New blog post by @EdskoDeVries on falsify, his new Haskell property-based testing library with Hypothesis-inspired shrinking well-typed.com/blog/2023/04/…
I must be crazy, but I can't find another way to get strict unsealed pattern matching errors without using the typelevel scala compiler. Is there an easier way? How are people not finding this annoying?

As I've been saying, the producers of news need to not only debunk, but actively #decenterTrump.
Last night, Anderson Cooper did a monologue about this very subject. It got surprisingly emotional. Watch:
As much as I love code review I have come to believe the private sector has embraced the wrong parts from open sourcr, especially it being a mandatory gate. Post merge reviews should be the default where there should be more trust.

I noticed today that the originator of gitflow has added a note at the top of his gitflow page cautioning that it's a bad idea to use gitflow if you're building web apps.
Again, for those in the back: IT'S A BAD IDEA TO USE GITFLOW FOR WEB APPS

This morning I decided to use @hedgehogqa for the property-based testing chapter of my Scala book. Tonight I created my first pull request for the project. That escalated quickly.

Shape Up is a new book published on the web that describes how we build software at Basecamp. The 6-week cycles, scoping the work, budgets instead of estimates, assigning projects not tasks, and forgoing the dreaded backlog. It's all here. basecamp.com/shapeup/

Some levity during these times: Krazam released one of the funniest sketches they’ve done so far.

Continuing to use model checking with Hedgehog to verify some in-production code, and continuing to find very subtle design flaws. I thought this code was solid, it's far from it.
This technique is a must to have in your toolbox!

If you've ever tried to test a stateful app in QuickCheck, Hedgehog or any other property-based testing library you'll know it can be seriously difficult!
Check out this tutorial for a simple way to test stateful apps using Hedgehog.

“My boss invited me for a one-on-one chat where they politely asked me to revert my change. I was aghast. The old code was a mess, and mine was clean!
I begrudginly complied, but it took me years to see they were right.” overreacted.io/goodbye-clean…
