Thirty fast segments cover hiring, tooling, and process with concrete takes: a Heroku haiku machine serving JSON and a Hue bot adapter; an Engine Yard docs tool that records API requests from tests to generate live snippets; an ID Registry gem implementing identity maps in production for 3–4 years; Jenkins jobs that auto-deploy topic branches to staging; and practical CSS advice to avoid span12 by using Sass extend for semantic classes.
