Thanks for the links. Looks like a nice utility belt for devs who want to be productive.

Most orgs kill productivity and creativity with lack of compensation, treating them like a code farm, or mediocre peers.

Devs choose to be productive in different environments, most of the time it’s simple, step aside and let the dev do more than code. Talk to a client (yes! It’s not as crazy as it sounds). Show appreciation with bonuses not a seasonal holiday themed ham.

I think your headed in the right direction!

Thanks! 100% agree with the sentiment that devs should get in front of customers. The best teams I've worked on, the devs have an "end-to-end" sense of ownership, and the organization fosters this sense of responsibility and agency. And great work should absolutely be recognized. It should be a win-win-win—better software for end users, more revenue for the company, and financial + creative satisfaction for developers. We are working with all our might to push the world in that direction.
