David Good in the Wandering Book
It has been a while since David Good wrote his entry in The Wandering Book and I am the sole culprit of not sharing my ideas here on it. I have been caught up with many different things lately that prevented me from writing my thoughts about his entry down. David’s entry starts by giving [...]
Kerry Buckley in the Wandering Book
In the most recent entry of The Wandering Book, Kerry Buckley gives us a glimpse of his career and how he realised that he cared about code and the way he codes. What I personally like about his story is the message Kerry sends (indirectly) to the developers out there who are not working in [...]
Adewale Oshineye in the Wandering Book
It has been quite a while since the last entry to The Wandering Book has been made, but finally we have it! This time Adewale Oshineye, co-author (with Dave Hoover) of Apprenticeship Patterns gives us a gentle push as a community. What have you made recently? He rightly asks us what we have made, what [...]
Tuesday Talks now open to all
In the spirit of sharing we are opening up our regular Tuesday Talks to the broader community. At Eden we love sharing and discussing as we learn. On Tuesdays, we sit together for lunch and do just that: someone might present some new cool technology, or practice presenting in front of a friendly audience. We [...]
What are you waiting for?
Sometimes you have this brilliant idea, or maybe just a simple idea, something you want to do. There is a good chance that you might want to wait for the perfect moment to start with your idea. The odds are you will be waiting forever. This possibly happens due to the inexorable perfectionist in you [...]
Michael DiBernardo in the Wandering Book
The new entry of The Wandering Book by Michael DiBernardo is a very interesting one. In the first part of it he praises the Software Craftsmanship community (our strive to learn and improve, the way we try to make our software as simple as possible, etc), but it is actually the part “under the line” [...]
Bobby Wilson in the Wandering Book
It seems that The Wandering Book is travelling at higher speed now. We recently had a very insightful entry from Gustin Prudner and, to my surprise, today there is a new one; this time by Bobby Wilson coding fellow at Entryway: In his entry he states: There are ideas but there aren’t rules. Craftsmanship is [...]
Gustin Prudner in the Wandering Book
We have another wonderful entry to The Wandering Book, this time from Gustin. Gustin runs a small studio in Floyd, Virginia called Entryway. They follow a set of core values deeply ingrained into their culture embracing Software Craftsmanship to their daily lives as a business. In his entry in The Wandering Book, Gustin, describes his [...]
Customer Collaboration: on Empathy
The 4th value in the Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship reads: Not only customer collaboration, but also productive partnerships. Being “in tune” with our customers has always been one of the most important aspects of my professional life. I have always tried to understand, really understand, the need of a customer; get to know where it [...]
Software Craftsmanship on IRC
The other day I was looking around IRC (it was a long time since I had logged into IRC) and to my surprise I could not find a #software_craftsmanship channel! Long story short (this should be just a little update) I have decided to log into irc.freenode.net whenever I can and be in the #software_craftsmanship [...]
