We are designing a new research project in the Developer Success Lab, and we're seeking to understand software engineers' experiences with *incidents* ! Good, bad, ugly, all of it!
Have a big story or strong POV on this? We're bringing together a small community group for a one time zoom session, to share stories and help us learn. You'll directly influence what the lab studies on this.
You can let us know if you're interested here (more details below):
We would love to register your interest to be part of a small (4-5 person), one-time, group conversation about incidents in the context of software engineering and software engineering orgs. This conversation will help inform a new research project we are embarking on at the Developer Success Lab. The goal will largely be to develop ideas about this broad topic and help us find less visible areas of work involving incidents to bring into the light for the broader research and engineering community. You can find out more about our work here: https://dsl.pubpub.org/original-research We will contact you at the email you provide below. Thank you very much for taking the time to be here, and for your interest in contributing to this work.
I read The Unaccountability Machine a while ago and liked how it introduced accountability sinks and “large corporations as AIs”, but felt it had some oddities in its analysis.
I’ve kept seeing people discuss it, and decided to turn my gripes (and likes) into a blog post: https://ferd.ca/notes/davies-on-the-unaccountability-machine.html
