This was a great read. Thanks to the author for the vulnerability. In this thread and others, HN does a lot of talking about the fixed properties of these languages and frameworks.…

Oh wow. I love the idea of DevLog. I’ve spent a lot of time helping engineering teams get better at regularly communicating what we’re doing, with context, that everyone in the com…
