The design proposed is a bit too clear cut for my case. Other than that it's fairly aligned with what I preach.

This really unlocks interesting features in the C++ space.

A nice little survey of what the academia already had to say about TDD a few years ago. Clearly the outcome seems mostly positive.

Very interesting stuff. This doesn't give a very cheerful picture of the current state though. Can a XMPP revival be in the cards? That would be an interesting outcome.

It's nice to see there are turn key solutions for hosting your own XMPP server nowadays. And the community behind this one even improve on the mobile applications.

This is a nice trick for keeping your secrets safe while having them handy when needed.

Looks like a nice tool for real-time collaboration on files.

That's a good point too often overlooked by people complaining at Wayland. It indeed enable form factors and uses cases that we couldn't address with X11.

Looks like another certification circus is about to begin...

A follow up on the Dropbox sync engine rewrite, or why they introduced brotli compression.

Good insight into why Dropbox rewrote its sync engine for desktop clients.

It's likely the best explanation of the YAGNI acronym I know. Explains quite well when it applies or not.

This is still a valid approach. I regularly encounter cases where the type tag pattern would have been welcome.

This is still a good framework to think about what motivate developers in a team. Not everyone is the same.

A talk from Casey Muratori who is pushing his ideas on software architecture. This one is very interesting on the long history detour it does. Shows well how we keep rediscovering stuff which sometimes go back to the early times of computer science.

Neat little introduction to use your shell properly.

Don't just blindly apply dailies. Make sure they really solve a problem in your team.

You have to be willing to experiment and adjust in order to truly be agile. Otherwise you indeed just do dailies and call yourself agile.

Neat tools to keep retrospective fresh. If people settle too much in habits they quickly become dull.

Nice check list, there's more to project life than churning out tickets.
