this goes both ways. Many programmers are overly arrogant, but often (at least here) it's also managers not trusting programmers
-
-
-
as a manager-programmer, one problem is that us programmers have an elaborate script to explain away any issues.
-
true, but it is also extremely difficult to explain why things like testing and refactoring are important. Mutual trust is necessary
-
absolutely. At
@tildeio I pretty much accept any requests to pay down technical debt, and am not really talking about that. -
there's always like 50% kernel of truth in what we're saying, 50% elaborate excuse for prioritizing poorly.
-
prioritization can come in many forms, but poor prioritization slows down teams while good refactoring speeds them up.
-
refactoring doesn't mean "I'm rewriting this as a microservice. I'll ship it when it's ready"
-
i've made those kinds of mistakes myself. Better to develop more incrementally and learning along the way.

Damn right! Does it also includes stopping arrogant programmers from being cool about how many recruiters they refused this time?
-
only when recruiters stop spamming people with wrong names, hyperboles and unclear job descriptions.
-
some recruiters are professional and high quality, but that field could use some best practices for sure.
-
no doubt, i've encountered good recruiters too.

@smathy I'd unshift relationships or communication to that stack. Devs are bad at all those things but communication is the worst.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

; thx so much. The more programmers get & spread this, the better off we'll all be.
