In this episode, we talk about why software projects in regular jobs are delivered much slower compared to side projects, and what you can do about it.
We share our journey from building hobby projects as teenagers to working in professional environments, and the differences we encountered.
Developers are often kept isolated from product decisions and treated as “coding monkeys in golden cages” - just receiving tasks without understanding the why behind them.
We discuss techniques like Event Storming that can help break down these barriers, and improve collaboration between developers and product managers.
