#LIES OF P DEVELOPERS SOFTWARE#
Young developers see the power of software like CRM or any SaaS solution and think they’ll solve all your problems. Asking software to solve an enterprise problem is like asking a submarine to swim, to quote Dijkstra. This process is part of the digital transformation - but the software is just a tool. We try to solve any aspect of our life using an app or software. We live in a world where anything can be done by software. The small lies developers tell come from the difficulty of doing this job. Development is one of the most complex jobs in the world, especially when you’re a junior or in a less structured team.

In this article, I would face the small lies that every developer tells involuntary to others (but first of all to himself). That wasn’t due to any superpower - it was just that I made more errors than them. It’s interesting how I proved myself able to prevent mistakes and drive the people to the right solution, thus avoiding pitfalls. These promotions changed my point of view and I soon started seeing myself when I watched the people who work in my teams. I Have taken on the role of team leader and, later, CTO. In my career as a developer, I’ve fought a lot of bugs and tricky situations. Development, for those who take to this profession with passion, can be an addiction. It’s a bit like how people continue to think about cigarettes even when they quit smoking years ago. I confess: I was and still am a developer.īeing a developer is more than a job, it’s a state of mind.
