Apart from those best seller books, the are great podcasts and articles that people discuss their experiences in depth. It helps me a lot, to compose a more holistic thinking.

Technical debt does not increase only for technological reasons but also from business expectations. You can't just "build" a new garden and leave it be. You have to maintain it also. Keeping the system clean and well oiled before building more is important. But these concepts need to be reminded everyday to survive




Can you list some recommendations? For podcasts and some articles/authors to follow.


Here are some of my current material:

- I have a great time listening to "Software Unscripted" podcast.

- On youtube the channel "code opinion". Although I don't like or use DDD and C#, I think that it has high quality and rewarding content.

- I am currently finishing "A Philosophy of Software Design" by John Ousterhout.

- Regarding articles, I read stuff related to my day's obsession or problem. I can't point you out to one. I mean, what do you need to evaluate/learn?

If you need something more specific topic-wise I am glad to share with you


Thanks this is helpful. I have the Philosophy of Software design on my to-read list.

Really enjoying the Code Opinion videos so far.
