We’re introducing a new release cadence for API versions—twice-yearly major updates with monthly feature enhancements. This schedule helps you better plan development work—Acacia is the first major version under this new model. See how it works: stripe.com/blog/introduci…

I was trying to figure out why the ball kept getting bigger and bigger. Then it hit me.

*cackles in 22 official languages*

Switzerland has four official languages. How can a country so linguistically diverse work? econ.st/3MclNkV

Language is a free way to be strategic. The right words can make you warmer, more authoritative, and more effective. The wrong words can make you seem negative, passive, or confrontational. Here are 7 words to delete today:

Excited to start talking about what I've been working on lately: a high level, extensible programming language for describing APIs code-named Cadl. You can see Cadl compiling to OpenAPI 3.0 on the playground: aka.ms/trycadl. Note: super early, pre 1.0 stuff ahead 😁

The reason that aliens have never visited us is because our solar system has received terrible reviews. We only have one star.


My best #wfh story to date is when a senior on a call said "Ramya, chaar whistle hogaye, cooker band karle" - translating to "Ramya, 4 whistles are done, switch off your cooker" We then launched into a discussion on whether rice + dal needs 4 or 5 whistles.


Just had the most productive hour of my recent professional life today! Nothing like a last min dash to complete writing a doc you started days ago. All it needed was @holtbt pushing our 1:1 by an hour & me self-committing to share it with him by then.


It has been 12 weeks since I moved from using Teams to Slack & today was the day my brain finally got to override my muscle memory of using Cmd+K for adding a link to text. Yay!


Submitted an expense report. Feels like I crossed some kind of a milestone at the new job. #teamoffsites


Is it just me or is it super hard to keep track of the meeting chat when you are the one presenting & running the meeting? Recently, I glanced over the chat after the meeting & saw "We are all adults here Ramya". I had no clue what that was for!!

I just want to remind you that sometimes deciding NOT to do something is just as brave as deciding to do something. You don’t have to do everything

Yes! 11 times Yes! I'll "never" cancel is an impossible promise to keep though. Life happens even to a manager, they will also take vacations. This should have a clause of "as long as I am working that day". Other than that, this is a great thread!

11 Promises from a Manager: a 🧵 1. We’ll have a weekly 1:1. I’ll never cancel this meeting, but you can cancel it whenever you like. It’s your time.



Oh this is a skill I learned recently, but it is also something that I need re-learn every other day because it is so easy to fall back on prior habit of filling the silence :(

one of the most valuable skills I've learned as I got more senior, and am still working on, is a few seconds of silence. silence: to collect my thoughts, to encourage others to speak, to not negotiate myself down. I used to have an impulse to fill silence and I'm glad to lose it



"..., physics being the ultimate barrier" There is a lot of reading to do in my new role. Came across the above phrase today and it is now my favorite. I am so going to find every opportunity to use this 🤣


The announcement to lock the repo to make this move was one of the first emails I read when I joined @stripe, and my first thought was: Woah! Great job team!

Over the weekend, my team at @stripe converted the company's largest JS codebase from Flow to @typescript We modified about 3.5 million lines of code, and then hundreds of developers came in Monday morning ready to write TS.

If you publish a library to the @npmjs public registry without a readme, you are doing it wrong. Especially if you also publish from a monorepo and link to the root, not the specific package, from the repo field in your package.json.


I've stopped saying "let me **quickly** share my screen". There is nothing quick about it.... ever.


Yes! I was 10 years old and he immediately became my favorite actor! It was also the second English movie I ever saw. The first one was Baby's Day Out.
