Really? I’ve often seen HR not really understanding it, but engineering leadership ceding the people management aspects of the job to a PM is next level neglect.

That’s probably a fair, if charitable, assessment. But if the IC is having to dig to understand what a manager means then the manager has failed at one of their core duties, being communication channels through the company. If someone isn’

Product managers aren’t (or at least aren’t supposed to be) developer managers and is not what is being discussed in the article.

this is highly dependent on the strike price. Though if you're an early enough employee to be getting a strike price that you can exercise without any worry (on the order of $x00) then you probably should be getting stock directly vs o

That is fair, and an understandable position to have. My thoughts are that if upstream can already see the requests coming from my network to be able to resolve them then I might as well get the benefits of having more visibility and custom

Logs, analytics, and more custom policies vs just the base filtering. I’ve already added the cloudflare for teams through cloudflared and it’s working quite well over the last couple weeks.

Similar to sibling comment, but from a slightly older perspective as I approach 40. It seems that people in my circles just don’t use anything any more, at least that I can see. Most who aren’t really techy or political have abandoned or ne

No, because we’ve made it some anyone with the power and means to make a change is unaffected by it for a nominal fee.

In my opinion masters are not worth it unless someone else is paying for it. The line between scripting and software development means a lot less when you’re writing ETL pipelines. I don’t think you’d have too much to worry with if you’re c

Data Engineering. Honestly I don’t like the name because gathering information, transforming, storing, and making it available for other uses is core to general software engineering, but I digress. Many large companies in non-tech spaces ar

Compared to what percentage in 2019? More clickbait headlines without context. Yes, the answer is in the article, it’s up 38%.

Right. I think you’re correct in very different market expectations. People effected by homelessness would be more interested in layers for protection from weather and I guess wouldn’t care much for how something looks so long as it’s clean

Sample size of just me, but I’ve done some volunteering before and the amount of clothes that people donate is huge. But the chance of people in need actually wearing what was donated was small. The guidance that my group was given was esse

This whole article felt like a great buildup to a good deep writeup, but then it just ended. Very odd.

There’s a great “In Our Time” episode about this area and the archeology going on around it if you’re interested in a listen https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-our-time/id73330895...

There is this whole culture of people who like to “shake up” and intentionally cause distress to others. It is generally targeted at people that they see as “weaker” than them. It is disgusting and endemic to our culture here in the USA.

Just block off times as “reserved” for work, and unapologetically so.

25 minutes and everything starts at either XX:05 or XX:35. People get to be human and do things like use the restroom, get a drink, or just take a breath in between meetings without being flustered and apologizing for being late.

100% agree. Most other things I accept the risk, but cars around kids worry the hell out of me. Drivers don’t pay attention, kids don’t either. Even places with sidewalks, it doesn’t take a lot of things to go wrong before taller SUVs can

Completely agree. It is odd to me how rare this is. I source nearly all of my candidates myself, reaching out to people I’ve worked with previously who would be a good fit, or those with specific expertise called out in their profiles, focu

I think the key is that they come from A background. Few, if any, people have the people skills, technical know how, and domain knowledge to be a PM early in their career. Instead we diluted the PM role so much to allow new grads to have a

In my experience there is only a need for Project Managers when multiple groups that span multiple functions (development, marketing, customer support, etc) are needed to deliver something and they need to work on different cadences. The Pr
