17 <p>I don’t care how unusual it is as long as you briefly describe the workflow. I’ve been through so many different applications and services and stuck with absolutely none of them that I would even try LibreOffice Calc if you can describe a compelling approach. Offline and open source are big bonuses and I don’t mind spending hours in a config file.</p> <p>I also posted about this on <a href="https://social.nixnet.services/@amolith/104981267386647286" rel="ugc">Mastodon</a> and got some interesting suggestions but I’m curious what people here use.</p>

114 <p>My organization has all kind of problems and there are lots of people trying to fix our processes, methods, tools, organization, roles, strategy, whatever. Nobody seems to have a <del>wholesome</del> holistic vision though. I have trouble coming up with something myself.</p> <p>How would you describe a great environment for software development?</p> <p>I’m interested into what aspects you consider relevant. Is it the tooling? Ex-Googler seem to have a habit of reinventing Google-internal tools, for example. Is it the team or the colleagues? With the right people, I can endure a lot. Is it the strategy? Maybe a visionary at the top (Musk, Jobs, Zuckerberg) makes the difference. Maybe it is just the pay? Netflix CEO apparently believes high salaries for top talent is essential.</p>

185 <p>I got myself taken seriously at work the other day, so I’m writing a draft of… something (in normal times it would have been a handful of lectures or workshop sessions; in these pandemic times we’ll have to see) that I want to use to introduce developers at work to the practice of designing and running distributed systems.</p> <p>In short, work has decided that they want to take the monolith they’ve run for years and cut it into services. My opinion is that we’ve never asked the majority of developers working here to do this, and they’ll have a bad time if they have to figure out how to design and run distributed systems from first principles. I’m putting together some kind of primer they can use to (a) find out what they don’t know, (b) find out where to learn more, and (c) contains some of the lessons we’ve learned the hard way. I want to focus more on the practice of doing these things than the theory; understanding Paxos is very nice, but usually doesn’t help us not get paged at night.</p> <p>I’d like to ask what resources people here know of and can recommend for this? I have a pile of bookmarks, but it’s probable I don’t know of some helpful texts.</p> <p>I’d also like to know if anyone has tried a hand-on approach to these kinds of lessons, and how it went? I had an idea of having people build a small test system that I’d break in various ways (overload it with many queries, or heavy queries, or introduce network splits, or …) but I’m not sure if they’d just get lost in the system setup and we’d never get to more interesting lessons.</p>
