Teams organised around technology stacks and technical disciplines have about as much chance of achieving a business goal as a sack full of ferrets has of changing a lightbulb.
Smart companies organise around business outcomes.

I use URL search parameters to open dialogs.
URL structure:
/[workspaceSlug]/pipeline/[pipelineName]/[pipelineVersion]
Examples
• /[workspaceSlug]/?new
• /[workspaceSlug]/?settings
• /[workspaceSlug]/pipeline/?new
• etc.
Each dialog knows when to open/close. No global state to track any of that.

When your blog post starts with an obviously AI-generated cover that adds no value to it, I'm quite likely to just close the page immediately instead of scrolling past it.

Hot take: Dependency Injection on Android just got a huge upgrade!!
Square just moved Anvil to maintenance mode to adopt Metro - a DI framework built by ONE PERSON that's 47-56% faster than Dagger+Anvil.
This is what "individual developers changing ecosystems" looks like 🧵
