If Architectures Could Talk, They’d Quote Your Boss
Software architecture reflects how organizations communicate and make decisions. Failures stem from misaligned incentives, unclear ownership, and structural gaps—not technical flaws. Architects must design not just systems, but the conditions for systems to thrive, using platform thinking to reduce friction and foster autonomy.

Is Your Test Suite Brittle? Maybe It’s Too DRY
One important design principle in software development is DRY – Don’t Repeat Yourself. However, when DRY is applied to test code, it can cause the test suite to become brittle — difficult to understand, maintain, and change. In this article, I will present some indications that a test suite is brittle, guidelines to follow when reducing duplication in tests, and better ways to DRY up tests.
