Software is not a craft. Nor is it an art. Nor is it engineering, or architecture, or anything we've ever before. I now have words for what development is: the practice of symmathesy. [medium.com]

1. Hire awesome people. 2. Teach them your stack. It boggles my mind when I hear of companies that dismiss amazing candidates because they don’t have an exact recipe of knowledge and experience.

@reverentgeek welcome to the 1990s MSFT shop with its 19th-century view of human intelligence—also, i daresay that teaching stacks is byproduct of open-source, academic culture transformed into a corporate setting—most IT shops (especially MSFT ones) do not have the cultural heritage

Something I have learned over many jobs: there’s no perfect job. No one joins a company, looks around at the team, the management, the infrastructure, the business, and says, “This is perfect. Everything is fine.” (Why would a company that is perfect have a need to hire anyone?)

@rachelnabors When a company culture directs you to practice behaviors on a daily basis that one is not allowed to reveal in a public, professional setting, that company may have an embarrassing definition of “perfection.”

“Learning style is about how you like to learn, not how you learn best. Although you might enjoy listening or doing, there's no compelling evidence you learn better that way. Sometimes we learn more when we’re out of our comfort zone.” — @AdamMGrant⁩ [theatlantic.com]

I have more admiration for people in tech who visibly demonstrate interest in social issues than for those whose sole interest seems to be tech itself. The latter group's singular focus indicates a lack of understanding that tech exists to serve humans, not the other way around.

@soniagupta504 deeper still, the tech contains theories that reflect toxic traditions in society: the lowest hanging fruit is the “beauty” of imperative programming (which is about the aesthetics of central control, debilitating not-invented-here sickness: imperative => imperial)💂
