Ben’s continuous mantra of observability has resonated strongly with me. I have learned so much more from researching and reflecting on the indexed artifacts of others’ public discourse than from any ephemeral meeting.
Practices that reduce the social status gap of managers above employees are rarely popular.
There are a lot of people out there not trying to do stuff but trying to be someone important. Those people want that separation between them and those they consider lesser.
They are not good managers. But they are legion.
