Another common question I’m answering working with scaling tech companies is… Q. How much of your r&d spend should be focused on platform work? A. 50%, and most teams are way off what it should be. Let me explain…🧵 (1/21)
What are the best universities for software engineering? Congratulations to @UVA @CS_UVA for ranking #1 in CodeSignal's 2022 University Ranking Report. 🎉 See our top 50 US colleges and universities for software engineering: bit.ly/3wIEOW3

On software quality: many teams obsess far too much on how to ship with close to no bugs to production: but not enough about how to quickly spot these, and resolve them rapidly - doing this either automatically, or with a simple step. Resilient products/platforms have both.

A culture of refactoring is vital for successfully maintaining large codebases. The more code changes, the easier it is to change. Once code stops changing, it becomes virtually impossible to change. That inevitably leads to the dreaded rewrite and “second-system effect.”
I love hearing stories about #typescript migrations!! Awesome job @calebmer and the @AirtableDev team! link.medium.com/bsZbSylnMfb
