So the 800m tomorrow at the LA Grand Prix has been moved out of the TV window, there is not even a live stream to watch. So imagine being a professional athlete competing at the biggest meet in your home country and no way for anyone to watch you…

TDD does not take extra time. Writing tests _first_ is not overhead because they force you to think through the problem and partition it properly. You’d have to do that thinking anyway.
Testing after the fact IS overhead because you did all that thinking already.

@ChrisChavez @TheRealMerb @lauramuiruns @ciaramageean I'll be very disappointed if @ciaramageean doesn't end up getting an "Irish Setter," for setting the Irish record! 🐕🏆

"This is the hardest team in the world to make for a reason. With our group and how competitive it is, if you're top 3 in the U.S., you have a real shot to get a medal." – @TrevorBassitt30

You could argue @goashlandeagles is the best track and field collegiate success and post collegiate success in @NCAADII.
When I say track & field I mean all events, across the board success. Top of my head I can list greats in PV, SP, 400h, 400m, 800m (all diff people)

Cycling: What an incredibly brave performance! He rode heroically for 150km and his team will be proud of the way he attacked the climbs. The strength of the peloton was too much but so much promise for this young rider
Running: Wow very dumb idiot

This tweet makes me want to get a training plan again, even if there isn’t much for me to train about.

I know there’s someone out there who has the funds and wants to manage some kind of mountain retreat experience facility. (I totally would if I could!) But if that’s you, it’s your lucky day because the ZAP facility is available! 😍🤩 zillow.com/homedetails/95…

"I don't have time to write tests".
Do you have time to:
1. Run the app manually after each change
2. Investigate and fix broken builds
3. Investigate and fix QA errors
4. Investigate and fix production errors
Add all that up. Writing automated tests *saves* time.
