It’s Friday, and it’s time to share five things I thought were interesting this week.
- I spent last weekend at DefCon (where thankfully, I did not pick up the infamous “Covid Badge”). I did, however, pick up a custom add-on to the DefCon electronic badge from my old colleague, Kevin – and it’s awesome.
- A lot of head-nodding in this article on How Scrum Masters (and Managers) Go Astray By Committing to Plans (and reminded me a lot of my thinking on the topic)
- IEEE has a new update to their Developer Productivity series: Developer Productivity for Humans, Part 7: Software Quality that’s worth a read,
- Buried in this story on The shortest, strangest engineering interview I’ve ever done are a lot of good ideas on interviewing – as well as a few laughs.
- Finally, I read this article on How to Plan Team Re-Organization – which I like a lot because it matches strongly with the way I like to think about these things.
That’s all for this week – I’ll try again in seven days or so.
