    Three months into a sabbatical, six things got hard to ignore. Most of them are stories I'd been telling myself for years and never bothered to examine. New post: The Comfortable Lie 👇 ajeygore.in/content/the-co… For Curious, thread follows...

    Folks become software engineer - I can tell you it’s the only profession, where jobs are chasing candidates, any good engineer being chased by a head hunter right now. Any skill, any language, any stack. Go learn programming.

    If you are going through midlife crisis or stagnant career Remember this The friends and family in your life don’t need a superstar CXO, tech lead, managing director. They need someone real, present, and fully invested in them, just as much as they are invested in you.

    Don't celebrate a new hire, until they are in your office, on the company laptop, and have started responding to emails from official IDs! maybe still wait for a week to celebrate :-) Reality Check!

    why don't people take retirement in installments - every five to ten years, take two to three years or retirement, work for fifty years, retire for fifteen years :-) I think it's a fantastic idea.

    When you can’t afford readymade food, you learn to cook! That’s what I did when I was studying during my degree. Right now if you can’t afford a readymade engineer, have a strategic view, hire a lot of freshers, train them, bootcamp, 3 months they will be bleeding code! Do it.

    No company tells the world why they let someone go. People who are genuinely incompetent keep roaming, job hopping and gaining more salaries and delivering nothing. Incompetent leaders and what to do about them? 1/n

    Over engineering decisions for startups in early days - ideally you don’t need them day one. 1. Kafka 2. Distributed databases 3. Big query? 4. Mostly micro-services 5. Fully staffed SRE - ahem devops team 6. In-house small services because we can. What else?

    30 years ago Microsoft released half baked no code software. It was called Visual Basic :-)

    When you are hired into a job, don't complain about difficulties in the job or about your predecessors, because you are hired "EXACTLY" to solve these issues. You are there because someone needed someone like you to solve the issues and make it better.

    Never blame legacy or past leadership. You are hired to solve and inherit these, that’s the part of job description that you didn’t read.
