A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

I genuinely think some people do not want to look this in the eye/think about it because it is so awful. We wrote what I thought was a pretty eye-opening story about all this and I was surprised by the lack of engagement tbh

One missing piece is that a total revolution has *not* occurred in the evolution of how people decide _what_ software features or solutions to build, which was always a social and not technical problem, and the conditions of which have been in steady and then increasing deterioration for decades.

Part of the disconnect is of course that techbros insist that a total revolution in the way that software is made is taking place, but anyone who uses software can observe that software continues to suck more than ever before

Write in present tense, whenever possible. Reasons: * Brevity. * Consistency. * Clarity. I was taught this back when I wrote tech manuals. "When you click on GO, a dialog box will appear." WHEN will it appear? Immediately? Or sometime before the sun goes nova?" #AmEditing

Something I often encounter when working with technical leaders is the following worry: "My senior engineers know more than I do!" People worry that they're losing touch with the pace of change in technology.

I'm a tech lead, but my senior devs have better technical skills. Am I losing my edge?

\"I'm nowhere near as good technically as the senior devs in my team.\"

Focus on delivering value NOW, not on future possibilities. Defer anything that isn't immediately needed. This reduces code, cost & complexity. #agile #lean #software #value
