Over the past few days, I’ve been working on a React application. It is a straightforward application that doesn’t even require a database. However, I didn’t want to embed all the content into the application’s JSX because some of it will be updated frequently. So I decided to use a few simple JSON files to store the contents. The application is the website for a conference, and I wanted to build a page that looks as follows: To generate a page like the one in the previous image I have stored th

I just had a conversation with a client that I keep coming back to. It has to do with how we are using electronic systems that manager our work, for example JIRA and TFS. I needed something to refer back to and I hope that you can get something out of me writing this down. In this particular case the question was very straight-forward: I think we are overusing the tag ‘Need investigation’.

Scrum is based on empirical process control. If I understand this correctly, this means that we base our actions on what happens and inspect and adapt accordingly. Scrum is accordingly set up with a set of rules, roles, artifacts and events designed in such a way that if they are followed good results will happen. … Continue reading "The Insidious Side of Scrum and How I’d Fix It (and yes, I know it wouldn’t be Scrum anymore)".

Although I often preach about embracing uncertainty and sometimes get comments about always being calm… despite that; I worry. As do we all. But sometimes, in rare moments of clarity, I have the opportunity to stop and reflect over the what I am worried about. It just about always brings me to the realization that I worry in vain. Let me share three things in particular, that I have worried about lately.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Goals are good, but in themselves, don’t provide much guidance to get to them (think “buy low sell high”). A better way to learn to write stories is to take … Continue reading "INVEST is a goal, not a guide".

I’m pretty sure you already think handwriting thank-you notes is a good move. So why don’t you more often? Does it seem old-fashioned? Too much work? Overly time-consuming? Not sure what to say? Do you associate it with notes you had send to your aunt, thanking her for your itchy birthday socks? Those are the same reasons I had for not writing more notes.

A never-ending debate is that about the quality of Indian software developers. It is said that most developers around the world begin coding at a ridiculously young age. However, it will surprise many to know that in India, only one in ten start coding before the age of 15. The number is three out of ten elsewhere! See the difference? Hence, we have always heard time and again that Indian software developers are ok-to-mediocre coders, are not technically competent, and most times, clueless.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs.
