What does farming have to do with software engineering?
A lot more than you would think.
In a world where developers are constantly pushed to move...

Love this analogy, especially the part about respecting the seasons - I've learned the hard way that rest and cleanup cycles are just as important as building new stuff. What do you think is the trickiest "weed" to keep out of your codebase?
Thank you! I totally agree, rest and cleanup are so underrated, but make a huge difference.
For me, the trickiest weed is probably old, unused code that just sits around. It is easy to ignore because it does not always break anything, but over time, it makes everything harder to understand and maintain. Regularly reviewing and cleaning up really helps keep things healthy!
What about you? Any weeds you find especially sneaky?
Loved the concept, never thought like that
Thank you! 🙌
growth like this is always nice to see kinda makes me wonder you think habits or just sticking around matters more over time
I think both matters good habits help to grow, but staying consistent over time really makes the difference. Just like farming, steady effort leads to the best results.
BTW, very interesting take :)
Really a nice read mate.
Thank you ☺️
Insightful
Thank you :)
Amazing co-relation! Loved it!
Thank you! 🙌
What a brilliant way to see software development like being a farmer. I really enjoyed how you first drew a comparison to farming and then reinforced it by connecting each farming technique with software devs.
This line especially I like a lot Poor foundations ruin great ideas.
