Before you start learning about any modern ways of working, learn about the cynefin framework. Understanding why the rules apply to software development are wrong is the starting point of learning what the correct rules of the game are. #cynefin #softwaredelivery #continouslearning #notdeterministic

Anyone I've spoken with about my approach to leading digital transformation will have heard me talk about Dave Snowden's Cynefin framework and how I apply it in governance design, decision making, software architecture and delivery approaches. This is an excellent piece by Dave Farley, applying the framework to explain why software development is inherently a complex system, and why it needs to be managed as such. Attempting to apply a singular approach to all digital and technology initiatives might be one of the riskiest choices for those undertaking transformation. I know Dave Snowden is quick to call out those applying context free recipes. This video isn't prescribing any particular approach, but using Cynefin would help to determine whether the behaviours are appropriate. Complex systems require enabling constraints (think Governance), action that is consistent with "Probe-Sense-Respond" (doing is as important as conceptual planning or design) and Emergent Practice requires a continuous learning mindset. Would love to hear other opinions.

Projections say that there will (only) be 28.7 million software developers in the world by 2024. What does that mean for everyone else with an idea or a compelling need that can be solved only with tech? Wait for scarce IT talent? Compromise with what's available off the shelf? Some problems are too thorny to tolerate and some ideas too insistent to wait. That's why we #gonocode #nocode #nocodelowcode #nocodeplatform #nocodetools

Communication is very context-dependent. The 𝐶𝑦𝑛𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑛 framework gives context to different systems. Cynefin (𝑘𝑢ℎ-𝑁𝐸-𝑣𝑖𝑛) is perhaps like 𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑎𝑤𝑎𝑒𝑤𝑎𝑒 - it gives us a place to stand.

Feeling like your inbox is a never-ending support ticket queue? (We've all been there.) At Caxy, we value collaboration, not constant firefighting. Our senior developers are coding masters, not glorified tech support. ✨ Here's the deal: Focus on what you do best: Building innovative solutions, not answering basic questions. Empowered team: We invest in training and resources so everyone thrives. Collaboration, not chaos: We foster a supportive environment where everyone contributes. Are you a senior developer ready to break free from the support cycle and dive into impactful projects? Join our team! https://lnkd.in/gMgKKhar #seniordevelopers #collaboration #caxypromise #workyoulove #codewizard

You put in the hours. You make an effort. You document. You explain. You fix. You improve. Finally, you reach the promised land of no open bugs, believing you have all your bases covered. But legacy code, like the ideal life partner, always finds new kinky ways to surprise you and make your mornings more emotional. We will defeat you! #CodingLife #LegacyCode #DevChallenges #BugHunting #TechHumor #SoftwareDevelopment #CleanCode #DeveloperLife #TechPerseverance #InnovationInCode

After a little break, I have another Kraken CI version, 1.7. This one includes support for Radicle, https://radicle.xyz, a peer-to-peer code collaboration stack. This release also provides support for notifications to Discord channels. More in this blog post: https://lnkd.in/gy9ZUatq #cicd #devops #testing #krakenci #radicle #discord

📢 Revealing now. Brilliantly! Finer Circle is for you, if you want to: 👉 https://bit.ly/TTTFC Mahesh Chikane talked about those hurdles that slow down or create various blockers for some of us in the way of our holistic career growth in software testing space. Us? Yes, I am talking about the community of the software testers, globally. Now he is revealing a uniquely and thoughtfully designed #product "Finer Circle" that The Test Tribe is offering to solve that problem of hurdles and blockers. Tune in to know WIIFU 😎 (What's in it for us)! #thetesttribe #ToRiseBeyond #community #problemsolving

I'm tired of hearing about how the golden age of the Polish programmer ended up. Every day I see how bad it is. But my questions are: Was all this hassle manageable? Didn't we just change big money for pennies by letting not interested people be a part of this amazing society? Every week I'm doing 10+ interviews and I see that the level I'm asking is not there. We lowered the bar and we are not expecting anything from candidates. We just sell bodies to US companies and each body is worth the same. We made people think that IT is a place where they can earn money without being interested in the topic. And we failed. Now, we need to fix it. Companies need to think about how to improve their outcome with the current size of the team not just push for more selling more Devs in US. If not, we won't be able to compete in the next 10 years. Build product and skills not a mass.
