In 1999, a little book by @KentBeck started explaining Extreme Programming (XP) to the masses.
23 years later, it's still true to every word.
But we, the developers, chose to ignore half of its learnings.
In this thread 🧵I'll fix that for you. 👇👇👇

My friends @KnoxKUB are hiring for both junior & senior developer positions.
This is a great place to build software used at scale, for essential services. They incredibly talented folks building really cool and innovated tools using cool architectures.
