“Don't call it #scrum, don't call it #agile (both are neologisms making it hard to convey what it is all about). Call it #incremental and #iterative. This makes it much harder to up sell bullshit. Which was the reason to use neologisms in the first place”

Trunk-based development When it comes to software delivery speed and quality, trunk-based development is the way to go. It took me a while to realize this myself. I used feature branches with pull-request as the main way of working (writeup of an experience of using pull request), so well aware of the advantages and disadvantages. But switching to Trunk based development felt very counterintuitive to me. For sure the build would be broken all the time and the quality would be horrible, especially with a larger group of people?
Great resources by Nelis Boucke on how to get started with #trunkbaseddevelopment.
“Dear Developers, worrying I know, but your job is dialogue, not coding.”
True!
Trusted by millions, Basecamp puts everything you need to get work done in one place. It’s the calm, organized way to manage projects, work with clients, and communicate company-wide.
Basecamp’s Guide to Internal Communication for #remote teams is full of great advice not only for distributed teams!

Good post by John Cutler ... also read the linked follow up post. Many teams who end as uninspiring feature factories start with good intentions! #productdevelopment

How remote workers from around the world feel about remote work, the benefits and struggles that come along with it, and what it’s like to be a remote worker in 2019.
The State of #Remote Work is Buffer's annual report that showcases the world of remote workers and seeks to understand them. They asked nearly 2,500 remote workers to tell them about the benefits and struggles that come with remote work, what remote work looks like in their individual experience, and the structure of their companies that allowed for remote work in the first place.
Buffer teamed up with other companies who are either fully remote or support remote work, to make this report possible: Doist, Hubstaff, Remote-How, RemoteYear, Trello, Workfrom, and We Work Remotely.
“I have criticised the diversity that was in your conference and which you were probably putting off til later Forgive me it was terrible so white and so male Anyway here is an Olive branch 🌿, a guide to help doing better in the future: https://t.co/O9SXmF9X3x”
What to do if your conference lineup lacks #diversity.
If you don't train your engineers, someone else will and you end up with a random set of skills which need individual gap filler training, instead of educating through a curriculum where students can help each other and improve the training for the next. #hiring

“We ended up with over 1,200 applications for the programmer opening at Basecamp. If you’re having trouble attracting talent, feel free to copy our playbook: Hire remote, be explicit about pay, detail job exhaustively. https://t.co/ZJnzMvjXZY”
How to receive 1,200 applications for a developer role. #hiring
Inclusive language matters! #diversity

Several reasons why developers working on serverless applications will do better work if your company gives them their own AWS account.
Yes, with AWS Organizations is easy to set them up and this also lets you figure out development vs. productions costs.
I personally have multiple accounts per project, for testing, preview, demos.
Make it easy to set up your solution in new accounts will benefit your solution!

“Going fully remote was nice, but the real benefit was in going fully asynchronous. Here are a list of the benefits we've seen at @Gumroad: A thread 👇🏽”
Benefits of remote and asynchronous work at Gumroad.
Imagine you have to store data whose massive influx increases by the hour. Your first priority, after making sure you can easily add storage capacity, is to try and reduce the data’s footprint to save space. But how? This is the story of Uber Engineering’s comprehensive encoding protocol and compression algorithm test and how this discipline saved space in our Schemaless datastores.
Good description of a process for picking a good protocol for a specific usecase scenario.
“The uncomfortable truth is that a small, co-located team of developers can build almost anything in a reasonable amount of time. Which is why outsourcing will never make sense. The overhead, failure rate and coordination cost will eat "economies of scale" for breakfast.”
