… A word of warning …

It is not may intention to make you feel offended,

this talk is

my view of the world,my experience,

my life,my twisted sense of humour

Respect it!!!

We Are Crowd

We Are Anonymous

Who am I?Journeyman through

space, time and technology

devoted follower in church of JVM

Archaeologist of legacy code

..But today...I am going to talk(or at least try)

about feelings & emotions

...PRIDE...

...Meaning of life...

Software is eating the worldBy Marc Andreessen

And

Complexity is eating softwareFor lunch

We Are GODS

If software is everywhereAnd

Became a vital part of our livesWhy

there is so much frustration

I am feeling lucky!

codebases we work with, suck

Architects are stupid (I want to become one)

I hate trend setters at conferences

technology X sucks big time, and Y is new cool

My manager doesn't understand how to do software

All these processes and deadlines are sick

Why?

Hegemony of Mediocrity

Myth of 10x programmer

„We don't trust you”

Clean code is expensive

Workforce shortage

Decision Fatigue

Distractions, distractions

10-15 minutes Penalty

Meetings, emails, MessengersOpen space

Disconnected fromOur creation

What we deliverIs not

What customers get

We tend to forget about it

We live in an illusion that code

Is important

We are hidden behind:

Organization layers(sales, support, product)

Infrastructure

Processes

How many times you have heard from your customer

“I saw your recent change to registration form, from the first look I

knew it was you who coded it”

„I think this pagination on orders page was probably coded by Tomasz, it must

have been him”

We Are Anonymous

Revolution is

Calling

stop complaining, criticizing and whining

Be full of respect for the past generations,

because the way you talk about old code today,

will be the same way people will be

talking about your code years from now

Be full of care about future generations,

they will have to live with your legacy code

Be full of childish curiosity, embrace failures,

be open, experiment and share

Being proud of what you are doing is most rewarding thing in our life

Be proud of who you are, don’t accept mediocrity

but don’t punish people for it

Don’t make people feel bad about it (I know it is hard, trust me)

if code is bad, change it,

if your not happy with a conference talk,

submit your own,

if you think your manager is an a**hole, become one,

for a moment,

Do anything, to be proud ofwho you are,

pride of your work will come later,

Really

Once you gain,Experience,Confidence,

Respect & trust

Let the eternal stream of byte codeFlows through your body
