The posts that could have been

Past week has been so busy that I had no time to write anything. So here are a few thoughts and episodes that will never see the light :-) :
- How the lack of system thinking can turn a well-intentioned optimization into a pessimization. Inspired by some troubles buying tickets :-)
- How the wrong attitude in an otherwise good software engineer can harm his career and ultimately his group (well, I'd better keep this for myself anyway :-)
- Code reviews, and the need for a cultural change to get over the blame game.
- How space affects creativity. Or, can you see the affordances built in your working environment? What do they tell you?
- Early thoughts after teaching a short seminar at University of Trieste.
Anyway, this week should be lighter :-), so I'll probably post something slightly more interesting here :-).
