I genuinely look forward to tech-specific leadership opinions, but the author lost me with the ham-handed attempt at humor in the opening paragraph. "Don’t worry, leading engineers is just like writing code. Just like apples and oranges..." and: "You can’t write tests. An occasional survey is ok." Seriously? If I can't show my new engineers how I expect tests to be written - who will? IMO being a technical lead is all about leading from the front, and by example - and that means everything from documentation to unit tests to architecture. |

This is how I interpreted it: We can't write test cases against a flesh and blood human being which tie into
"Then there is the latency. It takes weeks to discover if what you tried actually worked"
