When I’m very very busy, I try to do a thing where I ask myself “what one thing must be done today or I can’t call the day complete”, focus on that task completion.
It helps me shut other things out instead of being overwhelmed. If I finish it, I can move on to other things.

If you are:
a) pair programming
b) rotating one member of the pair daily
c) completing a story in 3-5 days (avg)
d) doing trunk based dev
e) with continuous deployment
Why bother with code reviews?
(Fyi I see value in them but want your thoughts)

If you find a bug, the very first step is to write a test that fails because of the bug. Check it in. There, you no longer need a bug-tracking database.

Frankly, I’m a huge fan of face-to-face interaction, which is to say that I’m not opposed to returning to an office of some sort. BUT, that does not mean that we should return to the inhuman dysfunctional offices we had before. Let’s *fix* the office as a prerequisite to return.

Adopting a method such as Scrum is a large batch change for a team, whereas adopting SAFe a very large batch change. Experimenting with a single practice or strategy, such as pairing developers and testers, is an example of a small batch change. #ChooseYourWoW

Lists of questions you can ask to identify a toxic culture in an interview and interviewers that are just doing lip service 🧵:
Am I a backfill? If so why did the other person leave or was fired?
When was the last time someone was fired and how was that handled by management?

If a metric’s not actionable, don’t track it.
Metrics must both identify a problem and tell you exactly what you need to do to fix the problem.

“Acknowledge that the people who are working for you now are not the same people they were before the pandemic. People have grown. They have developed. They have experienced trauma. Don’t assume you have the same workforce as before.”

I liked the analogy of hedge trimming vs tree felling. When you decide to cut down a tree, you can’t stop halfway and change your mind. But when trimming a hedge, you may start with one idea but you can change your mind and modify that plan as you go along.
In a shocking turn of events, something that actually is very good on Forbes. Kudos where deserved, this is an excellent piece by @brycehoffman.
Also, nice for the ego to see that @KleInsight echoes what I have been writing recently.
H/t @sonjabl.
