@matryer I find velocity measurements farcical. Estimates are critical, but always wrong, my rule of thumb is double whatever estimate I'm getting from even the most experienced devs. I'm always wrong personally and after 20+ years still hope I'll get it right next time, but never quite.

Does your team measure velocity? Do you estimate tasks? How accurate do you tend to be, and what are some example tasks?
I’ll read out some tweets on Go Time #golang tonight (please don’t reply if you’re not happy being featured.)

@jboursiquot I agree. I would have said the Battlestar Galactica redux if the last episode wasn't the most disappointing thing I ever watched in my life...

@mvdan_ Why not iOS? Curious as I was thinking of switching to iOS...

@smdiehl @juliusvolz @kelseyhightower @aviv_WtMS I've been listening to this @aviv_WtMS podcast nonstop this weekend. It's been kind of eerily coincidental with the crash that just happened. I had stuck my toe in with @smdiehl reads, but now it's like a They Live moment having put on the sunglasses for the first time.

@smdiehl @juliusvolz @kelseyhightower @aviv_WtMS Wow. This podcast is unbelievable so far. I couldn't stop listening to episode 1...

I have been watching github.com/kyleconroy/sqlc for a bit now as it's an amazing library and hope to help. It's a wildly active library. Great job keeping up @kyle_conroy and team though - really incredible work. #golang

@inancgumus Given this, when is it appropriate to create a NewPerson or person.New style initializer? Only when you have logic you need to encapsulate on initialization of the struct?

Recently I felt like updating my website. I chose @GoHugoIO this time around, it's great - a nice experience building themes. I gave up trying to find a theme that I liked, so I made one - you can use it if you like: github.com/itsmattburgess… #hugo #golang

I just completed a new post about logging in my go-api-basic #golang project! For some reason, this seemingly simple topic took me forever to write about and finish editing.
