Has anyone used an automatic translation tool that generated code in multiple languages that does sensible things in #python? AWS CDK and Docusign both use such tools, both generate libraries that are awkward (and in some cases just wrong).

If your going to publish a #python SDK for your service, add type hints. Also, understand what "async" means in that language, not what your automated translation took thinks it does. Looking at you here, @docusign.bsky.social

What do people with smaller teams use for roadmap and idea tracking (B2B products)? We used Aha in a previous place but it very much feels like overkill for the current team/product. Mainly I want customer-facing idea portal and some roadmapping through to Jira for the dev team.

An hour of sitting down and working out the design and flow of a complex thing (and complex varies depending on skill) is 10x better than just diving in to a whole day of writing and rewriting code and results in cleaner, more readable and logical code.

@nmeans Watched your session from LeadDev on UA232. Great story telling - resonated really strongly, I've been working on bringing lessons from aviation to both tech and medical (through volunteer work with SJACymru) for many years. I find generic CRM resources... 1/2

A long shift with some really difficult jobs on Friday, so after some discussions with colleagues yesterday to walk through the job, I'm taking some time to put thoughts down in a reflection today and get them out of my head.

Hey @Authy users of our site are getting some very random logos when adding our site to the app. Images I can't even find on a google image search with the same term. How can I influence the logo that users get on our site?
