Digital conservation type work?

Surprised it is so little!

I am in Sydney, Australia.

It was a nice surprise to see teenagers working in my local brewery this past weekend, collecting glasses, clearing and cleaning tables, etc. They were probably between 13 and 16. Not allowed to serve alcohol until they are 18, and can take on the personal legal responsibilities for Responsible Service of Alcohol.

Most jobs for teenagers here are in fast food service - two of my friends have mid/late teenagers working these jobs. Most jobs in retail, at least near me, seem to be taken by adults.

Posted down thread, but worth posting as a comment too.

I know Simon follows this "Issue First" style of work in his projects, with a strong requirement for passing tests to be included.

It's been a best practice for a long time. I really enjoyed this when I read it ~10 years ago, and it still stands the test of time:

The rationale was articulated clearly in:

If you have time, do yourself a favour and read the whole lot. And then liberally copy parts of C4 into your own process. I have advocated for many components of it, in many contexts, at $employer, and will continue to do so.

If only there were community standards for this...

Oh, there are, for years :D This has really stood the test of time:

And its rationale is well explained too:

Saddened by realizing that Pieter would have had amazing things to say about AI.
