"we cannot release until this chunk of code getting refactored "

vim :)

I have been to similar situation, when a manager asked tech team to prepare a excel sheet to maintain github commits... Me: "what, WTF. commits can be tracked on github itself, and we do not need to maintain excel sheet"

Which did not go well with guys who proposed it

Basically get confidence of team members before opposing or otherwise.

"sitting quietly in one place for a while". One of the hard thing to do in today's times. I am also planning to do same every morning :)

I would like to disagree here. Got into a team which has working prototype but not a single word on document. Which makes this hard to follow up with prototype.

Being tech lead in current position, I am stressing "document-first" approch it is either for client or tech team.

There always comes times when there is not much happening development is going on. In my earlier company due to the same situation, I started contributing an open-source project and build side projects.

that one is a good to read.

Although I like writing tests but following Test-Driven Development slows down the development of side-projects.

https://codeureka.blogspot.com/ mostly python related stuff and other stuff with which i'm tinkering.

Great point. The tools are there to make life easy for developers. Even after using these tools, PM need to do checkins with team then I think something is very wrong in terms how PM is handling the team.

I am learning Elixir and build small library with it. Looking to integrate the Phoenix sometime near. I have asked feedback for this project on elixirfourm or on its slack channel. And people have been nice and helpful.

I would suggest to forget about it and continue your search.

Very true with the company having shitty managers living in old ages, imposes the brainless day to day activities like updating number excel sheets instead of on focusing on actual work. ++ for office politics.

hustle free environment, happy faces around, sense of belonging to the company.

Startred in 30s, worked couple of startups with nice people. Also seen shit that happens at mid-level companies where code takes the backseat and its all about getting more customers and manager is only care about JIRA tickets. Stop going after companies who took whiteboard interviews. Looking for engaging and frendliy environment without bullshit.

Impressive talk :https://doist.com/blog/running-remote-2018-doist-presentatio...

Hearing Joe's talks on various topics of computing are thrilling. Long live Erlang and Elixir.

Good one.

Forcing changes in already messed culture may backfire. You need to take the confidence of key peoples in the team before 'forcing'.

python library called requests.
