"Coder" actually means "code monkey" in this context.
True, also universities deliver many code monkeys with M.Sc. titles...

Adding abstractions always comes at the cost of complexity and, when done excessively, starts slowing down the speed of development and the ability for people to easily comprehend the codebase. Only use the mature ones

This is something I can attest to regarding my personal projects. When I get carried away with fancy design, it prevents me from actually creating something that works!
The difficult we do right away...

Microsoft has confirmed a new known issue impacting client and server Windows versions that breaks apps after updating or repairing them using the Windows Installer (previously known as Microsoft Installer). Then I guess you just need to run the Installer again to fix things? Oh...wait.
I guess running the installer isn't in the test path?

When some users complained about some of the sluggish UI performance instances on Windows 11, the Windows developer team confirmed that it is indeed working to address such issues in 2022. I guess the icons are all updated then

Microsoft has started rolling out the Windows 11 upgrade to more eligible Windows 10 devices faster after not detecting update experience issues during the first rollout phases. "'Til the landslide brought me down"

I think you mean stakeholder, not steak holder. The former is someone who has a stake in the project, and the latter is a piece of meat.

Residents of a town in Hawaii alerted authorities to a river that allegedly smelled like beer, and turned out to be 1.2 per cent alcoholic after testing. If you need me, I'll be down by the krik
Or creek if you're more dignified. I guess today's theme is 'dialect'

They simply stumbled upon the source of an American classic beer, PBR (Pabst Beer River.)

An exploration of the foundational complexities of building software at scale—and why they often distill into human, rather than technical, challenges. Fortunately developers are all wicked smart

A very decent read, IMO. Thanks for posting that. I've shared it with others at work.

Thank you - I occasionally get these things right.
