if you happen to write a useful tool with oh-so-fancy addition, and said addition is a) not needed for the tool to work, b) has significantly more requirements than the tool,
PLEASE make building the addition optional. And test if --without-… really works.
At our recent AC meeting in Hiroshima, Japan 🇯🇵 @simone, new W3C Security Lead, spoke on Security.
Privacy and security, fundamental to HumanRights and civil liberties, have always been key W3C agenda items. Onofri outlined a three-pillar approach to security: developing security standards, verifying those standards, and guiding #developers to create a secure web.
Hear me out. #Tinder but rather than for dating, it's so that #opensource#developers can find open source #designers and bring things to fruition. I call it… okay, I don't have a punchline for the joke. But it's low-key a good idea.
Your boss, manager or client will never ask you to take time to refactor your code. They'll never ask you to set up a test suite for the code you wrote. They'll never ask you to upgrade your framework.
Do these things every day. Make them a part of your process. You don't need permission.

This workbook takes the code review anxiety intervention that we designed and tested in our empirical research (https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8k5a4) & distills it into a self-paced workbook for you. It's designed for you to read & work through as many times as you wish and provides you with the tools you need to mitigate & manage your anxiety about giving or receiving code reviews.
The current frequency of language usage on the Web (e.g. 52% of websites in English) doesn't reflect the diverse cultural and linguistic needs essential for global access, highlighting the importance of internationalization (i18n).
Fuqiao Xue, @w3c i18n activity lead, gave a comprehensive report of past and future @webi18n work, collaborating with spec and #browser#developers to address gaps, particularly for endangered scripts and #languages.
Manager: Lets teach a non-developer office worker how to push code to git. "It's just clicking a few buttons. I've done it before. It's not that hard."
