Is something I think about often because I can’t help but wonder if most other jobs are like this.

Software #developers think nothing of paying the *price* of extensive refactoring and rewrites foisted on the industry by commodity #programming languages, because there's a constant churn of commodity "talent" to absorb the work (and budgets).

#SoftwareEngineers count the *cost* of #coding as another tradeoff, another means to the end of delivering more value than is spent on the #development process.

Which are you, a myopic commodity or a true-seeing craftsman?

Over his 20-year career, Jesús Barrasa has spanned the worlds of object-oriented #propertyGraphs (#LPGs) and assertion-based #knowledgeGraphs (#KGs).

He knows as much about these two foundational technologies as anyone and offers pragmatic advice to help #enterpriseArchitects and #softwareEngineers decide which approach will work best for their needs.

How do we know 9.5% of software engineers are Ghosts? Our model quantifies productivity by analyzing source code from private Git repos, simulating a panel of 10 experts evaluating each commit across multiple dimensions. We've published a paper on this and have more on the way
