I want to see a comic about the CIA trying to murder Clark Kent and making it look like an accident. Not because they know he's Superman but because he's a really good journalist. Make it a comedy because the CIA assassins can't figure out why their attempts keep failing.

One of my greatest joys in life is when Jeff calls the vet to make an appointment and they ask for his name, and he says, Jeff. Then, they ask for our cat's name, and I watch him gather his strength before he tells them, Baby Jeff.

Product manager: "Why does adding a button take 2 weeks?" Also product manager: "This tech debt does not bring business value, so we have to deprioritize it."Robert Balazsi (@robertbalazsi)Wed, 13 Apr 2022 08:27 +0000
There are plenty of successful engineers and there are some that are brilliant jerks. But there are no brilliant jerk engineers that are also successful. If you think someone will get value from this, consider retweeting the first tweet. Thanks for reading.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
Bonus: Persevering when it's not looking good. Most devs know a brute force approach to a problem works when all else fails. But many don't take that attitude toward career problems. They become easily demoralized or disengaged. So much success in life comes down to grit.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
8. The risks engineers are willing to take Engineers have to make the right tradeoffs, especially on things like tech debt. But tech debt is risky; it could cripple you and your teams. But those same risks, if they go right, could have a massive upside for you and your teams.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
7. Knowing what's worth learning. Learning is important in our industry, but not everything is worth learning. Some patterns, technologies, or techniques will have a disproportionate impact on engineering careers. Knowing what's worth learning is just as important as learning.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
6. A love for lifelong learning. Our industry & the world keeps evolving. If developers don't love learning, they'll struggle. Not learning leads enginers to be stuck in roles or places they hate.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
4. An engineer's self-awareness. Understanding: - how one comes off. - the impact of one's actions. - the way they treat others and make others feel. Those who are self-aware can bounce back from mistakes and succeed long term.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
9. Collaboration with other humans. Tech is cool. We're engineers because we love tech. But if we don't care about ppl, it won't matter how good we are at tech. People run the world, if we don't treat some well, it'll come back to us. They'll preside over our career success.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
5. How humble they are. Ego destroys long-term success. Software engineers make good money; some happen to be really smart. But there is no reason for an ego. There will always be smarter and richer engineers too. Many engineers need to humble themselves a little bit.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
10. A focus on others' needs. Everyone is focused on what they want: Your colleague wants a promotion. Your Boss wants to grow the team. When was the last time you recommended your colleague be promoted? When was the last time you told your bosses-boss what your boss needs?Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
2. How an engineer treats those more junior than them. If an engineer mistreats juniors early on, won't help or guide them, they likely won't treat them better later in their career. In turn, they'll struggle to grow. Our field is complex; much growth comes from teaching othersLouie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
The top 10 predictors of successful engineering careers. I've helped hire 100s of engineers in my 12+ year career. I've managed and steered the careers of multiple engineering teams. Some of these may surprise you, but I am confident they predict career success in our industry.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
1. How an engineer handles grunt work. Engineers love the latest & greatest tech. But the majority of software development is: - gluing together APIs - refactoring shitty code - fixing other people's bugs They'll struggle to get to the exciting stuff if they hate the boring.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000
3. How engineers communicate, especially with non-technical people. Being understood across domains & up the chain means knowing when to use: - plain & simple language - less or more technical detail Invest in this. It is a solid predictor of success for technical people.Louie Bacaj (@LBacaj)Thu, 14 Apr 2022 19:58 +0000

This is entirely true: In addition to being a great guy, @SeamusBlackley is married to my wife’s first cousin once removed. Seamus is the father of the Xbox.

One of the most common questions we receive at Go Time is how to handle schema migrations in Go. In this episode Jon is joined by Mike Fridman and Vojtech Vitek, maintainers of the popular schema migration tool pressly/goose, to discuss techniques, tools, and tips for handling schema migrations.

Update on cloud outage impacting ~400 customers. As part of scheduled maintenance our team ran a script to delete legacy data from a deprecated service. Instead of deleting the data the script erroneously deleted sites, and connected products, users, and 3rd party apps. (1/5)

Three industry experts with different ties to the world of software talk about the latest in software, from Log4j to today, and what remediation looks like for development teams. We discuss update behaviors in the development community and the risks associated with using old code. To round out our debut episode - we talk about the silent industrial revolution and who bears the burden of maintaining open source software.

In 2020 @JeffBezos made $8 million an hour. Every hour. @elonmusk? He made $18 million an hour. Every hour. The idea philanthropy is the answer when you make that much money is absurd.

The Unix shell is pure wizardry. Why shouldn’t it be as easy to write systems programs in Go as it is in the shell? The script library is the secret spell-book that makes this possible.
