Mocks. Too many mocks. I changed the code and the tests still passed cos they mock EVERRYTHING. Make sure your tests test something, people!

Estimating story points does not add value. Stories are small. And there are many. Which means the Law of Large Numbers applies. Which implies that the result of repeating the same experiment enough times will be close to the average. (1/2)

Common thinking: "I need to add code to justify my job". Yet some devs remove more code than they add. 👍 "In my 3 years at Facebook, I added 391,973 lines and removed 509,793 lines. If I coded 1000 hours a year, that's about 39 net lines removed per hour!" - Jinghao Yan

Managers and leads, one of your high priority goals is to keep your people out of meetings.

Seriously Python, you default to parsing American Date format, and then quietly switch format if that doesn’t work?!

Python comes with batteries included; Ruby comes with a pretty random smattering of batteries; JavaScript is like "just strap 2,000 cells together to make your own battery; it worked for Tesla".

One reason managing technical debt, etc., is often downvoted when prioritising work stems from a misunderstanding that work adding business value should be prioritised: good technical quality doesn't add business value; poor quality loses it. Prioritise to maximise, not to add.
