I would argue that a good process always has a good self correction mechanism built in. This way, the work done by a "low quality" software developer (this includes almost all of u…

Interesting idea but what exactly is a dev test for you? And when does it qualify as a ci test?

I had quiet a ride myself with that topic. For years my opinion was, that I dont want to, as the auther here suggests as well, go with tdd as long as I dont know exactly what I nee…

I would go a step further and dont let juniors use LLMs for code generation. The purpose and your role as a junior is to not only work but also to learn. When using genrated code, …

Today, if someone uses LLMs for code generation, he/she will probably question the generated code and will put his own judgement above it. I am curious how fast that will change, e…

Are you ready to find out?! :D

You should make them input the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42

I myself just get to drink some water. If its possible I would highly recommend getting some sunlight right at the start of your day and what also helped me in the past (I know, so…

What is it, that sparks your interest in industrial automation? I would recommend on focusing on the stuff you want to instead of focusing what you dont want to do. So dont think a…

As some others suggested I would also recommend to try to make an experiment. Identify one part of your software suite you think you can build, operate and do the maintenance for. …

We develop software for the german energy market (just the economic parts of it). If you are interested, look the following (we germans loooove rules and specifications :D) https:/…

I am aware that this might spark some discussions ;) Daring thesis: if you develop an assamble of old school desktop applications that work together via im- and exports and dont us…
