In praise of property based testing. This definitely completes well the tests you write by hand.
This is a welcome consequence of the CJUE ruling. Be warned, think twice before reaching for Google Analytics.
Remote work is clearly the best way for smaller companies to compete to attract talent. This greatly increases the size of the pool of potential hires.
