Clean Code: The Manager’s Guide to Building Quality Software

I recently ran into this hot take from Uncle Bob Martin (surprise!) on the need for ethics in the software industry. He makes some very interesting points in this interview that I think is worth considering.

Spoiler alert: I really don’t have a lot to add to what you heard, but it made me think. I’d like to know your thoughts about the issues he brings up.

1. The growth of tech is a global issue

Tech is everywhere. Code is everywhere, and more developers are needed everywhere.

The number of software engineers doubles every five years based on data from Stack Overflow. This means there aren’t as many experienced engineers around as we’d like, while true veterans are next to impossible to hire.

Based on my own experience this seems to correlate to reality. Most of the new hires in our company are junior engineers as well, as they’re far easier to find on the workforce market.
