Do you learn dancing from books too? I recommend finding a class that speaks to you. A good teacher will make you get the right focus and postures.

The same way you can do yoga and think about lifting weights!

When top leaders are in the same open plan: How inviting is it to come on over and chat up? It's wide open to misinterpretations and unintended skip-levels.

What makes your arguments weak, isn't the slightly condescending tone or tonedeaf, endless rhetorics about other peoples lives and experiences. No, it's the stunning absence of facts and evidences.

How about 3,5 (72%) less time having face-to-face interactions with each other in the open-plan office: https://www.managers.org.uk/knowledge-and-insights/article/t... Would it kill you to just do a search? https

In your first post above, you claim open office doesn't work for you , since you need confidential meetings and then would need to be away from open plan anyway. This is asinine reasoning, as your phoning and meetings would disrupt ev

Have you considered that you may be sensitive? Most people don't give a fuck, but you do? If so, there's only one route: Start ignoring people. Don't offer advice until asked for. Never give full answers, only pointers. You&#

Honestly, open offices is a huge win for managers because of the lower productivity from the workers. It makes it harder to collaborate and find other solutions than those handed down from the above. It's just enough distraction and

On year-by-year basis you're looking at noise. On decade basis there's mostly steady acceleration of CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere: https://gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/gl_gr.html Lower growth may als

Still there are better and worse ways to identify and present failure. A modal often being worse for instance.

That's when it get outright toxic. What is much more common is just all the gaps between solid silo walls.

So Libertarianism is a failed ideal like Communism? People will do with what they own, wether it be land or its inhabitants.

A fine way to keep the poor poor is teaching them to identify as victims and not learn math. There are always bad ideas that need to be exposed for what they are.

DevOps isn't the norm outside FAANG. It's not Agile or DevOps just because someone says it is.

You are not the customer though, but coworkers, and most probably in different departments with opposite goals and priorities. People from dev regard this as "dev bubble" = your last 15 years of experience. Not a joke.

Not within the confines of agile scrum sprints and multiple attached rituals. Senior sysadmins also would refuse to do the free labour thing.

I think the other side of your story is missing, and there's no account of capabilities, priorities or even vendor stories. Why would you not know reasons for delay. That gap is the real problem. If it truly was a competence issue, how

Often the root cause is in dev code without proper logging and documentation = dev problem. The only way for Ops to troubleshoot might be to sniff the network and make educated guesses, if it's recurring. All that extra work costs much

Exceptions are appropriate if you create unique application errors or kill your app with it.

Why would a user-friendly system need error messages in the first place? The modal dialog breaks UX spectacularly. Even logs should have messages that actually are intuitive to follow.

Or, why would you ever consider doing X at all? Ok, thanks for being unhelpful.

Improving compiler errors can go a long way. When even line numbers are missing, simple syntax errors can generate new errors and mind numbing troubleshooting.

This is where leadership comes in, to make clear division of responsibilities. You're doing everyone a disfavour giving out full answers or not demanding some homework first, and often, it's really an ego-issue.

There is an organizational gap. It's mostly everywhere, and why only DevOps can bridge that gap. It's caused by missing technical leadership. So anything said before that happens, and it'll happen for you partly especially at

Help offered, but still radio silence. Anyways, Ops have their own responsibilities and none of the core ones are centered on devs.

The gap is a leadership problem, someone is accountable for all the "shipping". It's a made by divide and conquer strategies (more "abstraction" at higher level). But keep blaming the war on peons.

It speaks volumes Ops are even bothering with monitoring those "logs".. But people get ousted for demanding better!

It's fully reasonable to solve the halting problem of your black box application.

That was a passing fad 15 years ago. It didn't work out well when actual expenses got passed around.
