@gregyoung Many have made a career out of regurgitating other people's intellect. Some have done more damage than others.

@VaughnVernon Wow. All the best.

[iProgrammer @iprogrammeruk]

@VaughnVernon And still you wonder?

[iProgrammer @iprogrammeruk]

@VaughnVernon Really ... you honestly think I'm that invested?

@allenholub Pragmatic

The opposite of trust is controlling-manipulation. Very different working environments and creative problem solving can only flourish in the former?

@Twitter ... any reason why blocking gambling adverts results in a noticable increase in the number of gambling adverts I am fed through my timeline?

@kelseyhightower IME 'complexity' shifts around your systems like a game of whack-a-mole.

I aim to corner it in places it can be managed and then work hard to keep it there.

You are not "entitled to my opinion" whenever facts you don't like are presented to you.

Most digital transformation "failures" end in technological success, but they don't deliver on the initial strategic change that's required to positively affect the business."

Iterative and incremental are different ways of working

Serverless computing: I want to be your friend. You look good, smell nice and make sense but you've gotta stop arbitrarily kicking me in the face whenever you feel like it.

Friends don't do that.

Cloud adoption is a strategic business decision, not a technical one.

Strategise, analyse (qualitative and quantitative), rationalise (re-host, refactor, re-architect, rebuild or replace), plan, upskill etc.

Above all, understand the measurable business outcomes you value.

Microservices...

Smaller image size on disk means quicker to pull from container registry and faster start up time.

This reduces deployment overhead and can improve the resiliency of your application.

I really do struggle to grasp the perceived benefits of the whole Sprint ceremony thing.

Don't really understand why we don't just pick something to work on, crack on with it, then pick the next thing.

Prediction of future trend/bandwagon in the software 'guru' space:

Claiming you don't follow the latest trend by way of 'boosting' the credibility of your public profile.

[iProgrammer @iprogrammeruk]

It's about working in ways that consistently inprove/maintain Quality.

Everything else is just burning oxygen.
