"An outcome is a measurable change in human behaviour that will help to achieve before set (company) goals." Outcome-based-roadmaps are a really good way to develop a product. In this thread I will tell you why 🧵

If you're unable to create a majestic monolith with basic programming tools like encapsulation and namespaces, you don't have what it takes to improve upon the situation with a distributed swarm of microservices. Your spaghetti code will just be on five different plates.

After years of only hearing about it, I finally got my hands on the 5-page bodybuilding forum thread wherein a couple dudes get into a heated argument over how many days there are in a week and I am here to tell you that it is infinitely funnier than I even imagined it would be.

It's 2023, and I’m tired of debates about estimation and story points.

"The world has changed. We feel it in the discourse. We feel it in the factions. We smell it on the feed. Much of what once was is lost. Our best hope is that Twitter by accident, intent, or happenstance is thrown into the fire of Mount Doom." world.hey.com/dhh/throw-twit…

MUSK: I, the richest man in the world, bought Twitter and wish to bend it to my will. Now, I’ve just fired half of your co-workers, but I expect the rest of you to work long hours and do exactly as I say. Are you with me? STAFF: No MUSK: Why is it so hard to find team players

This is a great video, even by Dave's already high standards! 😄 Are we waiters (order takers) or doctors (people who give advice based on expertise)? All of the "we must estimate the work to get customers" folks think we're waiters, a huge waste of talent and expertise.
How did we let so many people believe that "waiter" is the appropriate role for a SW Dev to play? 2023 - time to reclaim professional responsibility and respect? youtu.be/gsTcKDU73WE

Journalist and former Texas Monthly editor Christopher Hooks @cd_hooks has had his Twitter account restricted after posting this tweet about @elonmusk Elon Musk (the retweet function is disabled for the tweet as well)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The account in question was also impersonating a verified Twitter user, which is a violation of Twitters terms of service. twitter.com/jud_judson_esq… help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-p…

Each of us can help create a culture of psychological safety: 1) Admit our own mistakes 2) Run lots of experiments to try out improvements 3) Make space to speak, be curious & say "I don't know" 4) Be patient - psychological safety takes time/effort/persistence. By @tom_geraghty

"Useimmissa organisaatioissa hierarkinen rakenne on opettanut ihmiset avuttomiksi. Tällöin työntekijät varovat tarkoin ylittämästä niitä rajoja, joita heidän tehtäviinsä tavanomaisesti kuuluu. Samalla he tulevat tehneeksi vain asioita, joita aina ennenkin on tehty." -@PauliJuuti

Two of the biggest mistakes I see companies make when it comes to community: 1. Building an audience when what you really wanted was a community 2. Building a community when what you really wanted was an audience – at North Carolina, USA
