That may not be a bad comparison. A F1 car is really fast, really specialized car, that is also extremely fragile. A Lada may not be too fast but its incredibly versatile and robust even after decades of use. And has…

Except sometimes you get absolutely banger dreams.
Friedman is also not someone anyone should be taking seriously in the year of our lord '26
Also rigor is slow. Looks like a waste of time. What are you optimizing all that code for, it works doesnt it? Dont let perfect be the enemy of good. If it works 80% thats enough, just push it. What is technical debt?

Yes.

Generally yes. The more power one holds in an organization the more safe they are from automation.

Almost everywhere management- whether wearing the skin of agile on top, is still bound to good old school Taylorism. And there is always this complete lack of understanding of the types of work there are and that you…

I am working in a company that never did the whole agile thing and stuck to project management approaches from the last century. I never thought that Id ever miss Safe and crunchy SCUM. I think a lot of those problems…
I have a pet passion for an old simulation language called Dynamo. I think you will find people passionate about LISP and people that care about COBOL, and C is already multiple decades old.
Rent wont pay itself. Switching jobs has costs.
The problem imo tends to be not that there are guard rails in place. It's that they are often build by people that only care about the guard rail part and completely forget that its supposed to be last barrier and that…
