I have been quite involved in this, cool to see it go out to users.
Playlists have always been core to how people experience Spotify (there are nearly 9 billion user-generated playlists and counting). And now, we're making that experience even better and giving users more control over how things flow. Check out our new playlist transitions, rolling out in beta to Premium users this week and let me know what you think.

We’re launching a cool feature globally for Premium users. It’s called Offline Backup, a custom playlist based on your own listening that automatically appears when you are offline (like when on a plane … or deep in a Swedish forest). That way, you never have to be caught without downloaded content on Spotify. Check out below for more details. I hope you like it!

It wasn't until I'd *taught* algorithms a few times that I finally understood why sorting is in the CS curriculum. Unfortunately, most curricula don't explain this!
It is NOT because sorting is an important algorithm to learn to implement...

A reality that most devs working at large companies take time to appreciate:
Personal connections tend to make things easier: the larger the company, the more so.
The larger the company, the more noise every team has to cut through. These connections help cut through the noise.

What I wish more tech companies/scaleups big on A/B testing codified:
Not everything needs to be an experiment. Experimenting has value add, but doing it too much has the team forget their vision, and people focus on experiment results over building something meaningful.

In a company with 100 employees, 10 will produce half the work.
This is Price’s Law: 50% of the work is produced by the square root of the total employee base.

An interesting term I learned today: "borderless engineering."
Referring to the practice that engineers can - and do- "float" to other teams to help out with work for as little as a few days, or up to a few months.
Especially relevant unblocking large, org-wide projects.
