It's time for Is This Testable? A Personal Journey to Learn How to Ask Better Questions From My Applications and Engineering Team with @mkltesthead at @PNSQC #PNSQC2019
Also I'm taking selfies with his phone. :D @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead I like playing dress up in many forms. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead It's a voyage of discovery! @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead The @ministryoftest 30 Days of Testability just got a shout out by @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Testability involves a few things: communication, involvement, and a willingness to look at a product objectively. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC A hypothesis is testable if there is some real possibility of deciding wether it is true or false based on real experience. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC What is light? What is dark? We don't really know, so we can't really test it. But if we use actual numbers for light and dark, then we can test if they are too close. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC "Generally speaking, math is pretty consistent. We'll leave string theory out of this." @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC You can't automate a subjective feeling. You can automate objective things. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Get familiar with your log files! Welcome to your first flash of the blindingly obvious. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC We can all agree this is generally how cars work. Tesla owners, don't get at me. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC We have to look at the things that plug into our application--each component has log files that I need to keep track of. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC The takeaway I want to encourage is to champion unified log files wherever you can. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC How many of you have a good relationship with your sales engineers or customer support engineers? Only a few? Okay, homework: go home, find one, buy them a drink, and learn about their pain points. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC If you can collaborate with someone like a sales engineer for CSR, they can help you have the best test environment available.@mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Being able to plug in feature analytics will let you know how people are adopting your features. What features are they actually using? @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC We can guess, but real data is much better. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Automat-able does not necessarily mean testable. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Second piece of homework: everyone go look up @eviltester and follow him. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC "How am I going to test this?" If you don't ask this for every feature, you will regret it. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC "What are situations I can throw at this problem that go beyond the status quo?" @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC I'm a reenactor and a cosplay nerd--I love persona testing! @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Conduct regular show and tell--show people what you've been working on! @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Pair with your developers. Work on tests together! @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Identify your dependencies. Your application is not just your application--it is only as testable as he most remote dependency you have to interact with. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019
@mkltesthead @PNSQC Heat seeking: check your source code and find where you're making frequent changes. @mkltesthead #PNSQC2019

I haven't had one of these in a few months, but with everything going on re: China, the NBA, the media, and the Democratic primary, it is time for a long thread.

Don't want to put it on Patreon, since that's college sports.

Not ready to start blogging about politics, but close.
The first and biggest thesis I wish to put forth -- which I will spend time explaining here -- is that if you are unsure of whether the media and public figures are either:

1 dumb

or

2 dodging the truth...

... you should almost always pick No. 2.

It's usually not stupidity.
Two very common current examples begin this thread:

A) People think the media are dumb, and that the media haven't learned from 2016 how to cover Trump or politics at large.

B) People think Steve Kerr is dumb for what he has said and not said about China.

In this thread I'll go over some principles that helped me self-teach and get my first dev job. In no particular order and off the top of my head. I'll go into more detail in a blog post at a later stage...
#codenewbies #100DaysOfCode #301DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie
Principle #1: Habit. Don't expect to always enjoy coding. Sit at your computer regardless. My keystone habit is actually getting up early, everything flows from that. In days gone by you couldn't drag me from bed if you tried. Now it's almost automatic. Keep working at it.
Principle #2: Active learning. Avoid passive learning at all costs, it's a cognitive illusion. This is scientifically well documented. Test your memory. Try creating your own features, get stuck and find solutions on Google. If it feels uncomfortable you're doing the right thing.

As many of you know my Team has been working almost two years on the unsolved murder of Seth Rich. We have uncovered more than any group in America in this investigation. This is a thread and rundown of our findings to date. With some theories added at the end.

#SethRich
Seth Rich was the Data Director of New Voter Registration for the Democratic Party (DNC)

He was shot in murdered in the early hours of Sunday Morning July 10th, 2016.

Many, including our team believe he was the Wikileaks Source.

All evidence points to this.

#SethRich
Seth Rich according to reports was at Lou's City Bar on Irving Street in Washington, D.C. before he was shot and killed walking home. We'll tell you exactly what we know in this thread, where he was, where he went, and all data we can release at this time. #SethRich

“If the path before you is clear, you are probably on someone else’s.” Purpose leaves you in doubt of your sanity. It is never clear but requires your faith and trust in God. The peace you get is the assurance that all will be well. Pilots trust instrument clusters not clouds.⛱
One would have thought that Tweets with Childlock as this, simplified to the fullest will not need explanation but they sometimes confuse the simple folks one was trying to help from sinking in the linguistic territory abnitio.
There is no one with a meaningful purpose that has a clear path. You can only have clarity on your ability and capacity (if you have found yourself) and would need to trust God in the rest. Look at Moses, was his path clear before the read sea? Of course not. It seemed impossible
