The principle of volunteer-run, by developers, for developers means we do this to give back, create space for learning and knowledge sharing, craft and discussion.

I feel so disconnected from tech Twitter since switching from dev to engineering management. I feel weird discussing my job now that I work with people instead of code so I’ve been quiet. I’m curious what y’all would be interested in hearing about from a new engineering manager?

Day 30 of #100DaysOfCode Went to the @torontojs social bbq (was a ton of fun!), reviewed and tested a few pull requests, and then pulled a new scss issue that I may have the opportunity to resolve with the new range context queries unit. Love watching Dependabot work flawlessly

The thing that you have to understand about leadership levels like mine and above: by the time someone has drawn the courage to ask you for help on something, it’s at the point that you have to make absolutely sure you’re paying attention and willing to help.
