If you're not going to provide hands-on training and mentorship to junior devs, don't hire junior devs. "Junior" does not mean "cheap labor".

So I'm buying a house on Monday π€ which means that last night I was doing some serious packing. Well, between games of #ApexLegends of course!
Had an awesome time at the #NottTechParty tonight - #WiFiWars is always an awesome time, and the festivities were extra fun. Doesn't hurt that I came third overall, too!

10 times out of 10 I would rather work with an engineer who has never touched code before but is a nice person to work with than with a top-class engineer who is also an asshole. The asshole will always create more problems than tickets they close.Emily (@EmilyKager)Wed, 02 Dec 2020 19:27 GMT

How do I look a teenage girl at a high school workshop in the eye and tell her that there's a place for her in the tech industry, knowing she's going to have to struggle through years of being underestimated, underpaid, and overworked just to get half the respect of her peers?

Well, tonight at #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham I managed to get my staging site using my new #indieauth server, and aside from a couple of hiccups, it works π now I just need to clean up a few bits and add some logging for debugging, then we're good to go π±
As December is a pretty busy month, this week's #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham will be the last of the year - so we're going to look back at the year, and try to see some of the good in it. Note that it's on Thursday, not Wednesday!
I'm extremely excited for the #NottTechParty! We've had WiFi Wars come to Capital One a few times, and it's been a great time, and works so well virtually.
Also, some great prizes available π±
