Thread on current state of tech recruiting seen from the perspective of an experienced dev 🤓

Hi! 👋 Lots of recruiter emails & questions. Truthfully, I've been considering this decision for several weeks, and decided to use this opportunity to apply at >50< different organizations. Why? So I could see what the process is like for people these days. I've learned a lot.

💯 accountability culture is a culture of care. Accountability is how we grow and express empathy — I can’t imagine a healthy workplace without it.

This is one of my pet peeves. I understand Slack doesn't really want free Slacks to exist, but having them be so bad harms the brand in general. Like I associate Slack with screwing over communities.

“Being agile” doesn’t mean forcing product teams to knowingly ship shite so you can generate your very own data to prove it’s shite before working in needless increments towards making it less shite.

This is awesome stuff from Glitch and I hope it'll get some good adoption over tools like Linktree!

Moving over to #Neovim was such a good idea - not only are the Async, LSP and general UI improvements making it a nicer experience, but I'd completely forgotten about being able to embed Neovim into other UIs, so this is being written from Neovim embedded into Firefox using the very awesome firenvim project

HTTP_PROXY and http_proxy (and https equiv) are different environment variables, and some processes respect one, but not the other. That took me too long to discover.

Don't know about everyone else, but I find it really difficult to find out / remember what versions of libraries are installed on the AWS Lambda runtime - luckily I've blogged about it so you don't have to remember! https://www.jvt.me/posts/2021/11/17/aws-lambda-java-runtime/ (although JDK11 still needs a bit of help)
