Over the years, I am convinced that agile process falls into the bullshit jobs category. At one point of time I stared asking a routine question, if we finish all of this work by next week, how long it would take for this to go to productio

At the end it is very inspiring to learn that Andre chose tennis on his own to become the number one on his own terms. But somehow it feels very ironic that he chose what he was already good at! Perhaps his father saved him a lot of time

Try strategizing in a mid-sized non technical mid-sized company. Here is where engineers are treated like mechanics at pep boys. You are either ignored or put to your place about the kind of work your are supposed to do, with the exceptio

I am wondering if Aditya didn't respond the way he did (using corporate lawyer's langauge), Greg would have not reached to this conclusion? I am a bit surprised by the entitlement he was showing. Why would anyone use those words

When I was kid, I remember my parents yelling at me playing 'useless' games at the end of the street with my 'good for nothing' friends. When I was a teen, I remember them not liking me watching "too much" of T

As a side note, Microsoft login echo system sucks big time in the context of office. You have no idea which URL to use to login to office 365. Between login/logout/timeout/other office apps/personal accounts/busin

I used to work in a factory floor. Having a job at this factory used to be one of the nice things in the town. For the fear of being driven to work too much, workers refused to increase the thru-put beyond a union limit. They used that as a

Thank you for writing this. The culture of one software developer deriding on other software developer work by badmouthing his/her work and bragging about how firing the developer solved the problem might have a place in politics but

While I understand that no one could have gotten to a better conclusion I find it a very distasteful commentary. So Rick knew everything about the project, while everyone is simply making a living off his work all those months/years, s

Tried the hello world demo. When I delete the text it won't remove the first typed character from the label. I thought one of the advantages of React/Angular/Vue frameworks is their support for event modifiers, cross-browser
