> you probably don’t have access to half of what you need to in order to fix any given problem I’ve found this to be one of my largest day-to-day problems even in a relatively functional organisation. Particularly when it involves something I can’t run on my own machine, like an AWS service. In a previous role I often found myself constructing elaborate hypotheses about what was going on inside systems I couldn’t see into. I’d then need to try to verify it with someone on another team, in another timezone, who had the access but not necessarily the development background. Which usually meant getting on a screen share and asking them to click various things I wasn’t allowed to. If I was wrong, back to the drawing board and start again.
