You can check out some more of Henley's work on his blog here. Recent pieces include:
- A theory of how developers seek information
- All my career rejections
- Navigate your code like it's 2021
- Why is it so hard to see code from 5 minutes ago?
- An inquisitive code editor: Overcome bugs before you know you have them
