Here are your picks for this week:
Development lessons learnt
A very good, long list of lessons learnt from 30 years in software development. Which ones resonate with your own experience? What would you add to the list?

Process makes perfect
Data-driven decision making isn’t as easy as it seems. This good overview explains how to avoid common pitfalls - in short, always decide on the ‘default action’ and decision criteria before looking at the data.
It’s all about People
Onboarding should be a hot topic for any growing startup out there, but it often isn’t. So it’s nice to see so much good advice compiled in a single article. One key point I would add: pair every new colleague with a buddy who they can work closely with, for the initial few days and weeks.
I hope you liked this. Have a great week!
