Can we claim that we have some evidence based on a sample of 6 people?
> This is one of the most common and damaging mistakes I see
Interestingly, the most common mistake I see is people neglecting the cost of developing a solution themselves:
1. opportunity cost
2.long term maintenance
3. documentation & training new people

I don't have a long experience with glasses but I have never received these instructions and my experience is similar to the author.
1. The business and product
2. The engineering quality
You can have a tech company (business level as described in the article) and produce ugly code (ex: facebook?).
You can sell groceries on the internet and have great code.
But starting a "gather requirements - write software - deliver it" lifecycle because you are confident that you have all the knowledge is one as well.

But then ... you have to find, attract and hire good developers. That's already difficult, adding an extra layer of 'boring technology' will make this task even more challenging.
TradeMachines is the global search engine for pre-owned machines, ranging from diggers to production machines. We are promoting digitization within a fast-growing market and already handle as many as 30 % of auctions in Europe.
You will join a small team composed of ~ 8 people with a lot of autonomy, freedom and responsibility.
We are working with AWS and Docker on a microservice architecture, so as a backend engineer, you will have to develop a devops mindset. Additionally you can find the principles that we value on github: https://github.com/trademachines/trademachines-it-principles
We are currently looking for:
* Scala Developer (Scala, Akka, Play, Elasticsearch, AWS, Docker) - http://company.trademachines.com/about-us/jobs/scala-develop...
* Senior Frontend Developer (HTML, Javascript) - http://company.trademachines.com/about-us/jobs/frontend-soft...
I work as a backend engineer there, feel free to contact me if you want more informations: fb at trademachines.com
- create a list of all the tools/products/whatever you use at work
- rate them from 1 to 5 (5 you are an expert on this topic)
- then pick the most important one for your job and try to increase your grade
The grade is totally subjective, but still it helps.
For the "next big thing" I take a look regularly to the thoughtworks radar [1]. That's a nice overview.
Some downside with the Ubuntu version:
* the trackpad not deactivated when typing, that's a real pain, have you found a solution?
* the wake up after a suspension will sometimes generate some problems (no wifi etc..)
