Absolute pleasure presenting in Singapore and spreading our message of Empathy in Engineering Leadership ❤

Made a thing. It was genuinely work.

@JohnContad Tivoli Road Bakery is nearby, opposite my place. Folks go for the Sourdough. But if you want quality over convenience I would trust @niksko that boy is deep in the bread hole.

Woof. Look, cards on the table.

The past 2 weeks of lockdown have rekindled my old taste for tobacco like never before. Send help.

This thread is almost entirely verbatim applicable to writing good software.

[kenbot @KenScambler]

Being a software architect, so far:

90% cleaning up the adjacent stuff so that good engineering can actually matter.

10% repeating over and over
1. No
2. Not yet
3. Pick the simple one
4. Leave wiggle room for when we know more

"we talk about programming like it is about writing code, but the code ends up being less important than the architecture, and the architecture ends up being less important than social issues."
