Listened to Upstream Podcast - Open and developer culture: What happened to people when software went open? | RSS.com
Post details
Will empathy help make our software development teams better? In this week’s episode of the Upstream podcast, Luis Villa sits with Kellan Elliot-McCrea of Adobe and Adam Jacon, CEO of System Initiative. Should software development teams be a team sport or an orchestra rather than a factory? How should we handle generational changes within software development teams?. Why do large software companies give their employees free breakfast? Get answers to these questions and enjoy some fun anecdotes about mastering craps when stuck in Las Vegas.

Apple saying they “pay developers” billions each year is like a bank saying they “pay” people that use their ATM. It’s our money! From paying customers! All Apple did was carry the bag from one place to another, and, in the process, dip their greedy fingers in it. Apple does not *pay* us for anything. They give us our own money after extracting a tax.

We spend roughly 10x as much time reading code as we do writing it. A tool or technique that makes you twice as "productive" at writing code *at best* makes you 5% more productive over all. Making your code easier to understand will have 10x the impact. But that doesn't sell tools or put developers out of work, so you won't be reading about it in Forbes.

40 straight years of supposed innovators whining like absolute babies at the faintest hint of government oversight, promising just endless Utopias if we embrace just two choices: either zero oversight at all, or shitty regulations they get to write that coddle the biggest and wealthiest

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me Maybe Goals and Constraints changed without the teams knowledge? Or they might have been left owning all the issues? Or they might have discovered a resource/requirements mismatch? I guess it depends how they got shafted, and who you're trying to tell.

Out of interest, which functionality are you thinking? Microformats2? Micropub? POSSE? I think we've got some with Microformats2 markup somewhere 🤔

Game industry job postings are the weirdest, worst things. “Requirements: Must be able to help our game achieve GOTY status” like uh. Okay? I’ll put that skill on my resume next to “able to win the lottery” and “can release a game before it will have started production”

Grrrrr! Trying to get payment from a US vendor. Their form wouldn't submit unless I had a US phone number. Thank fuck for Google Voice! Oh, and it's a good thing that I remembered "my" zip code is 90210. Why don't Americans accept that the rest of the world exists? (Rhetorical question. Doesn't actually require you to explain anything.)

If I end up leaving tech, it's 100% going to be the people that does it. And the industry as a whole, but I definitely stay in spite of that. I'll probably leave when I realize that the majority of tech will use every and any in favor of capitalism (and their own platform). (https://jacky.wtf/2023/5/aEyb)
