Manage episode 256019462 series 1900125
Welcome to Iteration, a weekly podcast about programming, development, and design.
- John: Hi I'm John a software engineer at a tech start up — Joined by JP
- JP: I'm JP, I'm a software engineer at a tech start up
Today we're going to be talking about something that's frequently discussed on the Twitters-phere:
Remote work.
Take me through your day
(day in the life of a remote developer)
- Get dressed
- Take a lunch
What are some of the challenges you've faced?
- John: schedule work just becomes intertwined with life. Dedicated meeting days or blocks make life so much better. Having some kind of boundaries.
- John: communications making sure to have a place for “chatter” and an “updates” cadence.
Some tips?
Get dressed every morning
Have a dedicated space or device
Get good at notification settings and use them
- Slack Status vs "Snooze" — For the hour
Office Hours / Schedule
Over communicate in passive channels
Video / Audio Setup
- Good Audio is most important
- Invest in lighting before a camera.
- A bad camera with good lighting is better than good camera with bad lighting.
Change your scenery
Work from energy not time.
Reduce distractions. Really don’t work with Netflix on in the background.
What are some of the pros / cons of working remote?
- John: Pros: random bunch dates with the wife. We brunch hard.
- John: Flexibility to travel and work. (Trip to Nashville this weekend) .
- John: Lunch break bike rides and dip in the ocean.
- John: Changing scenery, will regularly work from a park on a mountain top or pretentious coffee shops
What are your favorite tools?
- Standing Desk
- Loom
- Slack
- Miranda time zones app
Audio / Video Setup
- Headphones with Good Audio #1 priority, #2 is noise canceling (if you need it)
- Blue Yeti Mic
- A bad camera with good lighting is better than a good camera with bad lighting.
