TDD is the BEST way to code with AI. 🤝 I put Claude to the test building a flight endpoint. The experiment proves TDD's strict steps are the perfect framework for reliable AI collaboration. Watch the future of coding! 👇 youtu.be/uq3TUvKaywY?... #TDD #AI #TheEngineeringCoach

I love buying second-hand books. There is quite often a little surprise from the previous owner. A note or something they used as a bookmark. This time, a PostIt from the person giving the book to someone else

Asking for a friend If you give a remote talk to an international audience, can you put "international conference speaker" on your CV, or do you have to travel over a border to do that physically?

Mark Bradley (He/Him) @braddle1.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

Definitely not doing some last minute updates to a slide deck for a talk on Modern #softwareEngineering
