Why is there so many spammy junk ads on this site? :|

There is an extremely popular library/framework for Scala named ZIO out there,… Naming is hard.

Scala is missing from the languages list. :(

It's nice. But. Where is Q5? Our CEO said we need one.

For weeks now... Why?

You would be surprised - or rather shocked - how many enterprises still run on it.

Hi!

I'm seasoned software engineer, architect, engineering manager and ex-CTO with more than 25 years in the industry. I have a pretty neat track record of building pretty impressive things that live online. I've taken several projects from wireframes to global deployments. I love open-source!

I also have experience leading remote distributed teams and making sure that all the relevant product and business stakeholders are happy.

I would love to see what you wanna build and help you get to that next sweet level.

Sincerely,

Oto

What could possibly go wrong?

O, wait. That's how the SEO hacking industry was born.

Same here. I was hoping to see some Scala… perhaps for data processing/streaming/engineering.

I wrote this blog-post about cracking of the Wordle game. If you are interested into its mechanics and implementation…

I'm currently working as engineering manager / architect with 20+ years of experience in "Web". I've managed teams with 20+ engineers in 5+ countries. I like to work with "a lot" of data, as close to real-time as possible. I like to prototype and get my hands dirty.

OP here. I'm sorry that I didn't put the name "Voilà" in the title. I was so very excited that I've mistyped myself.

I'm an architect and engineering manager. Currently leading fully distributed engineering team, building distributed, real-time "conversation engine".

I'm interested in remote roles where something unique is being built. :)

I love Scala and I can build basically anything that needs to exist and scale online. Challenge me!

This is silly.

I'm currently working as a technology director; managing 20+ remote contractors in 4 countries. I've been building things online for the last 17 years.

I love to solve problems with modern tooling and I love working with startups where I can make a big difference.

I would like to work on projects that have a lot of data and is hopefully moving fast. :)

I’ve found out last Friday that I have to fire 2/3 of our engineering team. I work for a R&D “lab” inside a corporation, inside market research industry. Reason that I’ve got is that company hasn’t reached its expected growth and there is no budget to continue development in such size. I had to let my friends go... It’s gonna be really really though to stay.

So, if you need remote Senior Ruby, Senior Scala, Senior OPS, Senior Front-End (Angular), Senior iOS/Swift, or certified product managers, ping me.

I'll very likely have to fire 14 world-class engineers, OPS, PMs and designers. From the team that I've spent building 4 years. We'll very likely have to kill the product that I've spent all my work and free time working on.

This is gonna be the first time I'll actually have to say "thanks" to people that I consider to be my friends. At the beginning of very likely the worst crisis that the world has seen.

Ruby, Scala, OPS, Machine learning, AI, Angular, fully-remote and distributed...

I'm working as a technology director in a larger corporation in ad-tech space; more accurately market research industry.

After working as (full-stack) engineer for several years I've evolved into tech lead, architect and engineering manager. I'm currently managing a fully remote team of 20+ engineers in 4 different countries. I went from being a single engineer in a project to running this quite efficient and impressive team. From MVPs and PoC to large distributed systems...

I don't wanna share too much information publically. If you are looking for an architect/lead/engineering manager perhaps we should talk.

P.s.: I'm really hyped with reactive systems. ;)

I appreciate some feedback. :) Love.

You are absolutely right! Thanks.

Get the O'reilly's book "The Manager's Path - A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change" and READ IT.

1) You will not need to trust others to write better code/systems then you and that you will very likely be unable to code anymore.

2) Establish a good relationship with your team members. Seek for people who you can delegate to and trust. Trust and reliable people are really hard to find. When shit hits the fan - and it absolutely does - you'll need that.

3) You need people who will push and people who will follow. Having just one group and not the others is a recipe for disaster.

4) Establish what things you should care for and what not. The amount of shit is insane and it only gets worse you need to have a threshold on when and on what to react.

5) Do you own research as much as possible on key things.

6) Keep asking "why". It annoys me as f* but also forces you to go deeper with explaining and understanding of the problem. (don't wanna say google "Five whys")

7) Encourage people to go deeper, to learn more to become experts.

9) Have 1-on-1s. Regular. Scheduled. Talk about life/work. Try to find how you can make the place and challenges better. Help them grow in an organisation and professionally.

10) Sketch things out. Write em' down. Otherwise, you'll go insane repeating stuff.

I sincerely wish you good luck.

P.s.: People have more bugs and are sometimes even more broken than software. :D

The Managers Path is brilliant. I highly recommend it.

One of the best books I read in 2019. :)

Creating a Google Meet call from command-line and copying URL to clipboard.

If you wanna make it work; this is sadly the only way until Docker Compose is patched.

Rename .env to something else and reconfigure autoenv.

This doesn't work. At least not with 1.24.1.

I'm using autoenv - https://github.com/inishchith/autoenv.

The workaround that I've found for this problem is to set "AUTOENV_ENV_FILENAME=.env.user" and then inside the project folder, I'm now using ".env.user" instead of just ".env".

I'll use this hack until Docker guys fix Docker Compose.
