How to open a window as a software developer: 1) Spend a bunch of money on a CO2 monitor. 2) Open a window.

We remain committed to our partnership with OpenAI and have confidence in our product roadmap, our ability to continue to innovate with everything we announced at Microsoft Ignite, and in continuing to support our customers and partners. We look forward to getting to know Emmett Shear and OAI's new leadership team and working with them. And we’re extremely excited to share the news that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, together with colleagues, will be joining Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team. We look forward to moving quickly to provide them with the resources needed for their success.

Over the last two years, we've moved Stack Overflow for Teams from an on premises data center to Microsoft @Azure. In part one of our two part series, we share the architecture considerations and steps that went into our cloud migration. stackoverflow.blog/2023/08/30/jou…

Scrum is a cancer. I've been writing software for 25 years, and nothing renders a software team useless like Scrum does. Some anecdotes: 1. They tried to convince me that Poker is a planning tool, not a game. 2. If you want to be more efficient, you must add process, not remove it. They had us attending the "ceremonies," a fancy name for a buttload of meetings: stand-ups, groomings, planning, retrospectives, and Scrum of Scrums. We spent more time talking than doing. 3. We prohibited laptops in meetings. We had to stand. We passed a ball around to keep everyone paying attention. 4. We spent more time estimating story points than writing software. Story points measure complexity, not time, but we had to decide how many story points fit in a sprint. 5. I had to use t-shirt sizes to estimate software. 6. We measured how much it cost to deliver one story point and then wrote contracts where clients paid for a package of "500 story points." 7. Management lost it when they found that 500 story points in one project weren't the same as 500 story points on another project. We had many meetings to fix this. 8. Imagine having a manager, a scrum master, a product owner, and a tech lead. You had to answer to all of them and none simultaneously. 9. We paid people who told us whether we were "burning down points" fast enough. Weren't story points about complexity instead of time? Never mind. I believe in Agile, but this ain't agile. We brought professional Scrum trainers. We paid people from our team to get certified. We tried Scrum this way and that other way. We spent years doing it. The result was always the same: It didn't work. Scrum is a cancer that will eat your development team. Scrum is not for developers; it's another tool for managers to feel they are in control. But the best about Scrum are those who look you in the eye and tell you: "If it doesn't work for you, you are doing it wrong. Scrum is anything that works for your team." Sure it is.

I am in the market for a mid backend engineering role. I have 3+ years of experience, fluent in Go, TypeScript, JS, AWS & Terraform. Also, you get a DevOps engineer (Me) for free 😅😅. Grab the only copy, now! I'll appreciate a referral too. Thanks drive.google.com/file/d/1WvbTgl…

@NotMyAgile I once worked with a team were each developer had its own file that contained all their code. Stored on a network share. Hell does exist

Woof. That last code merge was a mess. From now on, I suggest you merge less often so we have fewer delays. #NotMyAgile

@aalear So sorry Adam 😞

Man, saying goodbye to a pet really sucks. Gonna miss you, Jasper. You were the best little buddy anyone could ask for.
