Re:Ask HN: Tired of software career. What now?

Into 10 years into the career, I have found that in the end its all about the people.
Most of the comapanies suck making life easier for software developlemt, with useless standups, lack of documentation, proper testing, quick tasks, and on top of it micromanagement, un-productive meetings and with no foucs on culture. To me, all this energy drainging activities.
It is hard to find the real joy for the job, in such cases.

Most of the companies fail at knowledge transfer as they have very poor documenting culture.

There will be very few companies which will be really using the AI to solve problem which AI can solve, otherwise every next company slapping "AI" on their prodcut.
Re:The Time I Convinced the CTO Not to Outsource Our Developers

Same situatiom came in past, where CEO was trying to hire the agenecy team. I was senior dev into the team, opposed this idea. Their argument was hiring will take lot of time and we have to ship fast.
Worst happened ( although I expeacted that), slowly internal team had "no" work. all the work was directed to agency.

Re:Ask HN: Do you think software quality is going downhill? If so, why?
on Monday February 05, 2024 @12:06AM (#39257568)
IMO, people who are running the company has very little or no perspective of software quality and how it will impact in the long run, specially if company is run by sales (CEO) guy. They just want to "release" feature, even if there is know bugs are there. Its a sad reality of lot of software shops.

Re:What's the worst codebase you've ever worked on?
on Thursday February 23, 2023 @01:56AM (#34907620)
Nested code with no tests or docs and devs are afraid to fix bugs. That's where i coined the term "Fear Driven Development". The code is so mess such that no dev wants to touch the code. when they do touch, something is surely broken.

Re:What startup snakery have you experienced as a developer / employee?
on Monday June 27, 2022 @06:02AM (#31892522)
After covid started, team started working from home. week into it, HR told team that screen tracker software is to be installed. so that CEO can track what team is doing. I objected to this and left the job. since i find this unethical also very childish approach to micromanagement.
Even in office CEO was tracking the "work" via installed cctv from remote since he was in US.
It turns out that guy was control freak.

Re:Ask HN: When you code at work, how do you code in your time off?
on Thursday June 09, 2022 @01:19AM (#31677806)
Totally agree, as one have to enjoy the time spent in code.
Also no pressure to make that perfect (although one may). Important thing that mentioned is project can be worked in "on-off" mode, because giving free time always not viable, specially if one has family.

First write tests without touching existing code. Once tests are complete, do refactor.

people you are working with nice, and you can enjoy working with.
Also not much strees of work, then staying would be better option.
As far as learning is concerned, you have various opportunities to learn outside of work as well, taking course or building project.
Re:Ask HN: I’m starting a new job and things feel off. Am I overreacting?
on Tuesday January 11, 2022 @04:29AM (#29889349)
Its a red flag. Happens to one if my friend, where they ask to go through the product document and get on call to discuss.
But eventually found that(after joining) the company was in complete mess, more of co-founder were clearly lacking vision to run the company.
Friend left that company after a year.
My advice would be if you do not any other offer, join. See how things are on the ground and take decision whether to continue after 6-12 months.
