@jmoiron Backend isn't immune to this. Many operations practices that scaled down reasonably well to new developers solving small problems have been replaced by things that don't, with each generation getting more compicated than the last. https://t.co/rgAKqX7QGb

@jmoiron @drmistercody you remember 9/11 after which no new restrictions of any kind were placed on flying
@jmoiron new startup idea "at google we" swear jar
@jmoiron RT @ryanworl: I can finally share what I’ve been working on for the last two years at Datadog! We’ve rewritten the analytics storage and qu…
@jmoiron @PreetamJinka Google photos search is unsurprisingly pretty good; in my experience people don't realize they can search their photos like this. https://t.co/6pRVGKb0Mh
@jmoiron Might as well be a map of the entire United States.
Reminds me of FB notifications saying so-and-so was "doing something near you tonight!" and the event would be in Cliffside Park or Jackson Heights which... it's easier for me to fly to another country. https://t.co/gCdL0nEW4Z
@jmoiron @bytemask @gcouprie it's useful to find out who to ask about something you don't understand and to see how old something is
@jmoiron @pmbauer You'd think I would have put two and two together since it is compulsory for Brits to tell any American at the pub that their pints are larger, but I just assumed the whole system was idiotic and the gallons were identical.
@jmoiron For years I didn't understand why cars in the UK seemed to have much better fuel economy than in the US and I assumed they were just smaller and better cars until I finally learned that the UK gallon is 20% larger (4.5 Litres vs 3.78 Litres). https://t.co/ANAJIh9gKT
@jmoiron gravatar but for setting everything globally to degrees celsius
@jmoiron Whoa, I did not know that there was a NUMBER GIRL revival. Can SUPERCAR also get back together please? https://t.co/IdHpXHSJWI
@jmoiron RT @lbernail: It all started with DNS issues. Business as usual right? A month later, we were reading rp_filter code in the kernel to under…
@jmoiron @katie_hockman Welcome, feel free to reach out 👍
@jmoiron @bethcodes @ade_oshineye My approach: focus on data structures and APIs/interfaces. I write docs super early; if things get too busy or muddled, that's my feedback. When the structure stabilizes, I start testing. Sounds like we read the same signals in different ways.
@jmoiron I wrote a bit about test driven design and mocks and why I'm not that into them: https://t.co/89nhgnx9mK
@jmoiron @jkupferman JetBlue did this at T5 JFK for a while, through a sub contractor. Not sure if it's still available.
@jmoiron @discordianfish @juliusvolz it's because you're viewing it as a count, and the interval changes as you zoom out: https://t.co/wmQeF94D3n
@jmoiron @epcjones "sharded" is untainted by the CAP theorem is my guess as to why. I can't get people to give up "transpiler" because excluding "real" compilers is a meaningful distinction to them.
@jmoiron @elithrar You get 3hr in a queue instead it's very civilized.
@jmoiron @chimeracoder @goinggodotnet Function should answer its question with the bool and indicate a problem answering that question with an error, like any other, IMHO. Don't make users learn an error taxonomy to know a non-error result.
@jmoiron Noticing this new genre of great resignation post: "These past 3 years at Google represented the realization of a childhood dream of mine, and after this incredible journey I am moving on to new exciting challenges!"
@jmoiron Staggering amount of suffering associated with this tournament. There have been more deaths of migrant workers building World Cup 2022 infrastructure than estimated civilian deaths to date in the 2022 invasion of Ukraine: https://t.co/VAVEi9Jbon
@jmoiron There can be no more conclusive proof of dopeness. https://t.co/ZNBv588Wu5
@jmoiron @seldo We didn't conclusively know that the earth moved until Bessel's observation of stellar parallax in 1838. We didn't know for sure that comets were mostly water (dirty snowball) until the the Giotto probe met up with Halley's Comet in 1986.
@jmoiron @barelyreaper Yeah, that's the other side, a key feature. Occasionally this also reduces the volume to zero, another bonus.
