I guess it would be more cost/resource effective to maintain one version (latest) of the software.

Ah.
A modicum of research shows that all data is stored in their cloud.
It's a really generous, open-handed* offer, then.

Knowing what reports people generate is probably valuable, so encouraging them to create more reports is ultimately more cost effective than limiting them.

Loosing your mojo is traumatic for everyone, but when it happens to your dev team, it might seem like Dr. Evil has got the best of you. Unfortunately, too many tech teams (and their leaders) start looking for a solution in the wrong places. "The beatings will continue until morale improves"

This particular mis-spelling may be intentional, for some reason it seems particularly common on various social media right now. Yugely sad.

If you love something, let it loose.
I mean, what kind of looser makes such a dumb error in the first word of his pointless ramble?

My favourite is later in the article...
"Take a minute tore-read that".
Deeply ironic.

There should be a Nobel prize for irony at that level.

Start by paying them more than 8€/hour. Then don't leave them in a 50 people noisy open space. When urgency is needed, pay for overtimes. Don't be exceedingly strict on the timings for lunch and allow pauses. Give them decent equipment and not machines that were old 5 years ago.
That would improve quite a lot.

Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

Wait. What if the "Manager" brain is tanned like ours. Who is going to rescue us.

The best managers I've had never held formal one-on-one meetings. What they did have was a genuine open door policy and a willingness to listen to their engineers rant. They repackaged our rants into management bullshit for those higher in the chain and never hid anything going the other way. They rant interference while we got the job done and weren't obsessed with the minutia of how we did so.
|

Agreed. I've always felt my best managers were "air cover". As you say: shield those below from the worst of the management, but still let everyone (in both directions) know what's going on.

Oracle announced in a post published last year that they plan to deprecate the Java browser plugin in JDK 9. Since JDK 9 should be coming in July, it’s imperative that developers find an alternative. "Na na na na, hey hey, goodbye"

Actually, it will be a minor improvement, but only indirectly, so it's absolutely well worth all the noise and kerfuffle that's going to ensue, after the announcement.
