There's other types of comp. then money, obviously, and those are fine too. In particular, we discuss participation in open source and more recognition. But, still: money is the best.
We discuss this problem and things to do in this episode.
Also, we find out why Coté always has bad breath.
Mood board:
Join Rick and I as we try to find this elusive thing called "The Business." We lay out a theory we've been talking about: while IT has been improving or, at least, can improve, the business side of the house isn't showing up to do anything with CLOUD and AGILE and THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION.
Why's this the case? Do toothpaste people have this problem? Outsourcing - that's a treat! And so forth.
Hopefully next episode we'll discuss tactics to get people outside of IT interested.

Version control has changed a lot over the past 15 years: we’ve moved from a centralized to a distributed model at the basic level. But the practices people follow have changed and grown as new methodologies like DevOps and continuous delivery have relied on version control for operational stability and reliability.

We also discuss Plastic SCM and how their approach to semantic merging and mergebot-driven automation addresses version control toil.
