PĂ„ samma sĂ€tt som Twitter klarar sig ”bra” utan 75% av sin personal sĂ„ funderade jag pĂ„ vad som skulle hĂ€nda om Stockholms stad drog bort allt underhĂ„ll och personal frĂ„n Skolplattformen. LĂ€s nedan en trĂ„d om vad som faktiskt pĂ„gĂ„r varje mĂ„nad i SkolplattformenđŸ§”

Has there ever been a moment in the history of programming where someone didn't care for the build errors and preferred to run the last successful build?

Got reminded of this classic article from a discussion at work today. Just as relevant today if you replace the buzzwords of 20 years ago with the ones today. joelonsoftware.com/2001/04/2

Stripe, 2011. I decided to assign a custom ringtone to PagerDuty. Chose the iPhone's duck sound. Many (many) problems and pages followed. Years later, walking through park, I heard a soft quack. Shivered involuntarily, pulse quickened. And that's how I ruined ducks for myself.

Oh, c'mon, guys. You're doing graphics for the freakin' Olympics, and you can't get your numbers aligned? How does something this embarrassing happen at this level? Maybe the software stinks? Use tabular figures, and turn off kerning. That's it. @NBCSports @NBCSportsPR

HĂ€r görs avtalet om frĂ„n det upphandlade fastprisavtalet till ett ”gör vad ni vill” avtal. ”Samt att lĂ€gga diskussioner om skadestĂ„nd och viten Ă„t sidan”. 🙈 Jag förstĂ„r verkligen hur situationen mĂ„ste varit innan detta avtal men lösningen borde varit: ta om upphandlingen.

I miss Ron Gilbert games. If I was rich I'd just make a fund that all it did was bankroll whatever adventure game he wants to make, for as long as he had any inclination to make them...

I think I'm a good programmer, then I go do something that is way more complicated and messy than what is required, and I don't figure that out until 4 years later, when it's obvious. This happens all the time.

2013 upphandlades Skolplattformen med krav att det skulle finnas ett dokumenterat API med SDK. Den dokumentationen begÀrde vi ut i december. Staden skyllde pÄ sekretess men i förra veckan visar det sig att det inte finns nÄgon dokumentation. De bluffade mao. 1/3
