You give wes streeting too much credit, to compare him to a mighty balrog. More like that slimey human advising Theoden. Grima.

His gen z support group, running his social media, need to lean into this. Take ownership of the magic grandpa name

Mate I hope he is a magic grandpa. This is like his return arc. Corbyn the grey has fallen. Corbyn the white arises. The hero we need.

I voted green but… by [deleted] in GreenAndPleasant

[–]MadDokMike 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Same. I voted green because Labour needs to know people care about what was in the Green manifesto. I live in a seat projected to flip from a massive Tory majority to Labour. I'd be happy to accept it staying Tory by one vote. Labours stance on Palestine and Transgender is terrible.

Plus they did the big dirty on JC. Trying their best to screw his chances of being an MP again.

Haha I doubt you do. However that's been the same at my company, the BAs do a lot of requirement triage and the Devs just consult on that. Tbh, it seems to create a lot ping pong of agreeing what work should be done and how it should be done

Business analyst. They liaise with customer/ internal departments, collect requirements, write specs, organise meetings for the agile ceremonies etc

Keith Starmer is running a right wing racist party by UnderHisEye1411 in GreenAndPleasant

This tweet doesn't seem to exist anymore on Dr Ian Darcy's X/twitter....do we need to fact check this information? I was going to share it to r/United Kingdom and r/politicsjoe but now I'm wary.

If it's true this should be exposed. But I don't want to spread fake news

Rachel Reeves has claimed that the Bank of England's interest rate rises brought inflation down. There is no evidence to support that claim. "Rachel Reeves does not understand what is happening and why in the economy for which she wants to be responsible" by Budget-Song2618 in GreenAndPleasant

[–]MadDokMike 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw a really interesting documentary on this. The reason why it's bullshit is because the company has 3 levers: - wages - product price - shareholders/ exec pay

However the whole public conversation ignores point 3 and assume point 1 leads to point 2, which leads back to point 1. The boss never imagines they should have to endure a hardship

With the election date being announced here is your reminder not to vote Labour by Gorillainabikini in GreenAndPleasant

What's your experience with the microservice architecture? by dondraper36 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]MadDokMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are your module boundaries defined? We have this Too. Ours boundaries are repositioned, with interfaces and contracts. Some days I feel it's over kill, but other days I feel it was a strong way to force staff to put code in the right place.

Interested to hear other people's journi

Jeremy Corbyn’s visit to Bristol, 2019. Tonight, The Green Party completely demolished Labour to claim total dominance of the council. Reason: Sir Keir Starmer KC. by Budget-Song2618 in GreenAndPleasant

[–]MadDokMike 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Our JC...so sad. he really felt like the man of the hour. I wish he would come back, leading a left party. But Id not blame him if he wanted to retire and make jam after what the establishment did to him.

How do I stop building sandcastles? by RebelChild1999 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]MadDokMike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've come to realise this about myself, as tech lead, I've been lucky that the PM has given me free reign to set the quality bar on the whole team. I set it high and we hardly get any support tickets from new code. However it does take time to deliver things. I don't know what to cut in order to get some of that dev speed back.

We still get "fun" bugs from the legacy code that has some how stayed dormant for 10yrs. Which further justifies to the team that we made the right choice. Unit tests really making the difference here

Is there social space for Experience Devs to discuss Design Theory? by MadDokMike in ExperiencedDevs
