Also, your office is full of awake engineers at that time. Which is better than a handful of on-call sleepy engineers and crossing your fingers the rest of the team wakes up when you call them if something goes completely haywire.

Reading the headline I was afraid YouTube started disabling the Spacebar for play/pause because of some vague UX reason. But it's the other way around.

You can't, because you design to never invalidate, there is no way to ensure if and when this change is propagated through your entire cache layer (and local caches like browsers). And thus guarantee to the client the change has been m

I feel the same. I used to be able to get uncountable hours of gameplay out of simple demo's of games because I didn't have the money for full games. The examples that come to mind are Cavewars and Fallen Haven. Both strategy game

When I stopped seeing code reviews as gate keepers and started seeing them as collaboration and communication points it finally made sense to me. But reviews only work well if your team shares a common goal, like maintainability or knowledg

Bingo. If your function is properly tested or your _intent_ is properly documented/commented I don't care how the code looks (to a degree), as long as I have all the information I need to refactor it right there. Also reviewers sh

Maybe they don't have to understand the detailed inner workings of an algorithm and such. But they should be able to deal with that piece of code in abstract. A good comment on what a piece of code is intended to do is perfectly fine t

Mileage may vary and it depends on the direct impact an approved review has (ie: is it CD to production or are there other quality gatekeepers), but giving junior members this responsibility can greatly help them in personal growth. They ca

One thing I've learning is code review should never be used just as gate-keeping for the senior developers. Rather, let everyone (juniors, QA, non-developers) in the team perform reviews of everyones code, even your senior code. Not on
