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...
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...

No more slacking and delaying the unevitable, this weekend I've migrated fully to cloud password manager. It doesn't mean I didn't use it before - for over a year I was using KeePass [http://keepass.info/] with DropBox synchronization, but even if I like &...
By some kind of coincidence :) I was doing a short public presentation few days ago & just few days after that I was in a crowd of spectators during few hours long (yikes!) presentation stream. I hope you'll all agree with me - there won't be any...
Few days ago I've found absolutely tremendous post [http://haacked.com/archive/2014/07/28/github-flow-aliases/] about practical Git usage - written by GitHubber & ex-Microsoftie: Phil Haack. The post itself is all about aliases Phil uses in his every-day scenarios. Even if I use...
Yupp, it is now. Because there's an article about that on Forbes [http://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbloomberg/2014/07/11/is-enterprise-architecture-completely-broken/] . Ok, seriously, did anyone have any delusions about EA being alive recently? Let's face the reality - people are struggling to:...
