@iamjoyheron And you absolutely have the
right to call yourself whatever you feel reflects best your capabilities.

Here I think we can focus more what we do (e.g. [Product, Solution] Engineer)
instead of how we do it ([Full Stack, Frontend, Backend] Engineer).

I think I'll stop eating meat burgers. I made this homemade beetroot burger with
halloumi and blue cheese and it's just so much tastier than every meat burger I
ever made.

My summer bike feels like new again. After ~15,000km it was time to replace the
crankshaft, the breaks, the chain and the front gearwheel. No more cranking
noises and nice break feedback!

@emilybache I'd say that it's not necessary
that the approved value is machine-generated. I use this technique when
implementing "formatters": given input, I write down the expected output
manually. Then I test the implementation against that.

Stop complaining about node_modules.

I have 1,2 GB of dependencies for compiling a hexfiles to flash on an embedded
devices.

@lessless_ua They do! There were some classic cars which had their engines
replaced. But I think one of the appeal is that you are allowed to preserve them
in their original configuration. Also, here they are just a tiny part of
traffic, you rarely see any classic car on normal days.

Replying to @tdpauw

@tdpauw One question I use during interviews is
"what have you learned recently and would like to share?". It's more open and
tests also for their ability to explain a topic they are familiar with.

@miskaknapek
@datenreisender I don't think that Object
Oriented programming is the right answer here.

A better principle is most likely:

  • keeping methods small (do one thing)
  • composing operations with multiple small functions
  • making these not mutation global state but take an input, and return change

Look at this @NordicTweets cutie! This is
the hardware part of the #iot Cat Tracker project I am currently working on, and
my colleagues just spend two days assembling two of these by hand. There are
components on it which are smaller than a grain of sand.

I have this wild dream of turning email in organizations into a force ranked
issue list where the sender gets direct feedback about the impact of their
request.

@alexfischer Auslandseinsätzen passieren
nicht von heute auf Morgen, sondern sind Missionen die von Truppenteilen
ausgeführt werden die genau dafür vorbereitet sind. Ee wäre das selbe zu sagen,
dass die Feuerwehr nicht auf Brandeinsätze vorbereitet ist.

Welcome Germany, also already needed hard cash 💰 to pay for the baggage storage
at Hamburg central station.

A colleague asked me, what my preferred platform for learning more about
software engineering is.

It's my work!

And here is how I do it: I am always experimenting. >

Replying to @coderbyheart

Every time I work on a new task (something bigger, not a bug fix), I will try to
implement one aspect using a different, new approach so that I always have one
uncertain element, where I can learn and try a new thing. But only one!

Replying to @coderbyheart

You will work at the helm of a $100M investment effort and help to get the
exciting tech we have developed to unfold into amazing and innovative #iot
products in the hand of our customers.

Replying to @coderbyheart

I worked for two years on nRF Connect for Cloud and can tell you that there is
amazing potential to tap the brains of hundreds of amazing engineers and build
on top of that.

Replying to @coderbyheart

It requires all your creativity and empathy for the customer because at Nordic
we have tech on our hands years before it reaches the end-user. This means you
need to think ahead of anybody else in the market.

Replying to @coderbyheart

Develop not simply long-range wireless solutions but have the paradigm shift in
mind that our products enable: an entirely new category of #iot products becomes
feasible because of our ultra-low-power chips.

Replying to @coderbyheart

Bonus: this role is based in beautiful Norway 🇳🇴, out of our offices in
#Trondheim or #Oslo. We sponsor relocation with @onboardnorway (which made
moving here for me two years ago so easy).

I'm happy to tell you more! PNs are always open.

Goodbye #socrates2019!

I had a fantastic time and am blown away as usual by your love and compassion
for building an inclusive community around being better humans in front of
computers. 💙💯💥🤗

That's a first. My train gets overcrowded (#ice777) by passengers whose train
broke down. Now my train has overweight and can't continue. I'm leaving and will
wait for the next train. #dbfail

@SoCraTes_Conf You should come, I
experience so many there that bring their full self to the conference and
receive respect with compassion and a deep commitment to make everybody feel
safe and included. That's the magic of SoCraTes: strong community builders who
lean in.

We just transferred a bigger amount of money (like in we needed to call the Bank
for confirmation big) to Norway using @TransferWise. It took a day until it
reached our account and did cost roughly a third of what we would have payed at
our bank. Great service!

@ChristinGorman Hei, I am helping to build
the event page for the Ada Lovelace Mini Conference and I would like to provide
speaker information on the page (if that is OK for you).

Would you kindly provide me with the information you would like to share?

#chaosengineering is about acknowledging that we are wrong all the time and with
that knowledge deliberately and scientifically work towards being less wrong.
