The second book for our #speakingsoftwarebookbridge project was Shape Up, by Ryan Singer. It’s a refreshing look at the Software Delivery Process that is sure to inspire, and hopefully accelerate your feature output!

It’s so mind-boggling simple and beautiful that you have to marvel at how it’s not more widely known and adopted…

The first book for our #speakingsoftwarebookbridge project was "Code That Fits in Your Head: Heuristics for Software Engineering" by Mark Seemann. Coming in at a hefty 400 pages; it’s no bedtime read! However, it is an invaluable book to have on your shelf - preferably always within arms’ reach of your computer…

Starting strong on our first #speakingsoftwarebookbridge book pick, I'd like to relay some of my initial impressions and insights.

Our first pick is "Code That Fits in Your Head: Heuristics for Software Engineering" by Mark Seemann, and it's a fantastic read!

Through sharing advice, our personal experience, and industry anecdotes; we've helped developers increase their salaries, move up the ladder, and build a strong name for themselves in their industry.

We'd like to step things up, and give you an open space to share what you have learned.

Like everyone else in the world, I wanted to dive deeper in Large Language Models (LLMs), Generative Pretrained Transformers (GPTs), and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The hype around this topic is crazy right now!

ChatGPT provided some good fun in my first forays, but it just wasn't scratching the itch. I hate "magic", and always want to know what's happening under the hood. I wanted to *run* this stuff, not just use it…

There are very real and very fixable reasons why many technology professionals don't see advancement or good/frequent salary bumps.

I've seen many talented developers who have become stuck in their careers. And it sucks! It's not a mystery though folks! In this episode we’ll walk through my top 5 reasons why, and how to get passed them.

With the landscape of tech changing under Engineer's feet, it can be hard to see a positive future. Worry not, as there are concrete steps that you can take to ride the rising tide and make it through!

This episode I talk to Steve Orrin, Federal CTO of Intel Corporation. Steve was kind enough to share his thoughts on the current economic climate, and what Junior and Mid-level Developers can do to progress during this disruption.

Mistakes are fantastic, and an essential part of the learning process! However there are some mistakes that Junior Developers make that hinder their career, and can be incredibly difficult to recover from. We’ll discuss those here, as well as how to remedy them so you can level up and become a stronger software engineer!

Bit of an unexpected hiatus, but we're back with a bang! What's the bang? It's a book that I wrote, called Your Dream Developer Job.

Today I'd like to talk about my first internationally published book.

It's about everything you need to position yourself as the ideal candidate for your perfect role in the tech industry. It is now available worldwide; in Paperback, Kindle and DRM-Free EBook formats.
