Oldie but goldie - Browser developer tools are great and essential not only for web developers also for software testers it's a great tool in the toolbox.
I made a video about it. You asked for some more basic videos, there you go!

Shift Left Testing isn’t just for software—it’s transforming AI & prompt engineering too. 🚀
In my new video, I share why prompt testing is critical for building trustworthy AI + strategies to test earlier in the pipeline.

"Mehr generierter Code führt zu mehr Refactoring." Ich spreche mit @dnlkntt.bsky.social darüber, wo KI im Testen hilft und wo sie Schulden erzeugt. Klare Use Cases, klare Grenzen. Jetzt reinhören: swt.fm/5ea9

Beautiful.

One more thing that makes remote work less trustworthy: "bait and switch" (the person interviewing is not the one who will be doing the actual work) at scale.

Every one of these schemes brings profits to a small group while destroying broader trust of full-remote work.

You also have people doing this bait and switch...

> * We find the projects
