.: Engineering Management

Engineering Management: The Pendulum Or The Ladder — a well written article from Charity Majors about the non-trivial entanglement between engineering and management, explaining how doing everything at the same time does lead to unhappy/un-fulfilled people. Also worth reading in this context is the prequel article The Engineer/Manager Pendulum.

.: New Year - New Vim Trick

Happy 2019! I have learnt a new Vim trick:
When searching for some pattern with / (eg. /mystring), often the next step is to perform a replacement command. Now instead of re-typing the whole string, you can directly enter the substitution command with an emtpy search-pattern (:%s//newstring/), Vim then automatically re-uses the previous search pattern.
