Discover how the parking-lot pattern gives developers and Scrum teams a lightweight way to capture tricky bugs and off-topic issues without derailing focus, reducing context switching, and improving delivery quality.
Discover how a simple daily ritual of explaining your code to a rubber duck can sharpen your thinking, expose bugs faster, and make solo programming feel a lot less stuck (and a bit more fun).
How to understand messy legacy code without reading the whole codebase—using the Three-Trace Rule, modern tooling, and smart logging to turn unknown systems into navigable territory.
How a simple ten-minute ritual can reduce context-switching costs, clear your mental cache, and help you keep deep focus across multiple coding tasks.
Learn how to turn every commit into a five-minute ‘capsule’ that captures what changed, why it changed, and what it impacts—so your future self and your team can navigate code history with ease.
How a simple one-page vision document can keep your coding projects focused, motivated, and alive long enough to actually ship.
Discover how ten-line sandboxes—small, disposable scripts—can transform your coding workflow, reduce fear of failure, and help you test big programming ideas quickly and safely.
How to use a simple, repeatable “Foggy Function Detector” ritual during code review to spot confusing functions early, refactor with confidence, and keep your codebase healthy over time.
Discover how a one-page feature canvas can align teams, clarify scope, and prevent scope creep—before a single line of code is written.
Learn how to approach refactoring like a writer editing a draft—using small, safe, incremental improvements, strong tests, and tools (including AI) to make code changes less scary and more sustainable.
