Why does Scrum fail?

There are several answers to this question. It may be that Scrum just doesn't fit the product or the industry. Agile methodologies are perfect for delivering complex products in changing business conditions, with many development teams involved. However, if you try to implement them into larger teams, or ones that work in stable, predictable business environments, Agile methodologies won't serve their role.

Do I need blockchain for my project?

During the last five years, blockchain has evolved from the weird, niche technology for cryptocurrencies to a widespread trend that everyone wants to follow. It’s become truly mainstream and widely considered to be an essential part of the tech world for years to come.

Product owner - the essential role in startup software projects

In order to develop software, you need developers. That’s for sure. But, no matter how skilled and experienced they are, they need guidance from someone who perfectly understands the idea of a product they’re developing. Especially in trailblazing projects that involve new approaches and solutions that weren’t available on the market in any way before.

Three reasons why technology should never be the main focus in software development

Let’s say you’ve discovered a massive gold vein right under your house. With the right approach, you’re going to be set for life. But first, you need to figure out sales, distribution, legal issues, and of course, how you are going to mine it. Is a pickaxe enough for the job, or perhaps you need something more complex? The last one sounds like a trivial matter compared to the rest, right? It’s not that different in software development. Technology is just a tool to execute your plan. What makes a business successful in the first place is everything around technology. It’s a logical conclusion of what is your goal business-wise.

Should a software house care about your business security?

When software houses talk about security, it most often refers to the secure information flow and data. It makes perfect sense as those aspects play a significant role in software development, especially for companies that deal with innovative technologies like blockchain or bioinformatics.

Getting started Ethereum smart contracts

Have you ever wondered how to implement applications for Ethereum? How do people create new cryptocurrencies based on the Ethereum blockchain? Or all those fancy NFTs?

How important is scientific background for bioinformatics development?

Why are we trying to understand genome sequencing? How does machine learning help scientists analyze molecular mechanisms and functions? What is retrosynthesis? I would never think that knowing answers to those questions would help me be a good developer. But here I am, writing meaningful bioinformatics software with other science graduates and combining the two fields I’ve studied in my academic and professional life.

Why is rushing never a good idea in software development?

Being the first line of contact in a software house is a fascinating, yet challenging task. Every day I listen to passionate people who have brilliant ideas. And very often, I ask them to take a step back, take it slower, and even make them question their own way of thinking. Of course, there’s generally nothing wrong with acting quickly, as long as we’re not being neglectful. But there’s an old Polish saying: “haste is a bad advisor”. And just like there’s a reason for speed limits in every country, there’s a very good reason for research and preparation before software projects start.
