Iterative also refers to the way in which you do something. So instead of thinking too much about each word, the acronym I have provided serves as a reference point. How often do we see great ideas with real business value get diluted by scope overload? Solution design is more than just writing software.

Netflix’s engineering culture is predicated on Freedom & Responsibility, the idea that everyone (and every team) at Netflix is entrusted with a core responsibility and they are free to operate with freedom to satisfy their mission. In the Efficiency space, our data teams focus on transparency and optimization.

This tries to set up a base understanding of characteristics that make up a healthy Engineering Culture. By involvement, we are referring to the degree we are coupled to the framework. Psychology values Team Pyramid. It’s an analogy to the Maslow Hierarchy of Needs. Stemming Search. Service size vs Framework involvement.

For the sake of concision, I’ll refer to this as a Center of Production Excellence (CoPE). This is analogous to safety departments in organizations that attempt to do resilience engineering. In other words, the goal is to understand an organization from the inside so well that the group can engage in constructive criticism.

You can find an overview of the available blocks in the API reference of Block Kit blocks. Blocks are visual components that can be stacked and arranged to create app layouts. Some components (such as buttons) inject interactivity in your layout. In the Block Kit Builder you can design your components.

These are built on three key principles: Automation : By automating recurring tasks whenever possible, we reduce the margin for human error and free up our engineers to focus on the right things. To do this effectively, we need a culture of confidence around the code that we take to production. Confidence : We ship fast and often.

The ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) Instructions reference for the ALU Sequential Logic Thus far these chips had been working instantly—I fed in some input and immediately out came the result. Like the MUX chip, you feed in two values, flip a few control bits, and out pops the result. Abstractions on top of abstractions, on top of abstractions.

Choosing where to focus is a balancing act: delivering new products, fixing legacy software, and improving engineering culture. You don’t need to reference the cycle in your narrative, but I recommend loosely following the structure. My advice is to use Simon Wardley’s Strategy Cycle as the basis for your narrative.

I took this diagram and drew a red dotted line around each slice referred to as “tech debt” at one point or another. Stakeholders sometimes feel like engineering teams spend a lot of time on tech debt, but once you take the time to unpack all the work in the category, the exact reason for this is obvious.

The implications were clear: Perhaps in the end the open-source culture will triumph not because cooperation is morally right…. They have a culture of respect for engineers, and of long-term thinking. Making this transition … proved highly challenging for our business colleagues, especially culturally.
