A few weeks ago, we (myself & my two friends - Tomek & Wojtek, as a part of a community called CTO Morning Coffee) hosted an online X Spaces session on Domain-Driven Design (DDD). To be clear, this wasn't supposed to be an intro session; quite the contrary....
Many people who've never seen high-performing teams in action (I mean genuinely high-performing, not just the ones who self-claim they are ...), assume that all that you need to form such a team is: * assign them a mission (they could identify with) * grant them a sufficient level of autonomy...
I've used many personality assessment methods & tools in the past. Gallup SF, Transactional Analysis, OCEAN - that sort of stuff (& more). I'm not a professional behavioral psychologist (of course), but I thought nothing would surprise me regarding the qualification of personality types. Yet, I&...
It's one of the lessons I've learned the hard way: there's no other resource valuable more than your own time. Why so? * it's hard-capped * it's not transferable (my time isn't directly exchangeable with your time, at least in...
I bet that nearly everyone in the software-crafting industry has heard about YAGNI [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_aren%27t_gonna_need_it] ("You Ain't Gonna Need It") principle. But what about TAGRI? TAGRI (which is nearly as old as YAGNI) stands for "They...

I took my time, but I didn't want to rush things too much: reviewing OSes takes some time & it's quite easy to state a premature opinion that may not reflect the reality. Anyway, I'M READY to share with you my opinion on two...
Private advertisement mode ON On 11th of Dec I'll be presenting some introductory stuff about Domain Driven Design at WG.NET [http://www.wg.net.pl/] (Meetup event link is here [http://www.meetup.com/WG-NET/events/219065356/]). If you were always wondering what's the DDD...
> "Yes, that was painful, but we've just created a tool for that. Rapid Development FTW." These words make me shiver. There was a problem / time-consuming activity / knowledge gap & we've created a tool to fix / solve / simplify or just speed things up. It...
You can find part I here [https://no-kill-switch.ghost.io/your-job-rocks-my-job-sucks-part-i/]. Let's sync the summary of part I: 1. your job (as a programmer) sucks 2. but we've got the culprits: management, technology, users, management & management There's a nice summary-word for that: it&...
