17 &#60;p&#62;I don&#8217;t care how unusual it is as long as you briefly describe the workflow. I&#8217;ve been through so many different applications and services and stuck with absolutely none of them that I would even try LibreOffice Calc if you can describe a compelling approach. Offline and open source are big bonuses and I don&#8217;t mind spending hours in a config file.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;I also posted about this on &#60;a href=&#34;https://social.nixnet.services/@amolith/104981267386647286&#34; rel=&#34;ugc&#34;&#62;Mastodon&#60;/a&#62; and got some interesting suggestions but I&#8217;m curious what people here use.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;

114 &#60;p&#62;My organization has all kind of problems and there are lots of people trying to fix our processes, methods, tools, organization, roles, strategy, whatever. Nobody seems to have a &#60;del&#62;wholesome&#60;/del&#62; holistic vision though. I have trouble coming up with something myself.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;How would you describe a great environment for software development?&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;I&#8217;m interested into what aspects you consider relevant. Is it the tooling? Ex-Googler seem to have a habit of reinventing Google-internal tools, for example. Is it the team or the colleagues? With the right people, I can endure a lot. Is it the strategy? Maybe a visionary at the top (Musk, Jobs, Zuckerberg) makes the difference. Maybe it is just the pay? Netflix CEO apparently believes high salaries for top talent is essential.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;

185 &#60;p&#62;I got myself taken seriously at work the other day, so I&#8217;m writing a draft of&#8230; something (in normal times it would have been a handful of lectures or workshop sessions; in these pandemic times we&#8217;ll have to see) that I want to use to introduce developers at work to the practice of designing and running distributed systems.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;In short, work has decided that they want to take the monolith they&#8217;ve run for years and cut it into services. My opinion is that we&#8217;ve never asked the majority of developers working here to do this, and they&#8217;ll have a bad time if they have to figure out how to design and run distributed systems from first principles. I&#8217;m putting together some kind of primer they can use to (a) find out what they don&#8217;t know, (b) find out where to learn more, and (c) contains some of the lessons we&#8217;ve learned the hard way. I want to focus more on the practice of doing these things than the theory; understanding Paxos is very nice, but usually doesn&#8217;t help us not get paged at night.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;I&#8217;d like to ask what resources people here know of and can recommend for this? I have a pile of bookmarks, but it&#8217;s probable I don&#8217;t know of some helpful texts.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;&#60;p&#62;I&#8217;d also like to know if anyone has tried a hand-on approach to these kinds of lessons, and how it went? I had an idea of having people build a small test system that I&#8217;d break in various ways (overload it with many queries, or heavy queries, or introduce network splits, or &#8230;) but I&#8217;m not sure if they&#8217;d just get lost in the system setup and we&#8217;d never get to more interesting lessons.&#60;/p&#62;&#10;
