Here are a few links to get your week going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Something I&#8217;ve been thinking about a lot myself amidst the insurgence of Developer\/Engineer Productivity teams (and numerous posts on linkedin). <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@alexherweyer\/what-is-developer-productivity-4c58ec1b903e\">What Is Developer Productivity?<\/a> explores this topic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a not-so-surprising article (for me, at least), a study showed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techtarget.com\/searchhrsoftware\/news\/365531979\/Nearly-40-of-software-engineers-will-only-work-remotely\">Nearly 40% of software engineers will only work remotely<\/a>. Now to get more of the industry CEOs to read this article&#8230;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I&#8217;ve been reading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/en\/book\/show\/53127025-the-advice-trap\">The Advice Trap<\/a> by Michael Bungay Stanier (author of The Coaching Habit). It&#8217;s a great sequel, and extremely practical. If you lead via coaching, I highly recommend this.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I bought a new laptop this week. I ran linux on my desktop for ~5 years before defaulting to using my work Macbook pro and my phone. I was going to build a new desktop machine, but decided to try a laptop from System 76. They specialize in linux laptops, and I <em>mostly<\/em> love my new <a href=\"https:\/\/system76.com\/laptops\/pangolin\">Pangolin<\/a>. It currently has a weird hardware issue with the power supply, but hopefully I&#8217;m back here next week to rave about their support.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally (for the locals), I had a chance to catch up with an old friend last night at the <a href=\"https:\/\/sidehustletaps.com\/\">Side Hustle Taproom<\/a> in Kirkland (with more locations coming). Great idea for a place to showcase local beers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for reading &#8211; see you next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I may have actually had a pretty good week.
