Monzo's solution does not seem to be actively maintained, is it? +100 on the creation of incident chat rooms and pinning data to re-use in incident docs. There is nothing worse than copying the timeline events from one tool to a Google

Ah, netsplits were so eventful. I still remember the split-wars where groups would wait for a split to happen and gain operator permissions only to take over a channel on the merge [1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2F

One problem I stumbled upon frequently is codebases that did not support localized formats, but just assumed a certain format to use, for example through concatenation. There are capabilities built into the programming languages, which allo

+1 to that. If you design UIs, you need to understand concepts like Right-To-Left, one-few-many for numbers and counts, etc. Same for phrases that use different typefaces with an aim of concatenation (e.g. "red" + "apples&quo

A cliff forces one to consider decisions with a different time horizon and tends to avoid short-term thinking (e.g. attempt to tune financial results ahead of a certain quarterly report). Sometimes, companies include in their annual reports

> the constant CC'ing Isn't this exactly like adding/mentioning someone in a chat room? Problem is that in a chat room all communication is public and you're seeing/getting notified of every single small message.

Thanks for the great work on collecting this material. There are many gems here! Chapter 18. speaks about "Manual Testing". Do you have any references on how to manage test plans? These are helpful if It's not really mobile

Having the maintainer trigger the CI job moves the problem elsewhere. Attackers will create new repositories (or take over existing ones) and create the PRs, for which they will trigger the CI jobs. The more apparent problem is that CI jobs
