I am bursting to share some huge professional news. Thank you @dwhittemore for the incredible journey. I'm so excited for what the future holds.
We’re thrilled to share some big news! @PracticaHQ has been acquired by @BetterUp, the human transformation platform.
We can’t wait to embark on this new journey as part of BetterUp to build on our AI and coaching journey — and look forward to seeing what the future holds.
I am incredibly proud of the @PracticaHQ team for all the hard work that went into this launch. A true AI Coach is a lofty goal and today we took a big step towards it.

It was such a fun discussion! @lucaronin you are a great interviewer.
A few weeks ago I interviewed @ajscheff, CTO and Founder at @PracticaHQ, at an event organized in the Refactoring community 👇

My thoughts on itemized lists:
- The ideal number of items is 3 (duh)
- If you have 5+ items in a list, make it 2 or 3 with sub-items
- If you have 1 or 2 items in a list, why is it a list?
- If you have 4 items in a list, then the list better be f'ing revolutionary
Incredible step forward. Parabola's connective power will enable so many more AI-powered use cases
AI has arrived for Operators.
Introducing GPT-powered steps that combine AI’s ability to interpret data with Parabola’s efficiency to structure it.
It’s exceptionally accessible and extraordinarily capable.

Here's the roundup from our first-ever Demo Faire -- live demos from 18 SPC startups... "It's not just the AI, it's the love". @andrewparker @tmadon medium.com/@southparkcommons…
A client just told me that they were going to put my email in their "f you, imposter syndrome!" GDrive folder. It felt good to hear.
Also, that folder should come standard on every OS and cloud storage service.
Great work @parabolahq team! I love this product. Parabola perfectly balances power, ease of use, and flexibility.

I gave a talk @sfdjangomeetup about how the software engineering profession is an awkward teenager and how embracing teaching will help us grow up. Here’s a recap:
Finally, I give some practical tips. My favorite: don’t implement a mentor-match program and think you’re done when you’ve made a match. Tie the mentorship to a specific outcome.

Thanks for having me @manishsinhaha and @RudyMutter!
