Clean code and reality.

 

The
article examines the question, “is clean code by Robert Martin still matters?” From
author’s 16-year coding experience, he writes about reality in writing clean
code and its criticism. He acknowledges that t in the end meeting the deadline
with functional and bug free code is more important then elegant code following
the principle of clean code. However, he argues in the end as a developer,
trying to integrate small aspects of clean code into your code base is going to
make your skill improve as an engineer in the long run even if many people will
not care about it.

I selected this
article as it addresses some uncertainty that I had with clean code. All the
code I have written feels like I got pressure to deliver functional code as
quickly as possible and now I’m supposed to write elegant, maintainable code so
I wanted to see the real live example from experience if clean code was that necessary.
The author’s real-world experience and practical approach toward the subject made
it an interesting topic to delve into deeper.

This article showed
that clean code is not something you have to write all the thing following to
it, it is about finding the right balance between quality code following the
clean code and functional code. I feel like clean code still matters in a bit
as we want to write a code in time but needs to make it modular to be abled to be
easily refactored for later uses. Not only that, this article advice to start
small feels realistic and something I can do to grow as a programmer.  The hierarchy of what matters in the software
part will be my checklist in the future as it is the basic outline of how the
code needs to be structured. When writing code, the working code always comes first,
then make it without bug and if there is bug, you should be able to be fixed
easily then I will try to add instance of small parts of clean code in. I want
to make the code a bit modular because I spent hours trying to refactor code sometimes
and finding which part of the code went wrong took a long time because my code
was always a mess. Therefore, I feel like idea of clean code by Robert martin
is not dead but only small part of it is still alive to become better
programmer. As the most important thing for programming is to make software
that is easy to maintain, adapt and scale.

Is Agile going to fail?

 

This article by
Jeff Gothelf asks the question “Is Agile finally over?” after 20+ years of
implementation to tech field. He argues that even though Agile’s widespread
adaptation hasn’t got the result that Agile was intended for. Many companies
claimed to be “Agile” as they copy each other, but the implementation of it was
shallow or almost non-existent to make changes according to it. Therefore, he
says that agile does not seems working as companies try to make employee follow
set of rules instead of working in following the basic principles of Agile. He
concluded that organizations need to focus on true organizational agility
rather than rigid framework adoption.

This article
caught my attention while searching through the internet as it criticizes Agile’s
current status in the business world as ideal of agile does not really fit in
reality in organization experience. The vague promises and core ideas are often
overlooked to the ‘wants’ of either customer or the organization. The output is
never about efficient program but a program that works made in short amount
time. In the end, it feels like the organization’s internal culture and goals
must align with the methods it adopts to fully be efficient which does not seem
to work for a lot of groups that ‘follows’ agile. Learning that to me, teamwork
following agile principle is hard from top-down management as they try to
follow rules made by the organization to follow the given framework, that is
why agile is not working for many in my opinion.

This got me to
reflect that to practice agile in the future, that I need to try to make sure
that if the company says they do ‘agile’ format for development, I need to check
with others so that if they want ‘agile’ following company standard or the real
agile that I learned in class. I feel like this way even more because when I work
at a part time job, company wanted to follow xyz because and it was annoying
and required lot of process which contradicted for the speed of work they
wanted us to work on. Therefore, no one really followed by the book or the procedures
were implemented shallow, so it was not effective at all, I think this was the same
case for agile in the long run. It feels like agile manifesto was built for
small teams or companies where they could discuss things multiple times in
small groups not to be used by large companies as it will be always shallow or
just another term to company’s rules to schedule how work is done. Therefore, I
feel like widespread use of agile is dying down unlike what the author says
because no one tries to keep that rule in big companies.
