I support this both being a thing for Slack and also some sort of internal whatis tool which given a codename, project, metric, or similar immediately returns the definition and the link to the canonical document.https://twitter.com/destraynor/status/1058794203638063105 …

And *sigh* this is me publicly committing to a pull request as soon as I have some time free.

I think go links have pretty poor discoverability; they’re great for fast navigation to a thing you know exists but optimistically go-ing is not a behavior highly likely to cause success and so doesn’t get ingrained.

> go-ing is not a behavior highly likely to cause success agree! but this is a social problem that any technical solution will run into. would this be fixed by someone ensuring that go/<codename | project | metric> returns something helpful?

I wonder if I can rig something up to pipe me an email every time go/whatevs doesn’t work, maybe on a digest basis. That would probably cut down on 90% of misses after like two days...

@patio11 just to add to this conversation. We do this on our SaaS go/link solution. Plus, you don't need VPN, have a killer Slack app, and one click go/link creation via browser extensions. If you think go/ links are valuable, you should switch to a team that focuses on it.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes

Not trying to sell you on us
Just saying that teams that tend to focus on a particular solution, will usually have the feature, security and scalability that will free up teams to focus on more important things
