These shenanigans – and more – in one week at my @pyconpl.bsky.social 2025 talk: "What's going on in Python dependency management? The modern way to go"
Let's find out? See ya in Gliwice (and later on my blog when I post it)!

50% of these deranged words are real Python dependency managers that people actively use.
The other 50% are gen Z slang.

Well AT LEAST he's broadcasting the intention, so we can avoid the grift

The chance you'll find insights in my latest post is exactly 50% – either you will, or you won't. And the only way to find out? It's right here: newsletter.posthog.com/p/glue-teams... [2/2]

I have post'd about scaling engineering orgs.
I've already written the customary cringe post for LinkedIn in true B2B SaaS influencer fashion – so I'm not even going to bother here. "Glue teams vs. back-office teams" [1/2]

I would love a Google for the real, uncommercial, personal – different from appending "reddit" to the search, I mean really getting those blogs out

ah yeah the familiar whiplash of seeing a legacy media org cover something you're an actual expert in and realizing "oh if this is how badly they're fucking up this, how badly are they fucking up every other topic?"

I have a handful of “magic” phrases that have made my professional career easier. Things like “you are not your code” and my preferred way to say no: “that doesn’t work for me.” These are tools in my interpersonal skills toolbox. I find myself uttering phrases like, “right or effective, choose one” at least once a week. This week I realized I had another magic phrase, “we don’t do that here.”

We don't do that here thagomizer.com/blog/2017/09...
