This defense of #statusquo and #incrementalism as the ONLY way forward is jaw-dropping in its complete denial of the #urgency and #scale of #climatechange

#Influential people like this writer are simply unwilling to engage with the catastrophic impacts faced by folks in the #developing world where there is no recourse. For these folks - it is all a #game

"#developing #countries should promote #productivity growth through #exports — use the financial system and other incentives to push companies to sell overseas, and to temporarily subsidize exporters in order to discover national champions."

Adjacent to #crony #capitalism and eventually #authoritarianism. This nation-specific approach ignore people. It is all about "who is the king of the castle."

Can we actually focus on real #development irrespective of #borders?

#Brics nations today jointly called on advanced economies, #global #financial institutions and the private sector to provide “substantial” #climate #finance for #developing countries to adapt to #climatechange . What a hilarious proposition as three ( #China , #India , #Russia ) of these states rank among the #world 's worst polluters. They should start by reducing their own #CO2 emissions instead of asking others to finance the adaptation to what they cause.

Technical Excellence: Lost. Like Atlantis. But with more AI JavaScript.

Once upon a time, engineers knew things. Not Googled things. Crafted things. We automated builds, wrote real tests, treated code like it could explode if mishandled, which it did, and we were proud when it didn't. It was elegant. Precise. Shameful if the customer found a bug. Now? It's fashionable to push broken features into production and call it MVP.

Nowadays, we want to engineer. But we don't get the space for applying our knowledge. Every training is useless when you can't apply it.

"Senior Developers" parade around with 10 years of experience by repeating the same year 10 times. They chant Clean Architecture but build everything in main(). They talk about TDD, then mock their way into oblivion. They don’t refactor, as it's not in the ticket. They don’t simplify, they just make it work. They wait for ticket assignments like robots awaiting firmware updates.
Worse: nobody creates anymore. They consume tools. No one understands the layers. No one asks why.

Agility? Without engineering excellence, it's just theatre. You can't move fast if you don't know how your engine works.

Want to be agile? Build engineers who:
* Understand architecture beyond drawing hexagons.
* Write tests that assert behaviour, not just lines executed.
* Know the cost of a dependency.
* Automate not for fun, but for resilience.
* Take responsibility before being told to.
* Stop chasing tools & Start understanding systems.
* Build things that work, not just compile.

Technical excellence is not a luxury. It's the foundation. And without it, you're not building software. You're just decorating the Titanic.

Agility without engineering is chaos in a hoodie.

Just hung up w/ my (new-to-me) film processor in the midwest. Turns out my rolls weren't lost, they were waiting for B&W chemicals(!) Somebody didn't label their film & it polluted their whole system, took 7 weeks to get it cleaned up, restocked. (She said they wash every roll now, to be safe.) Apparently some came out good she said, on the roll she looked at(!) My first rolls shooting medium format - wooHOO ~
