  • Human chess!

    Grappling is great because not only do you need to learn strategy, patience, set ups, push pull, etc; you also have to train your body to do what your mind is thinking.

    If the body is capable but the mind is weak, you suck. If the mind is capable but the body is weak you suck. And if both are weak, your just like me!

    Also it’s gender semi neutral. Women can absolutely dominate against men using skill. Same with Davids vs Goliaths.





  • Very common.

    Don’t feel pressured to approve anything you don’t want to, but still be chill. It’s just work after all. (This duality takes years to figure out, but if you can, you’ll be very valuable)

    Get the PM involved. Bring it up in retro and stand up.

    Examples.

    “I don’t feel this is PR is up to our company standards. Here’s a link to the document. Specifically tests are breaking, coverage is reduced, and your using global variables. If you need help with quality we can code pair next sprint or if I finish my tasks early. Let me know”

    “Just a reminder that we have 3 PRs with needs work sitting in the queue. If you’re not able to finish them before the end of the sprint, let the scrum master/PM know in case it’s a high priority”

    “We’ve all signed off on a standards guideline, and lots of PRs are falling short. Either we need more training time each sprint to reach it, or were going to have to officially reduce our standards. Let me know which one the CTO prefers”
