If you think pair programming is inefficient, try waiting hours to get your code reviewed & having to context switch between tasks while you wait. And then switch back when you get the feedback & have to rethink your approach because you weren’t discussing it as you wrote it.

Just added myself a profile on name.pn at https://name.pn/jamie-tanna for my name, pronouns and pronunciation of my name - great service! I think I'm also going to build a similar thing on my site, too

Things like this, and very slow build/test/deploy lifecycles are pretty low-hanging fruit - makes a huge difference, as well as making your teams happier!

We recently found that the new 2021 M1 MacBooks cut our Android build times in half. So for a team of 9, $32k of laptops will actually save $100k in productivity over 2022. The break-even point happens at 3 months. TL;DR Engineering hours are much more expensive than laptops!Jameson (@softwarejameson)Wed, 03 Nov 2021 18:52 GMT

Not a great leading indicator when the person in charge of the hostile product decision gets promoted to lead up the whole dev division, including GitHub. One of the worst parts of devrel is when management decides to ring the register and sell off the earned developer trust.Post details
The recent open source moves by Microsoft are interesting. On one hand, I love the power of a vocal community; on the other, I hate to see community/devrel teams left to clean up after a bonehead decision from an executive who is clearly disconnected from the reality of the work.
