You do a better job communicating with yourself though?
- dkersten 9y agoSure, but any advantage from that is lost in the fact that I've lost a ton of development time on doing ops tasks, which I don't have time to do properly and don't have time to learn how to do properly. Even bad communication to a competent ops person who does have time to, you know, do their job, and does have time to stay up to date, will result in much better results than if I tried to fit the work into my schedule. For example, in my current work, I could try to figure all the ops stuff out, but I've already got a backlog of months of development tasks for a project that needs to be done asap.
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 9y agoI'd like to argue the advantage is sometimes lost, but not often.
- dkersten 9y agoIn my personal experience, writing complex software with complex infrastructure requirements, I have never had an advantage in not allowing other, more specialised people, to handle concerns outside my core competency (which is software developnent). Other people may be smarter or more efficient than I, or have more time available, or have simpler requirements.
