We enjoyed it. Deffo want to rewatch with the whole film in mind. Bit confusing at times (as intended) but thought it was well done, and hearing that they all learned how to speak backwards was pretty impressive!

Someone asked me if staying at a tech company a long time makes it harder to get a job elsewhere. Not really. The real challenge is that a lot of your effectiveness as a long timer comes from knowing people & processes. You just can’t tell how much until after you leave. Was it 10% or 90% of your success? 🤷🏾‍♂️

Listened to Why building a strong culture of engineering is worth the effort by The Debrief by incident.io
Post details
Whether you’re a seasoned company with 10+ years of operations, or a startup that’s just getting off the ground, making sure you have a good culture of engineering is really important.  Not only will this have a significant impact on the folks on your team, it’ll make a big difference with hiring. When everyone knows that your company is the place to be when it comes to culture, attracting really good talent becomes that much easier.  But I was curious, what do some of the folks at incident.io think about engineering culture in general and how to best build it? Better yet, what about the engineering culture at incident.io? What’s it like? To answer all of these questions and more, I sat down with Lisa Karlin Curtis, Tech Lead, and Alicia Collymore, Engineering Manager, to get their perspectives on this incredibly important topic. We chat about what “culture” even means, why diversity is important, how teams can make sure their engineers feel empowered to share their perspectives and a whole lot more.

I decided to build a "clap" feature into my #IndieWeb blog, so visitors can show appreciation anonymously and easily, if they want! I wrote a little about it here https://www.byjp.me/posts/easy-appreciation/; it uses https://val.town (I wish they had a Fediverse account, so I could tag them) and progressive enhancement to be useful and easy even for folks without Javascript browsers ☺️
