Thanks


That is true


I like your suggestion a lot


Two months. Yes, you're right my main concern shouldn't be the image that I'm projecting. Thanks for writing.


How have you handling it so far?. I'm turning 2 months today. I been reading and documenting a lot on free time but still not enough.


Well, I guess mostly by revising work I've done in the past. Reviewing it and thinking about how it could be improved if I were to apply methods that my coworkers would use.

I know it could be difficult for you, but consider just asking them for advice on the systems you're building/proposing. If you think they're likely to turn down the ideas you have, you may as well pre-empt that and get down to the business of figuring out a compromise. It may not make you look like some rockstar programmer, but at least you'll be learning something as quickly as possible. Also, depending on how down to earth your employers are, appearing humble before your superiors/more experienced colleagues and wanting of knowledge will only cast a good light on you.


Thanks, this makes sense.


Hahaha, thanks for the laugh. I think you're right.


The timing of this post is great! So tented to send it to my boss who apparently has no clue in software engineer. Great article! Recommend it!


As a mostly business guy, I kind this post said it best. It is about velocity and when to tractor/automate. It came across HN a couple weeks ago, but I'm not great at searching HN. http://blog.hut8labs.com/speeding-up-your-eng-org-part-i.htm...


Thank you, this is fantastic. I'm now thinking of ways I can transform this into a short presentation.


Thank you, that article is excellent.


Thanks!


After checking indeed, I have to say thank you! Great site to find job ops.


Thanks, added to my list. I was currently checking CC, Monsters and Dice.


This is so sad and unfair
