The Seven Deadly Sins of “Go Faster” Things that will make your dev team take longer to deliver worse software:1. Adding more people to the team2. Making them work longer hours3. Cutting down on work that “slows them down”…

The most common things engineering leaders think will make dev teams go faster actually have the opposite effect.

"Ah, but Jason, we couldn't abstract our application's infrastructure because..."

Because?

"Because we riddled the code with direct references to it."

Thank you.

I played the Game of the Year edition ages ago and ended up needing a guide (long since vanished). Themes of alternative truth, corporate greed, technocracy and over-arching technology, even AI (!) struck a chords with me of late, so I went on a revisit (and it's a great game to play anyway).

Steam Community :: Guide :: Deus Ex - Revision: Immersive Screenshot Walkthrough This is a text and screenshot walkthrough of the full game at "Realistic" difficulty. Played as a pacifist, following the guide will introduce you to the full glory of the Revision mod for D

Any old-school gamers among my friends here who remember Deus Ex? I put a guide together for the Revision Mod - a modern re-imagining of the original.

If you're not on Steam do not despair:

Nice morning for a trip to Bristol for #accu2025

See you there! My home town...that I left over 3 decades ago, so it bears no resemblance to how I remember it 😁
