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 If maintainability & extensibility of your software are among the top priorities, readibility & easy-to-grasp correspondence to functional requirements are far more important than conciseness & technical "aesthetics" (e.g. compliance with patterns) of your code. That's why to build good solutions we...
> TL;DR Many engineering organizations postpone their most ambitious plans due to cost constraints for so long that they start to believe that it's only money that limits their capabilities. When they eventually get funds, they learn (in a painful way) that scaling up in an efficient...
> TL;DR The older I get, the less patience I have - that applies to people as well, but (fortunately) I keep it healthy -> what irritates me is not someone's lack of knowledge or mistakes made, but rather immature or non-constructive follow-up. What is really...
> TL;DR All systems (according to systems theory - that means computer software, but also board game, biotope or set of objects that are subjects to the basic law of physics) have some underlying "rules of the game" as a foundation - these invariants are used to...
> TL;DR I've asked myself a question - what has made Leonardo da Vinci so exquisite that his fame lasts for half a millenium already - answer (based on biography & known facts) doesn't differ much from what depicts best software (& not only) engineers...
> TL;DR Behind everyone's successes & achievements there are tons of support of others, who stand by her/him - encourage, motivate, assure, challenge - all of that unconditionally, gratuitously, because of pure love. It's easy to get "too used" to that -...
