Сходил для интереса на конфу для Java-разработчиков, хотя не пишу на Java уже давно (а на хорошем уровне не писал никогда).
Было много всего интересного, но особенно меня впечатлила лекция об истории развития этого языка. Java, на секундочку, вероятно самый распространённый язык программирования в мире с точки зрения количества разных устройств, на которых он присутствует. То есть буквально один из столпов современной цифровизации всего человечества.
Так вот, когда он только зарождался, компания Sun Microsystems наняла себе в помощь несколько сотен разработчиков из России, бОльшая часть которых сидела у нас в Питере — это были выходцы из матмеха СПбГУ. Более того — в какой-то момент именно питерская ячейка стала крупнейшей по числу инженеров, превзойдя даже ту, которая располагалась в Калифорнии. И люди периодически ездили в США, чтобы синхронизировать свою работу с тамошним офисом (пересылали diff репозитория архивами по почте!).
Потом Sun купила Oracle и постепенно ушла из России. Но вклад наши внесли, оказывается, очень существенный.

Перерисовал на эту тему картинку из XKCD
Terrorism: From now on, an African who supports Ukraine 🇺🇦, who itself supports terrorist groups in Africa and Mali 🇲🇱, is considered an enemy for the liberation of Africa. From now on, Ukraine is officially the enemy of Africa, and the pan-African community. We will effectively treat his case as we do with their ally France on African lands. Case to follow!
Any act of mercy towards Ukraine 🇺🇦 on African lands is equivalent to cruelty towards the African. #Understand Who Can Take Ukraine down! At the bottom of the USA 🇺🇸! Low down with the African Union! Slow the complicit African states!
The Revolution is on the Move ✊🏾

If you knew me,
This is what would you'd really find;
I'm scared,
I'm filled with so much hate.
You tell me to pick myself up,
but it's too late!
Dark is the only light in sight,
Slowly killing me,
Destroying me piece by piece.
I've lost myself completely,
Insecurities echo in my dreams,
Yearning to be set free.
It's fingers reach out,
Dragging me deeper,
Dragging me straight back to hell.
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry I'm a bad person.
I hate myself too,
I've never been good enough,
Not to myself and probably not to anyone.
I think I've had enough...
I wish you'd understand.
You don't understand.
You'll never understand.

Here are 5 key takeaways from the book
"STRATEGIZE TO WIN"

1. #Know your strengths and weaknesses. This is the foundation of any successful strategy. Once you know what you're good at and what you're not so good at, you can start to build a strategy that plays to your strengths and minimizes your weaknesses.
2. #Set clear goals. What do you want to achieve? What are your long-term and short-term goals? Once you know what you want to achieve, you can start to develop a strategy to get there.
3. #Understand your competition. Who are your competitors? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What are their goals? Once you understand your competition, you can start to develop a strategy that will give you an edge.
4. #Be flexible. The world is constantly changing, so your strategy needs to be flexible enough to adapt to change. Be prepared to adjust your strategy as needed.
5. #Execute your strategy. This is the most important step of all. Once you have a strategy, you need to execute it. This means taking action and making sure that your strategy is working.
Here are some additional key takeaways from the book:
A. #Strategy is not a one-time event. It is an ongoing process that needs to be reviewed and updated regularly.
B. #Strategy is not about perfection. It is about progress. You will never have a perfect strategy, but you can always improve your strategy by learning from your mistakes and by making adjustments as needed.
C. #Strategy is about execution. It is not enough to have a good strategy. You also need to be able to execute your strategy effectively.
I hope these key takeaways help you on your journey to strategizing to win.
