Ep. 1: How heroes kill culture by Always an Engineer

Post details
In this episode, Asim Razzaq defines what is toxic heroism in the field of software engineering. Many engineers do not see this trait, and for Asim, it is important that he shows how this trait manifests and how it could affect the performance and output of a company on a long-term basis. [01:37] Problem of Hero Hailing Engineers [02:50] Why it gets Toxic [03:17] Asim’s Experience [07:18] Solution Going Against Morale While it is important to credit engineers for all the daily tasks and solutions they provide for companies, it is still important to check in on them and see if these little success stories aren’t going to their head. When someone is afflicted by a “toxic hero” state of mind, they’d often take shortcuts or rely on small and temporary wins, these achievements are materialized externally to a point that how they think is always right. This, in return, creates a bad environment for colleagues who may be discouraged to work as a team or craft new ideas to solutions, which may not be aligned with the aforementioned “hero's” point of view. Taking a Step Back When you feel like these wins are getting to your head or if you notice that your colleagues are no longer contributing ideas to your group huddles, then it is definitely time to take a self-evaluation on whether or not you are creating a toxic hero environment for your workplace. The sooner you identify these signs, the better it is to help reconnect with your team. Got questions or suggestions for future episodes? Just visit www.alwaysanengineer.org

If you see the AGPL licenses on my free and open source work and you think “damn you, I can’t use this to enrich myself or my corporation without sharing back what I’ve built on top of what you’ve freely shared and thus contribute to cultivating a healthy commons where others might enjoy the same benefits from my work that I want to obtain from yours” (a) you really have long-winded thoughts and (b) well, you already see the flaw in your reasoning. #foss #licenses #freedom #copyleft #gpl

I've been laid off once before in 2017 but this time has been such a different experience that I honestly don’t wish this on even some of my enemies. But also, I feel like I'm doing pretty okay given the circumstances, which feels like I have reached some new level of maturing.

"De-anonymising data is surprisingly easy: if you know Tony Blair’s date of birth (a matter of public record) and the two dates during his term in office in which he was treated for a heart condition (ditto), you can pick him out of any “anonymised” pool of NHS data in seconds, and then discover all those facts about his health that aren’t a matter of public record... Dr Ben Goldacre and his team at Oxford created OpenSAFELY, a “Trusted Research Environment” that allows researchers to write programs that analyse NHS data in situ. These programs would be dispatched to run against the data held by NHS trusts, and then the system would return the results to the researchers without ever letting them handle the data – which never left the trusts’ own servers." https://goodlawproject.org/cory-doctorow-health-data-it-isnt-just-palantir-or-bust/ #dataProtection #research #NHS #privacy PS #Palantir, ... is literally named after an evil, all-seeing magic talisman employed by the principal villain of Lord of the Rings (“Sauron, are we the baddies?”)

@aral@mastodon.ar.al not just there. I’ve been in ISO standardization committees that were rendered pointless because of company interference. They don’t want to implement anything they don’t already do, which in this case wasn’t a lot, and would only agree on the lowest common denominator. I got out as quick as I could.

the problem with celebrating girl bosses is at the end of the day you are celebrating bosses. society oriented around hierarchy is not feminist because it requires inequality. let's think about this! the problem with patriarchy is not that some humans are born with dicks. the problem is structuring society around the unequal distribution of power. placing women within that architecture doesn't level it. but re-orienting around lateral movement building & collective organizing can! imo!

Anyone skeptical about the power of #unions and what they can do for workers (and remember; if you don't own the means of production, you are a worker) should check out Iceland with its 92.2% participation. Today three large unions, that collectively have around 1/5th of the nation as members, agreed to terms with industry representatives and the government for all kinds of workers benefits for the next four years. Unions work, as long as people join them. https://www.ruv.is/frettir/innlent/2024-03-07-langtimasamningur-til-fjogurra-ara-undirritadur-406805
