Five for Friday – March 29, 2024

Happy Friday everyone – read on for some potential interest…

  • First, an announcement. Wednesday, April 3 is the Tenth Anniversary of the AB Testing Podcast – and it’s also our 200th episode. We’re going to record it live at 6:00pm PDT – it’s basically a podcast / webinar.
    If you want to take part, join our Slack group and you’ll find a gcal link in the #general channel – or if you don’t do slack, I’ll plan to post details on linkedin beginning on Monday.
  • I’m a little late in posting today, because I took the day off for first hike of the spring. The Wallace Lake Loop was perfect – with a few side trip, it was a fun ten miles.
  • As a current remote worker – and an advocate, I found a lot of interesting points in this 2024 State of Remote Work.
  • This article is targeted at Quality Engineers, but everyone should read it – RAG for Quality Engineers
  • And…I stumbled this article from Ryan Peterman that was clear, accurate, and valuable The Tech Lead’s Playbook.

That’s all for this week, and that’s all for March 2024. Hope to see some of you (virtually) Wednesday night.

    I thought it would be worth writing this up and sharing. Last week was, for me, at least, time for another Windows update. With this one, my mouse stopped working – or to be clear, it started becoming unusable. The x coordinate speed was 1/3 of what it should be. With three monitors, it was pretty…
