Nebraska.Codeβ‘ Outdated documentation can slow teams down as much as missing documentation.
Whitney & Grey Lovelace explore practical approaches to collaborative, lightweight, and maintainable βliving documentationβ in this Nebraska.Code() session.
atozofsoftwareengineering.blogThe Engineering Leadership Crisis Nobody Talks About π¨ #EngineeringLeadership #SoftwareEngineering #PlatformEngineering #TechLeadership #Microservices #SRE
Modern engineering teams are collapsing under platform complexity, AI chaos, organizational scaling failures, and unreliable architectures. This deep technical leadership guide explains how elite engineering leaders manage platform rewrites, reliability crises, organizational chaos, and large-scale modernization without destroying delivery velocity. #SoftwareArchitecture #EngineeringManagement #DevOps #CloudComputing #Leadership
InfoQHow do we bring the joy back to #SoftwareDevelopment in the #AIEra?
In this #InfoQ #podcast, Michael Parker explores βThe AI Joy Gapβ - why some developers are thriving while others are burning out.
He dives into:
β‘οΈ The βFactory Architectβ: orchestrating AI agents instead of writing code directly
β‘οΈ Hype vs. Reality: the cultural divide between AI optimism and the reality of wrestling with legacy codebases

CodeaholicguyThe new 10x Engineer with AI
The idea of the β10x engineerβ has always been a bit controversial. Some people see it as a myth. Some people see it as a harmful label that creates hero culture. Some people have worked with engineers who clearly create much more impact than others, and believe the idea is real. I sit somewhere in the middle. I donβt think a 10x engineer means someone who writes 10x more code than everyone else. That version of the idea was never useful to me. Writing more code is not the same as [β¦]https://codeaholicguy.com/2026/05/13/the-new-10x-engineer-with-ai/
Thomas ByernMost migrations fail socially before they fail technically.
Not because people are unwilling, but because the system has hidden contracts: spreadsheets, habits, undocumented workflows, βtemporaryβ scripts that became critical infrastructure.
The code is only the visible part.
The hard part is preserving intent while changing mechanics.

There is a quiet kind of technical excellence that looks like βnothing happened.β
No incident. No fire drill. No heroic debugging session.
Just clear boundaries, boring interfaces, and a refusal to let the system become clever in the wrong places.
Heroics feel productive.
Routine is what scales.

In the pursuit of High-Performing Engineering Teams, we often focus on code commits & metrics.
But what if the most important signals live in the relationships between teammates?
In this #InfoQ talk, Lizzie Matusov explores how trust and psychological safety are critical indicators of team success.

Every generation believes it finally solved complexity.
Every previous generation already tried.
What changes is not the problem space, but the tools we use to argue about it.
And the names we give to old ideas when we rediscover them.
Progress is real.
Amnesia is just faster.

Swift CraftGreat engineering teams share their knowledge. π§
We just released the full talk from Joseph El Mallah on one of the trickiest transitions in iOS right now: Moving to Swift 6 Concurrency without breaking your SwiftUI flow.
It is great to see companies like GetYourGuide supporting their engineers in sharing deep technical insights.
