Developer Tea

Friday refill - happy Friday!We have a drive to balance everything. Move back towards the middle, maintain status quo. But usually, balance is wasteful and an illusion.

In today's episode we run a thought experiment. What happens when a story changes? Can we ever get back "on track"? History is complex. Predicting history gets more and more complex the further away we try to predict. We should be careful with our predictions.✨ Sponsor: LaunchDarklyToday's episode is sponsored by LaunchDarkly.

How do you make work look good on your resumé when you feel like you haven't done anything impressive? Only the people who work with you know the value of what you did, so how can you communicate that in a bullet point?

We're all guilty of it - not letting that thing go that happened at work on Friday.
