I’m interested in the habit you changed

@severin-bruhat.bsky.social9 Laws Every Manager Should Know (And Most Break Daily) https://medium.com/the-good-boss/9-laws-every-manager-should-know-and-most-break-daily-de06a45d57d3 #engineeringManagement #leadership
@robertstowe.bsky.socialI think an estimate is a planning input, not a promise. Most of the trouble with estimates comes from asking them to be the second thing.

@grevory.bsky.socialI put off blogging about engineering management because I thought others were more qualified.
I’m still learning. I hope sharing my experiences helps others, and helps me learn, too.

@phpboyscout.ukA manager went back to engineering at exactly the same level. Same number on both sides of the ladder. Everyone around him called it a demotion anyway.
Management is a choice. It was never a promotion.
@severin-bruhat.bsky.socialThe reality of being an engineering manager https://leaddev.com/career-development/the-reality-of-being-an-engineering-manager #engineeringManagement #softwareEngineering
@grevory.bsky.socialI started a blog about engineering leadership and the part of the job I care about most: building teams people want to stay on.
Three posts so far, including one about hearing "we've decided to move forward with another candidate."
@powerbitips.bsky.socialSenior engineering managers used to estimate man hours and worker costs in their sleep. That skill has to be rebuilt for agents, and almost nobody has the data yet.

@powerbitips.bsky.socialStory points and sprint planning gave leadership a way to price human effort. Nothing like that exists for agents burning tokens, and somebody has to allocate that budget.

@huehnken.deFeedback is hard. Especially giving it (receiving it can be, too).
There's no lack of articles and guides on this, so your feedback fatigue might expand to even reading about it. But I find this a good, comprehensive overview.
