"Be humble, for the worst thing in the world is of the same stuff as you; be confident, for the stars are of the same stuff as you." ~ Nikolaj Velimirovic (1916) “Serbia in Light and Darkness”

@EzProgramming @TelmoPestana My experience too. I continue to say it: the main advantage of TDD (RG-Ref) is the code it produces, not the tests.

@TelmoPestana Slower. And almost always resulting in either modifying code or insufficient tests.

After several years of training teams and working with my own teams I am convinced that, for any product larger than a POC, writing tests first is faster than writing no tests.

This comment on instagram with @AleksLeVO is very cool

@EngGuidebook Although it greatly improved in the last decade, the state of IaC/CDK, serverless and other orchestration and deployment solutions are still pretty much still looking for their model solution to the platform problem. 2/2

@EngGuidebook The problem of not having no product manager is poor alignment on client needs. Especially that "no PM" is very often associated with "no service designer either". Having built those, good platform tools are probably among the hardest to get the API and UI right. 1/..

A reason engineers are often drawn to working on platform teams. Especially if on product teams engineers feel like they don't have much input in influencing the team direction / tactics. From The Software Engineer's Guidebook: Chapter 5: (Thriving in Different Environments)

@DocOnDev My biggest red flag in hiring is someone that says "it's easy, I've already done it." Yet, I've seen many managers fall for it. By itself, the sentence isn't bad, but the attitude that underlines it is. Don't assume your new job will be the same as the last one. It will not be.

When you recruit "top talent" and they fall short of expectations after a year, shouldn't you reflect, "How did our actions impact them?" #leadership

I greatly enjoyed speaking with @SonnyBunch about the series we are doing with @DCOfficial Please give the story a listen. You can learn more here x.com/DCOfficial/sta…

@FelipeBudinich Agree. And I've never seen black or white IP addresses, but blocked or allowed ones all the time. And honestly, if it's a big effort for your company to rename a branch, you are in big trouble. That's the kind of change that exposes how bad you are to create proper abstraction.

@ninoles I don't care about the politics of the "debate" but "main" is so much better because it describes a part of a distributed system, literally there is no "master" branch.

Oh wow! Talk about crocodile tears! What mistreatment, what dictature they were under! Having to type main instead of master! Having to use allow-list instead of whitelist! Now they can go back in peace to their slavery, their heads well buried into the sand by their own masters.

@DocOnDev Yes, some systems can be an obstacle, but we are part of such systems (elsewhere they couldn't affect us) and so have the power to change them. 2/2

@DocOnDev According to me, here are the systems that take people's power away: - their ignorance - their fears (especially of changes) - their disdain of discomfort - their arrogance - their disengagement - their pessimism 1/..

A good manager does their best to empower their people within the system. A great manager does their best to dismantle any system that takes people's power away in the first place. #leadership #autonomy

'DC Heroes United' Lets Viewers Decide Justice League's Fate thewrap.com/dc-heroes-unit…

That's really me voicing Superman in this DC Heroes United animated series. Still feels unreal.

@SergioRocks You're confusing founders and salesmen.

My goal as a Fractional CTO is to enable Founders to use their time on the things that move the needle for their business: - Focus on distribution - Speak with clients - Sit on back-to-back sales meetings My job is to make sure that the tech side of the house is in order, and that the product supports the business.

@rakyll There is a fun part in cleaning up and fixing things and bringing a dead corpse back to life when everyone was thinking nothing can be done. But it is also way more exhausting and it's really brutal when you get cancelled after that.

The early stage of a project is always the best place to be 🔥 No wonder why some people are addicted to starting companies.

@0xglitchbyte Looks like you have mixed up your pointers again, or is that a buffer overrun? You never know...

Fixed that for you

So, you see, everyone would agree that the above is true. There is no better way to do software, nothing to discover. Stop messing around. Agile is dead. #NotMyAgile 6/6

The plan is the plan. Plans should not be changed. Changing the plan is just a way to cheat the client. You get lost without a plan. Follow the plan, no matter what. 5/..

This post is for @NotMyAgile for asking them to stop spreading this Agile cult ideology. Agile is dead, don't you know? 1/..
