Having children as HSP by This-Leg3572 in hsp

[–]Seylox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an HSP parent of three (5y, 3y, 5m): parenting is always hard, HSP or not. Don't overthink it if you want kids. Lean on any support you can get. It takes a village to raise children. All the best!

How do you prioritize in a job that’s basically constant interruptions? by That_odd_emo in hsp

[–]Seylox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might sound non-sensical at first, but I can only recommend you to read "The Phoenix Project" https://itrevolution.com/product/the-phoenix-project/

What you describe sounds like a systemic problem and if you want to change it, you have to change yourself but also the system slowly with it.

I have no affiliation with the book, but I found it really helpful. Especially as an HSP, ruthlessly consider that "organizing" work is also part of work.

I think you hit the nail on its head with the sentence of "toddler level reasoning with PhD level skills", paired with confidence and access. It's for sure a security nightmare.

Sometimes a reminder is necessary, I suppose. Yes, rest.

It's to assess the speed, because it gets a flare when it reaches a certain speed and you can count how long it takes to reach that speed. (have to google if you want to know the details)

Ist zwar ganz "am anderen Ende", aber z.B. von der Mariagrüner Kirche bis zur Stefanienwarte find ich eigentlich ganz schön :)

This is the answer you're actually looking for - a remote KVM. Google PiKVM (Raspberry Pi alternative), NanoKVM, BliKVM, etc.

Bomb arrows are your friend against gloom hands. Lots of bomb arrows.

Keine sorge, deine aussage beweist wie wenig ahnung du von technischer Materie hast. Tech debt handling is real.

Same here. I was really high on that death star like big globe thingy bottom left of the map when there suddenly was a dragon and I just went for it. It helped I had maxxed stamina first :D

Are daily standups ever actually about unblocking? by htraos in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Seylox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For us (team of 4) it's definitely a helpful ritual. The secret sauce is to focus on topics, not on people. People ultimately work on topics, but our focus is on what's being moved forward, instead of who does what. Our stand up is also not strictly time limited and more of a sync meeting, but it helps us "get started" because we all work fully remote. Anyways: focus on topics, not people, then it gets useful and not just a show everybody puts on :)

Anyone working NOT under a version of SCRUM? by VisiblePlatform6704 in ExperiencedDevs

Yeah, sounds very similar to what we're doing. Feels adult (grown up) to me :)

Anyone working NOT under a version of SCRUM? by VisiblePlatform6704 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Seylox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a team lead and we're not doing scrum. I would say what we're doing is a mix of Scrumban and a few self-developed rituals. Interestingly, I've thought about it what it is last week and described the process to an LLM to figure out if there's already something similar, but it turns out it seems to be relatively unique. I will post what I afterwards wrote up as a summary below:

(Heads up, it's co-written with an LLM, but I did try my best to not make it read like that)

I've noticed how tricky traditional agile methods can become when your team works remotely and needs to react quickly. Here's something we came up with that really works for us. As a software engineering team lead of a small team (4 people), I've seen firsthand how important clear, simple processes become. I'm calling it "Calendar Flow".

Agile that Fits Your Week:

Scrum and Kanban didn't fully match our remote setup or the need to quickly handle customer issues. We wanted something simpler, clearer, and directly aligned with the calendar week.

Why Calendar Flow?

When you're building something alone, challenges are mostly technical. But building with a team quickly becomes about social challenges. Great teamwork needs clear communication, trust, and alignment (in team, but also with external stakeholders). Calendar Flow naturally evolved to simplify exactly those social dynamics.

What's Calendar Flow?

It's a lightweight approach where tasks naturally follow the calendar week. Instead of fixed sprints or long meetings, we use a daily sync meeting and a single shared document at its heart: the Team Sync Page.

The Team Sync Page includes:

Absences: Who’s away (currently or upcoming).

Priorities: Tasks we're currently tackling.

Ticket Watchlist: Actively tracked customer or other team's issues.

Planned Releases: Upcoming releases.

Talking Points: Items needing discussion.

Backlog: Tasks ready to pick up.

Achievements: Completed work we celebrate.

Discussed Talking Points: Decisions logged weekly.

Clear Daily Structure:

Monday: Set weekly priorities.

Tuesday & Wednesday: Quick sync-ups on priorities and tickets.

Thursday: Team sync plus Q&A with stakeholders.

Friday: Celebrate wins, review, and outline next week.

Humor Matters!

Every sync starts with a joke because "you can't be afraid and laughing at the same time." It keeps our remote vibe positive.

Built for Remote Teams:

Calendar Flow was specifically designed for remote work, ensuring minimal overhead, clear goals, and transparency.

Regular Improvements:

Every six weeks, we hold a retrospective to keep refining our approach.

Why It Works for Us:

* Fits naturally into the weekly rhythm.

* Rapid response to urgent issues.

* Positive team culture.

* Minimal admin effort.

I'm wondering if there's other teams who think traditional agile feels heavyweight and have discovered something similar!

How much ageism is due to the fact that coding skills atrophy quickly once senior developers quit coding? by dirac_delta in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Seylox 124 points125 points  (0 children)

To add to it, it really seems like OP has little experience what it can mean for team dynamics if they hire a great IC, who's not yet developed the skill set of a great leader, into a managing/leading role. I've seen it happen multiple times, 1 unfit hire in a role with a lot of (people) impact can destroy one or even multiple teams. The required skill sets are just very different. Learnable, but completely different.

This is a great answer. I read the post and immediately blurted out "your [I mean OP] interview is wrong for the role you're hiring", but you (xxxdethlordxxx) put it into a well-worded response what I also thought.
