M192: Find a way to structure your opinion after each interview of a new candidate Apr 18, 2022

Show notes

When you interview each new candidate, your opinion will most likely be pretty subjective. I suggest you try to find a way to structure it with some generic approach, which you will apply to all interviews. This will help you not miss important information and always have a good explanation for your decisions. The video is here: https://youtu.be/o_S1aSLoh14

M191: When a bug report is not as simple as it can be, don't fix it Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

The best bug report is the one that represents the simplest possible scenario where the bug shows up. Most bug reports are not like that. I suggest rejecting them and letting their authors simplify them. Blog post: https://www.yegor256.com/2022/03/29/bugs-occam-razor.html The video is here: https://youtu.be/UXu_Uejo0f0

M190: Make sure the bugs you report explain the simplest possible scenarios Apr 04, 2022

Show notes

When you report a bug, try to make it as simple as it's possible. When you accept a bug, ask the reporter to make it as simple as possible. Somebody has to do this work of minimization of a bug. I suggest this work is done by reporters. Video is here: https://youtu.be/jiEJnLBowHc
