    Don't solve problems with software that should be solved with talking.

    There’s got to be one of those named paradoxes where the more precise some language attempts to be the more ambiguity it generates as people start to focus on the minute aspects of phrase/tense/omissions/whatever

    My howto documents always end up like "Look, here are guidelines. They're wrong sometimes. Think about the other humans and make appropriate life choices. When in doubt, be kind. Ok bye."

    Process is hard. no process: wasted time figuring out how to do things guidelines: people treat it as law and want to document every edge case clear process: pages of legalese; everyone hates it And "use common sense here" turns out to be a very subjective thing.

    The Google SRE book defines toil as work that's "manual, repetitive, automatable, tactical, devoid of enduring value, and that scales linearly as a service grows". I like how Tiarnan boils that down further. It's a useful way of categorising work.

    I'm speaking at in October about one of the worst things you can do to your coworkers: the half-migration 😱😭😡🤔 Lead Dev is *the actual best* and btw their CFP is open and you should propose a talk.

    Hey people managers! Here's a free, practical tip for making your organization more inclusive. It's one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to increase representation of senior level underestimated folk, and improve retention. It has to do with "Stretch Opportunities."

    It's such a tragedy that the only way to have written is to write.

    I’m excited to speak at about recognizing and addressing harassment when you're in a position of power and rarely experience abusive behavior directly. Hope to see you at the conference:

    Ms 7 couldn't sleep last night because the giant chick in her scratch coding project keeps triggering the upside down dog's event logic. She wouldn't calm down until I wrote a reminder to help fix the code. So now my to-do list has "sort out giant chick situation" as item #4.

    "Look, a quadruply nested loop!" *applause* "I never really got my threading worked out so I just ctrl-zed the program to stop it" *applause* "Didn't get around to the last optimisation so I just left it running for two hours" *applause* <3 my AoC friends

    We had a work Advent of Code retrospective on Friday where each of us shared our favourite solution and our worst hacks. It's lovely to be in a place where you feel safe saying "I made this. Look how terrible this part is!" and have everyone else laugh appreciatively and applaud.

    Most audiences represent well over $100K in "their time spent listening to your talk." Respect that. "I threw these slides together on the plane" or "this is a rough draft of my next talk" isn't respectful.

    So I like my setup now but it's annoying how hard it was to get here. I guess some people like being distracted all the time? Probably not most of us though and it sucks that we all have to individually wade through configs to make our phones not distraction machines. <end>

    Stuff is happening and I'm not watching in real time but guess what, it's still happening fine without me. WILD. [Caveat: I'm the only person on the planet who didn't know a new episode of The Good Place dropped this week. But someone told me, so we're all good here.]

    That's what I've come up with after tweaking things for the last six months, and it's made a real difference to how distracted I feel. It's also made a difference to my level of background anxiety, to step outside the "real time news feed" world a bit.

    * provide an alternative "mindless app" Sometimes I just want to stare at my phone and not think, but I don't want to get absorbed in a game that eats my life. Duolingo is my "I just want to play with my phone now" toy app. It scratches the same itch and is actually useful.

    * social media stays a distance away I was using Android's "digital wellbeing" timer to make me mindful about Twitter usage, but it's easier to log out and never save the password locally, so there's a bit of friction any time I want to log in. I mostly read Twitter on my laptop.
