@japborst @rhein_wein Because upon the $1B Atlassian's acquisition, all my (vested) advisory shares were voided by DX and not paid out. I was told it was an honest mistake. Except it wasn't. I will never do business with the CEO ever again. (I was not the only such advisor with this story)

Fuck it, we just made Fizzy completely free. The open source installable version was always free, but the SaaS version was pay. No more. Basecamp and HEY's largess will subsidize Fizzy for all. So go grab your account at Fizzy.do. It's Kanban the way it should be, not the way it has been. Fresh, fun, light, fast, and perfect for working with agents, too. An official CLI is coming soon as well. Stay tuned for that. The native iOS app should be out once Apple approves it (it's in approval right now...). Android is already out, you can get it on the Play store. (and BTW if you were a paying customer, you will no longer be charged moving forward)

Last year Mark Russinovich and I wrote a paper on how Software Engineering will redefine the profession, and how early in career engineers may see an “AI Drag,” while seniors will see a significant boost. This paper was published today in the Communications of the ACM, Association for Computing Machinery @TheOfficialACM

There’s got to be something better than LinkedIn. It’s become a cesspit.

Happy Monday! Remember: The goal isn’t to ship faster. It’s to ship predictably, with calm, and with quality you can defend.

Never realised how much Penguin Lore I needed. That penguin’s on a solo mission to clear his head. Same.

Thursday challenge: Instead of just the usual ‘good job’ shout-out, share a quirky team win. Maybe someone finally fixed that ancient bug no one thought was fixable, or a teammate brought in legendary snacks that saved the day. Celebrate the fun wins too!”

Wednesday thought: In your 1:1s, try asking: ‘With everything changing, what’s one thing you’d love to learn or lean into right now that excites you?’

A good leader’s heuristic: If you’re feeling the chaos, start by bringing one piece of clarity. Simplify a decision, untangle a process, or just let your team know what’s not changing today. One clear step cuts through a lot of noise.

Good morning. If you’re on here feeling the stress, remember: you don’t have to fix everything today. Just pick one lever to pull this morning and let that be enough.

12. Low performance is rarely a surprise. If you’re suddenly shocked, you’ve been avoiding hard conversations.

11. Be relentlessly kind and relentlessly specific. Say the thing, name the impact, agree the next behaviour.

I’ve done this job at a few altitudes now - IC, tech lead, startup CTO, manager, director. Over time you stop collecting tips and start collecting heuristics. The kind you reach for when things are messy and the clock is ticking. Im gonna share my favourites:
