I rarely (if ever) post anime recommendations on my personal account, but if you’ve got Amazon Prime you should watch Look Back.

Latest Thoughtworks Technology Radar is out - our regular survey of technologies that capture our attention in our client work. We found lots of AI-adjacent tools to be useful, but also that coding assistants often lead to problems thoughtworks.com/radar

Here’s the thing folks. I’ve been coding 32 years. When something like this happens it’s an organizational failure. Yes, some human wrote a bad line. Someone can “git blame” and point to a human and it’s awful. But it’s the testing, the Cl/CD, the A/B testing, the metered rollouts, an oh shit button to roll it back, the code coverage, the static analysis tools, the code reviews, the organizational health, and on and on. It’s always one line of code but it’s NEVER one person. Implying inclusion policies caused a bug is simplistic, reductive, and racist. Engineering is a team sport. Inclusion makes for good teams. Good engineering practices makes for good software. Engineering practices failed to find a bug multiple times, regardless of the seniority of the human who checked that code in. Solving the larger system thinking SDLC matters more than the null pointer check. This isn’t a “git gud C++ is hard” issue and it damn well isn’t an DEI one.

Well folks…cat’s outta the bag ;-) I have been barely controlling my urge to tell you all about this for a year now — and the day has finally come! Words fail to express just how proud I am of this — and how honored I have been to work on a book that, to me, is one of the best ever written on the topic, hands down. Grateful beyond measure to both Rosenfeld Media and @leahbuley for their faith in me. 🙏🙏🙏 I have no doubt whatsoever that this second edition of THE USER EXPERIENCE TEAM OF ONE will be instantly useful and applicable to so many #UX, #UI, #UXresearch and #ProductDesign folks battling every day on the front lines of corporate product development. A quick summary of what’s inside from @RosenfeldMedia: A lot has changed for UXers since the release of Leah Buley's The User Experience Team of One in 2013. UX teams are bigger, design is considered more necessary, and the digital landscape is crucial to any business. That's why we're excited to announce the second edition of The User Experience Team of One—an updated survival guide for a new age of #UX. With the addition of co-author Joe Natoli, this updated book addresses the often-difficult situations practitioners find themselves in, such as: - The struggle to do good work in corporate environments where speed and urgency routinely trump importance or value - The increasing need for UX practitioners to be generalists, executing across multiple areas of the discipline at a very high level The User Experience Team of One (2nd edition) confronts these challenges pragmatically while keeping intact the down-to-earth, communicative voice that makes this book so special. Pre-order your copy today and save 15% off the list price! rosenfeldmedia.com/books/the-user… This one, my friends, is FOR YOU. 🙏👊🔥

@Givemeabiscuit Any on there are good. It depends on what kind of flavour of coffee you’re after. Try different regions. See what you like. Read up on all the tasting notes. Search for coffee tasting wheel.

I’m at Photo London. I’m really enjoying all the photos on display. I’m also curious watching people walking around with cameras. They’re almost like a fashion accessory in this context.
