* [Tips on naming boolean variables](https://dev.to/michi/tips-on-naming-boolean-variables-cleaner-code-35ig)
* There is a convention to prefix boolean variables and function names with "is" or "has".
* Try to always use is, even for plurals (`isEachUserLoggedIn` is better than `areUsersLoggedIn` or `isUsersLoggedIn`)
* Avoid custom prefixes (`isPaidFor` is better than `wasPaidFor`)
* Avoid negatives (`isEnabled` is better than `isDisabled`)

* Wood's theorem: As the complexity of a system increases, the accuracy of any single agents own model of that system decreases rapidly.
* The more tools and code that you add to create elements in a system, the harder it is to replicate an environment encompassing those tools and code.
* At the core of testing in production is the idea of splitting deployments (of artifacts) from releases (of features).
