"We've decided to start Increment, a software engineering magazine dedicated to providing practical and useful insight into what effective teams are doing so that the rest of us can learn from them more quickly. We plan to focus on the ostensibly small things that are actually big things: testing, deployment, development tools, code review. Team practices are very mutable; if we can help accelerate the transmission of good ideas even a little bit, that could be a big deal across the industry." - https://stripe.com/blog/increment
I love inside info on things, and this seems more geared to the support side of tech scalability. One of the harder parts to scale no doubt. Will future issues branch into architecture and stack growth? Will you be featuring other companies input or is this limited to internal references only?
@jollymonatx Hey Jerod! Yup, in this issue, we feature interviews and data from folks from a bunch of companies, like Google, Amazon, Dropbox, and Spotify. For future issues, we'd love to hear your ideas at submissions@increment.com
Writing about these subjects well is really hard. I'm excited to see how Stripe does it with Increment. Great name, BTW! Why did you think to write about it in this format? What are your biggest challenges, @susanthequark, in launching and sustaining the quality of content? (asking as a former magazine editor for a publication I launched in college!)
As a primarily self-taught engineer, I've been looking for something like this forever. Excited to see how you guys handle problems of scale across infrastructure, code bases, and people! 🚀

Stripe is already a great product from a great team. It will be interesting to see what makes up their special approach.
I'm interested in seeing where Stripe goes. We've enjoyed using the service, and I don't think they need side projects to get attention or traffic, so creating things like this (or acquiring indiehackers.com). Lots of different types of devs using Stripe (we do for apptoolkit.io), so creating content sites that focus on different customer demographics is a pretty good way to build an audience for potential stripe users.
