I wonder if India would have been more non-relgious it too would have become hugely successful. Although relatively its better compared to Pakistan which is too religious than India.
Looks like Islamic nations work great under a monarch rather than democracy.
To make sure IC's remember managers have power. That's all there is to it. No real useful stuff gets done.
Github never asked for login until Microsoft acquired it.
Broken windows help page. Try installing drivers and navigate to knowledge base.
When some thing does not work on windows you reboot and hope it works or just reinstall operating system.
Try tweaking all the settings in visual studio only to be reset on the next update
You have no control over updates. It happens especially when you want to give presentation. Also you can not poweroff whenever you like, because it chooses when the update should happen. No amount of changing setting can fix this.
These are few problems.
Don't forget *its* Microsoft. It won't change.
I feel this.
Precisely. Hence managers delegate this to devs to figure it out themselves and make documentation easy enough for them to understand on a higher level so they can make it look like they understand whats going on. This is what been exposed with WFH.
The important thing that pisses me off is the salary of manager is about 50% higher than IC's. IMO it should not be 70% of IC's salary considering the skills it requires. Manager does not have more responsibility than IC. Manager never takes responsibility for projects failure, its always blamed on IC. Its easy for a manager to get away because usually about 5 IC's will be in a project and one or two failure to deliver features are tolerated. Combine this with attrition its so easy for a manager to not take any responsibility.
Its a lie manager making dev's effective at their job. All a manager needs to do is communicate the requirements properly most preferably in a written document. That is the only useful thing. Everything else like motivating are just BS which has become very clear in the post covid WFH situation.
Now looking back i can feel the needless interference by managers that slowed down the progress of work. The other sad thing is they assume they have power to fire people to some extent which usually junior engineers believe for the first few years.
Before concluding i had a bad manager, let me say i have had over 10 managers in the past 20 years and its not manager's fault its the job that's BS.
