btw. #managers don't be shy, let us know what frustrates you during that time when there is little to show in terms of working code 😀

Go on, fess up, my #dev, #architect, and #ops friends... what frustrates 😠 you when you are starting a new greenfield project, small or large?

[Jacek @jacek]

I am thinking of that moment in time when there is no backend, no code, and "the specs are coming soon", but #managers want to show progress in their reports. What do you do? How do you untie this knot? Share your thoughts in the comments. I am really curious to know.

To politicians: run your country in a way that makes everyone want to buy you a pint and not to piss into it.

No AI is a match for a BA armed with a copy of Excel 97.

"AI is a story we computer scientists made up to help us get funding ... It was a pragmatic theater. But now AI has become a fiction that has overtaken its authors. AI is a fantasy, nothing but a story we tell about our code. It is also a cover for sloppy engineering." J. Lanier

When you start a war with another country you also start one with your own.

Democracy is something you need to take good care of. Sometimes you get it wrong, then you get it right, then you get it wrong again, but you do not give up on it just because it's hard. You need to make an effort to protect it, sometimes you have to fight for it.

[Jacek @jacek]

Here's a simple test. Leaders who are able to peacefully pass power to the next leader elected by the people and live without threat of legal action, incarceration, or assassination are probably decent protectors of democracy.

6. Trying to turn the tables and interview me is a sure way of not passing the interview.

[Jacek @jacek]

Tips for interviewees:

1. Be honest about the skills you don't have. If I want to talk to you based on your CV, I already know that your exp. doesn't match the job spec. That's OK, I am seeing potential to upskill you if you can convince me the rest of your skills are solid.

5. Have a pen and a piece of paper ready. Make sure the pen writes. Have a second pen ready just in case.
