Ok, I’ve told this story a few times, but maybe never here. Here we go. 🧵👇
Wish I had the audio of Rush Limbaugh telling me off on the phone on his show when I was six. In the meantime, RIP.

This was a mistake. I shouldn’t have told him this.
At this point, my eyes kind of start to glaze over. I realize this guy is going to give my mom a hard time for letting me do this, and I probably should’ve kept my mouth shut about the trivia answer.
He’s now berating her for being a psycho parent.
But the show has changed course.
They’re talking about me and my mom. And then in general about how insane it is to let your kids have hobbies like acting or whatever. I

A common misunderstanding about Agile and “Big Design Up Front”:
There’s nothing in the Agile Manifesto or Principles that states you should never have any idea what you’re trying to build.
You’re allowed to think about a desired outcome from the beginning.
It’s not Big Design Up Front if you do in-depth research to understand the user’s problem.
It’s not BDUF if you spend detailed time learning who needs this thing and why they need it.
It’s not BDUF if you help every team member know what success looks like.
Agile is about reducing risk.
It’s not Agile if you increase risk by starting your sprints with complete ignorance.
It’s not Agile if you don’t research.
Don’t make the mistake of shutting down critical understanding by labeling it Bg Design Up Front.
It would be a mistake to assume this research should only be done by designers and researchers.
Product management and developers also need to be out with the team, conducting the research.
Shared Understanding is the key objective
Big Design Up Front is a thing to avoid.
Defining all the functionality before coding is BDUF.
Drawing every screen and every pixel is BDUF.
Promising functionality (or delivery dates) to customers before development starts is BDUF.
These things shouldn’t happen in Agile.

I\u2019d recommend that the devs participate directly in the research.

If the devs go into the first sprint with a thorough understanding of the user\u2019s problems, they are far more likely to solve it well.

Next.js has taken the web dev world by storm
It’s the @reactjs framework devs rave about praising its power, flexibility, and dev experience
Don't feel like you're missing out!
Here's everything you need to know in 10 tweets
Let’s dive in 🧵
Next.js is a @reactjs framework from @vercel
It couples a great dev experience with an opinionated feature set to make it easy to spin up new performant, dynamic web apps
It's used by many high-profile teams like @hulu, @apple, @Nike, & more
https://t.co/whCdm5ytuk
@vercel @hulu @Apple @Nike The team at @vercel, formerly Zeit, originally and launched v1 of the framework on Oct 26, 2016 in the pursuit of universal JavaScript apps
Since then, the team & community has grown expotentially, including contributions from giants like @Google
https://t.co/xPPTOtHoKW
@vercel @hulu @Apple @Nike @Google In the #jamstack world, Next.js pulled a hefty 58.6% share of framework adoption in 2020
Compared to other popular @reactjs frameworks like Gatsby, which pulled in 12%
*The Next.js stats likely include some SSR, arguably not Jamstack
https://t.co/acNawfcM4z
@vercel @hulu @Apple @Nike @Google The easiest way to get started with a new Next.js app is with Create Next App
Simply run:
yarn create next-app
or
npx create-next-app
You can even start from a git-based template with the -e flag
yarn create next-app -e https://t.co/JMQ87gi1ue

(2) Since 2016, Kushner has connived, with Saudi help, to force the Qataris (literally at a ship's gunpoint) to "loan" him $900 million.
(3) This is consistent with the Steele dossier.
(4) Kushner is unlikely to ever have to pay the "loan" back.
2/ So as you read about his tax practices, you should take from it that it's practices of this sort that ensure that he's able to extort money from foreign governments while Trump is POTUS without ever having to pay the money back. It also explains why he's in the Saudis' pocket.
3/ It's why the Saudis *say* he's in their pocket. It's why emoluments and federal bribery statutes matter. It's why Kushner was talking to the Saudi Crown Prince the day before the murdered Washington Post journalist was taken. It's why the Trump administration now does nothing.

Jared Kushner has a net worth of almost $324 million. But it appears that he paid little or no federal income taxes from 2009 to 2016, according to a review of confidential financial documents obtained by NYT. https://t.co/pMQDeCeDNq
