July 4, 2018 How and why managers should code

Wrote a blog post about how managers should stay on the tools. Dev managers staying technical - as opposed to the hard split of the technical/managerial track is a key philosophical point behind why I'm trying to build this business. There's a lot of friction stopping the managers who want to stay engaged with the work and I want to remove as much of it as possible.

About

As a former CTO/Engineering Manager I saw Github Flow with CI/CD working really well for the engineers and really poorly for everyone else. Hecate's the collection of bots & apps I'm writing to plug those gaps.
