JOTB19 - Collective Problem Solving in Music, Science, Software by Jessica Kerr
There's a story to tell, about musicians, artists, philosophers, scientists, and then programmers. There's a truth inside it that leads to a new view of work, that sees beauty in the painful complexity that is software development. Starting from _The Journal of the History of Ideas_, Jessica traces the concept of an "invisible college" through music and art and science to programming. She finds the dark truth behind the 10x developer, a real definition of "Senior Developer," and a new name for our work and our teams.
