The Best Code is No Code At All

Σπεύδε βραδέως. This is a story from my once-in-a-lifetime project. This is a story about performance. Or about speed. But mainly about practical ways of keeping your and your team's sanity and health under high pressure.

Why Good Developers Write Bad Unit Tests mtlynch.io/good-developers-b… => so much goodness in there 😻 I always struggled to explain why certain tests are good and others are bad, so I'm glad having found this excellent article now, and @deliberatecoder explains it really well :)

Can anyone help me figure out how the #Android command line tools (sdkmanager et al) are versioned, or more specifically: how can I find out / query which exact version is currently installed on a given system? developer.android.com/studio… (I will buy you a 🍺 if you can tell)
I'm a big fan of using "pull.rebase = true", but TIL about "branch.autosetuprebase" and "branch.autosetupmerge" (the latter being slightly mis-worded) which looks even better :) #git #gitconfig stackoverflow.com/a/22147540…

I guess this is not really representative with only 5 votes, but still glad to see that rebasing prevailed here ;-P As a followup: is this just another TABS vs SPACES debate, or is there substantial benefit of using one approach vs the other? #git #rebase #vs #merge

Yesterday was the first time since May I was allowed time with no interruptions. I reduced our deployment times by 50% from ~12 down to ~6 minutes. Please estimate how much time my client has wasted by insisting there was no time for non-feature related work.
STOP THE COUNT! 🤣🤣🤣
