Nice summary of common terms used for roles in companies.

Interesting little taxonomy of staff engineer roles. This can help to know from where you're talking in your organization.

Interesting career ladder example. I especially like the various dimensions they focus on.

Interesting way to highlight Goodhart's Law. Indeed you can be corrupted by the very system you put in place if if it's mainly driven by metrics. As much as possible, think qualitative, not quantitative.

If you want to get to the bottom of a problem and of why an accident happen, people need psychological safety. This is indeed necessary if you want them to share truthfully why the accident happened in the first place. Otherwise fear will drive the conversation and hide important facts.

A good reminder about the impacts of Goodhart's law, or even simply of measuring the wrong thing. I like the conclusion overall: it's fine to measure things but that shouldn't be the center of the decision taking and conversations need to take a larger role into it.

Good points to keep in mind regarding team size. It's a delicate balance to strike in an organization.

Very thorought breakdown on the things to keep in mind around remote work. We definitely still need offices and ways to meet. It "just" needs to be rethought how we use them and how we're reachable.

That's nice to see a reusable framework to help organizations get started with their engineering ladder.

OK, unexpected introduction, still the advices are sound: teach, delegate, handle the hard cases.

It feels a bit like cumulating aphorisms and "laws" to prove the point. Still it's nice to know them at least for the general culture.

Very good points in there. Indeed there's a natural tension between making and managing. You can't schedule the day in the same way. After more remote work, indeed we'll need more async communication.

It's great to see GitLab be such a public and outspoken champion of remote work. Let's hope more organizations walk the path.

OK, this is an interesting practice... I do some of that in a less formal fashion, maybe it's worth exploring further.

Nice piece on how to handle asynchronous communication in a remote work setup.

To me that sounds an awful like the "lazy consensus" often applied in communities. Still this is indeed a good approach.

About growth again, definitely from the point of view of the mentee though. This looks like a nice and lean framework to figure out where you are and where you want to go.

Lots of nice advices, both for mentors and mentees. This is definitely hard work but it's worth it for people to grow.

I find the title somewhat limiting due to the "Gen Z" label, but content is way more balanced even though fairly US centric. There are a few good lessons about work perception by people.

An interesting set of management principles. Most make sense, a couple might be contextual.
