In tech, there are two types of wasted effort: the wrong type of solution, and a solution in the wrong place. Usually, devs manage to make both mistakes at once.
The bottleneck in the work is usually a broken process, and the process is made of people. Social problems require social solutions.

All your problems are people problems (Don't Just Do Things, Part 2)
If you want to do strategy, you must be willing to do process transformation first.

Good morning #DevoxxMA! Interested in learning about #GitOps and #ProgressiveDelivery of your apps? Join my session at 16:30 and if the network and demo gods cooperate you might even get to participate in a #Quarkus game 😉. Are you team Beach 🏖️ or team Desert 🏜️? 😎

I see this fallacy almost every day, in tech and politics:
1. There is a problem
2. We believe that our solution will fix the problem
3. We built the solution
4. Therefore the problem is now fixed
Bitch, no. You have to check.
Let's talk about leading and trailing indicators.

We used artillery physics to bomb hapless worms into radioactive rubble(1). Early hacking was almost always an attempt to get software to align better with what the user wanted(2).

I think it's incredibly useful to have ongoing user research, but it's hard to sell that way. My current tactic is to talk about "end-user observability". Makes it sound much fancier than "actually watch use patterns"
