Takeoff: What Software Development Can Learn from Aviation
A lot of professions have been around way longer than software development and have developed "best practices" to handle typical problems and challenges. Software developers can benefit from taking a closer look at aircraft maintenance or a pilot’s processes to learn from them, optimize our processes. and last but not least, try to reduce some of the stress that we experience over and over again.

The Fundamentals of Testing with Persistence Layers
Mocking out dependencies such as databases and other persistence layers leads to ineffective tests. Unfortunately, our industry is also focused on function-level testing to the exclusion of all else, so few are trained on how to write any other type of test. This article seeks to correct the issue by reintroducing the concept of testing with databases.

Is Artificial Intelligence Taking over DevOps?
AI tools are slowly replacing the role of the developer – just as DevOps did before – and will eventually supplant DevOps entirely. Assessing whether that prediction is true is tricky. In this article, we’ll look at what AI promises for the development process, assess whether it can really ever take over from human developers, and what DevOps is likely to look like in a decades’ time.
