  • I quit my company a week ago because as a company of 13 people the communication at all levels was so poor compared to my previous job working with over 20 and several departments. I’m not usually one to judge people’s degrees, but our boss has a biosciences and GIS degree and somehow wandered their way into software management and has the biggest superiority complex I’ve ever seen. These people plague the software development landscape so, my condolences for your CEO who is probably too busy looking at golf clubs and scheduling tee times while writing up an email about how hard executive management works to get back to you.













  • Our solutions architect is like this. Not because we’re working on anything important at the moment, but because we keep pushing back important upgrades further and further, making each day a more challenging operation to keep our rickety-ass distributed monolith alive.

    We were supposed to upgrade from Java 8 on Springboot 2.1 to 17 on Springboot 3. That got wiped off the table because the bosses think shoving our inefficient solution into a cloud product is what will attract customers.






  • Haven’t used an IMS basket, I only use VST so I can attest to those. I don’t have any shot-to-shot consistency issues and overall my brewing experience with them has been phenomenal. Your tamp pressure is likely not changing anything, unless you are not fully tamping to begin with; either you get all the air pockets out or you don’t—additional pounds of pressure do not really change much after this. Is your grinder step-less? Ensure you are able to grind at very fine intervals, otherwise this could be your issue with the IMS basket pulling faster while your grinder cannot perform consistently.
