Working Code Podcast - Episode 175: Overcompensation, Mentoring, And More

On today's show, we cover a variety of topics. I talk about overcompensation at work; and, how we often swing way too hard in one direction at the first signs of a challenge. Carol talks about how her current task got away from her; and, how she suddenly found herself creating a Pull Request with 84 files in it (I have strong feelings about Pull Requests). Tim talks about the generational smoking ban going into effect in England. And Adam talks about the challenges of mentoring junior developers; and, how hard it's been to have enough "right sized" tasks ready for them to work on.

All that and more on this week's show:
