If you demand that people control something they can't control, then expect them to control something else. If the mandate is "No Bugs!" without any social or technical change, then expect a response like "no *reported* bugs".

I have previously worked in an architecture team and it was great. AND...

Have you seen @emilybache.com's latest video? This week, we're discussing GOOD architecture. 👇

This week @emilybache.com is talking to us about the difference between DESIGN and ARCHITECTURE. How they're different to one another, and why that is a GOOD THING. Join Emily tomorrow from 7pm (UK) on Modern Software Engineering.

Good architecture isn’t about getting it right first time, it's about being able to adapt and change safely. Maintaining a vision and direction, even as we change the target we are aiming for.

What's one thing you should never say to a software engineer at 5pm on a work day? 😬

As engineers, our job remains fundamentally anchored in two core activities: managing complexity and optimizing for learning. New AI tools are seductive, frictionless, and incredibly convenient, but we must apply them strategically to augment these engineering skills. 🧵 1/6

We talk a lot about developer productivity, but not enough about developer focus. What practices have helped your teams stay effective without burning out under pressure to deliver faster?

AI programming’s worrying stat: 70% of developers trust the output. We need an intervention. New research from DORA confirms AI is ubiquitous. 95% of developers rely on it, and 80% report productivity gains. But there is a massive and dangerous disconnect. 🧵 1/5

What does the latest DORA report reveal about AI-assisted software development? In this video, I react to some of the findings and explore the impact of AI, AI coding assistants and tools on software development. On @modernswe.bsky.social now ➡️ youtu.be/CoGO6s7bS3A
