I also remember my 10 yo self, designing in Corel draw my own labels and printing them to fit the tape case.
I always ask my self "what is my kid going to explore? My Spotify account?" It's one of the reasons I still collect vinyls and books. Even if I don't really listen or read them from the physical format.
But how can AI help build something that not a single person has the answer to what that is?
Thank you guys
- I have a great time listening to "Software Unscripted" podcast.
- On youtube the channel "code opinion". Although I don't like or use DDD and C#, I think that it has high quality and rewarding content.
- I am currently finishing "A Philosophy of Software Design" by John Ousterhout.
- Regarding articles, I read stuff related to my day's obsession or problem. I can't point you out to one. I mean, what do you need to evaluate/learn?
If you need something more specific topic-wise I am glad to share with you
Technical debt does not increase only for technological reasons but also from business expectations. You can't just "build" a new garden and leave it be. You have to maintain it also. Keeping the system clean and well oiled before building more is important. But these concepts need to be reminded everyday to survive
- Spending a lot of time trying to figure out the business better
- Studying a lot of books, articles, codebases and discussions on software architecture
- Inspire the team and younger devs to avoid complex tools and solutions and stick to the basics
- Balancing everyday and urgent business needs while leading towards a more simple, boring and maintainable system.
- Trying to persuade people to avoid technical debt at all costs
My current one is a Latitude and I have it since 2018. Still works great.
A long time ago, one of them had a problem with the monitor. They came to my office and fixed it on the spot!
On the other hand, my macbook experience was never good. I guess it's luck
