I am still enjoying the Book Overflow podcast, this time with John Ousterhout. The podcast about the UK environmental agency is also great, and depressing. Leadership Wisdom for Work #25 - The Art of Generative Listening [Podcast] - the five levels are an interesting approach. As a leader, you have to master listening, that’s how you know where to go. The Surprising Long Term Impact of Layoffs on Company Performance & Employee Experience. [Podcast] - that is understandable, at times you can’t really avoid it, though. ...

Teapot and cup on table I was a bit distracted last Friday, so it is another double week today. I truly enjoy the Bookoverflow podcast. Some of the books I know already, and find the different perspectives interesting. Some of the other books I do plan to read now. For something entirely different: The Orkneyinga Saga and Fed podcasts. Leadership No More: It’s The People - at least not all the time. ...

Last week, my automation for these failed, so you have to endure twice as many links today. I also said that I wouldn’t post depressing news any more. I am sorry, but the climate crisis and pollution made me do it, so it is your fault really. ...

Good news for the environment. I enjoyed reading the PySkyWiFi hack! This happens when engineers are bored. Engineering Just Use Postgres for Everything - I have opinions … PySkyWiFi: completely free, unbelievably stupid wi-fi on long-haul flights - how many programmers have thought about hacking the Wi-Fi in planes? All of them! Microservices [YouTube] - funny, also use better names for your stuff! PagerDuty Incident Response - looking at this at the moment.. ...

Vintage Atari ad: One word for these prices: Rip-off This week I have been enjoying the audio archive of The Famous Computer Cafe, a radio show from the eighties with many famous guests of the home computer area. There are definitely some parallels to the present. The X Windows history is also great. Today’s post does contain plenty of throwbacks. Leadership TBM 297: Staying In Touch - keeping track of things helps, people forget, and we can’t see trends ...
