The Effective Developer - Work Smarter, Not Harder
summary
Argues developers must trade raw output for actual impact by adopting concrete practices: use canary tests with junior devs to prove code simplicity, enforce team coding conventions and code review rules that criticize ideas not people, schedule 24-hour hackathon quarterly and run one innovation week every eight weeks so small experiments either fail fast or become product features, run a book club and video Fridays to learn, train IDE shortcuts and try GitHub Actions, map customer journeys and optimize the happy path.
