Geek, agilista, blogger, codefella, serial reader. In the daylight - I navigate & lead software engineering. #lean #design #aws #elixir #analytics. I speak here for myself only.
> TL;DR The need for the decentralized systems is not a fairy tale - we (as a society) depend more and more on opaque "weapons of math destruction", struggle with real-world ecosystems that are just too complex to be manageable in traditional ways. I tend to believe...
> TL;DR The entry threshold in software development industry gets lower & lower - it's a great opportunity for so-called developing countries to spur the "close-the-gap" efforts towards more advanced ones. Some approach it more naively (ehhh, India ...), some approach it smarter - I had...
> TL;DR Poor (in terms of engineering culture standards) work environment doesn't just impact negatively the end products (quality, fit-for-purpose), development process (effectiveness, efficiency) & people morale - it can also deteriorate their skills, attititudes, long-term motivations. One with high standards is not likely to welcome happily...
> TL;DR Over the next few years we'll likely see another big shift in software developement industry -> basic app building knowledge will commoditize & another generation of smaller & bigger development centers will pop up. This model is highly inefficient & in majority of cases...
> TL;DR Due to software's innate complexity & its ephemeral character it may not be easy to assess the "level of its completeness" (/readiness) - it's not only that opinions on that may vary, people are also reluctant to give final statements (due...
> TL;DR Right tool for the right job - this applies to such tiny details as fonts as well. If you spend a lot of time with written text, you should optimize this aspect as well, most likely even considering varying scenarios separately - I've set up...
