Developing software as a team is a completely different sport than developing software alone. Developing software alone even happens when people think they work as a team. They just split up the tasks so that each individual contributor own

Good point. I will make the spent effort vs. estimated effort of a feature more transparent. This will show the risk of features getting delayed because no one is working on them. If it is transparent that no one is working on a topic, one

The power goals are really neat. They perfectly show what a user can expect from the sum of smaller technical updates. Kind of similar to user stories but not exactly the same since the power goals become possible after a lot of very differ

I'm not using AI in my personal life everyday. I tried chatgpt several times as a help for writing. But I did not adopt it yet. I guess it wasn't helpful enough.

Their might also be one other statistical artifact: Todays households simply own much more stuff. We possess so many items that we experience the failure of an item much more often than in the past where we owned less stuff.

You are right. The key point is to only point out the error and let the learner come up with the correct solution by himself. This way they have positive feedback. The article mentions that learners can switch between growth and fixed minds

Me and my wife often discuss on how we should help our children to learn. Especially if we see them making errors. Should we tell them that they made an error and show them the correct solution or should we wait to let them notice their er

I see the huge value of this experience. Combining walking with talking is something I often experienced to be very effective for deep conversations. You don't keep eye contact but nevertheless you are very close. For some topics it he

The high interest rates make all the difference. In Germany the interest rate for a house loan quadrupled over the last 2 years. 2 years ago you had to pay 2k per month for a 500k loan, while 0.6k of that was interest. Now 2k per month beca

Maps are great. I spent a lot of time on Google Maps. Looking at places where I have already been in the past or following famous routes I yet have to travel. A map can be very simple but it sparks the imagination and it brings back the emo

Somewhere between college and university I also lost my courage to ask "dump questions". Maybe it was for the same reason you mentioned. I don't want to look ignorant. I'm trying to get that ability back in my work life.

The CEO in the story had no clue what he was doing. But he was facing the same problem everyone has when the outcome of your actions takes time to manifest. Much too often society expects that results change immediately after a change in le

There were some great ideas in the article that would also improve the working conditions in corporate offices. I especially like the curtain behind the chair in order to make sure that no one crosses the video stream accidentally. This is

Reading this article reminded me that we need to think more about the whole lifecylce of a software product. I usually make the mistake developing a product thinking that it will exist forever and new features will be added continuously. Th

I assume they are planning to have some kind of rescue vehicle. But the problem with this will be the traffic jam the stuck vehicle will cause. Not only will all the vehicles behind it need to stop as well, they also need to be rerouted in

Thanks for the summary of the incident. It was helpful to me to see that it took you some time to come to the decision to change your plan. Losing an engine mid flight is not a minor issue. Still you first continued to fly to the original d

I completely agree with that. It really comes down to having the right skills as a QA person. If you don't know how the product is used and only click on some buttons, you will never reach the states in the software that real users rea

Interesting. I was not aware that so many TLDs allow single letter domain names. Since so many single letter domain names are for sale, it really seems to be hard to built a brand with a single letter. I personally think that the most impor
