Welcome back to my series on “The Effective Engineer” by Edmond Lau. In my first post, we introduced the key themes of the book and discussed why becoming an effective engineer matters. Today, we’ll dive deep into the first and perhaps most crucial theme: Prioritization.

Welcome to my series on “The Effective Engineer” by Edmond Lau. If you’re a software engineer aiming to make a meaningful impact in your career, I believe this book is a must-read. Over the next few weeks, I’ll delve deep into the core principles discussed in the book and explore how you can apply them to become more effective and efficient in your work.

Introduction

The term “Senior Engineer” is often used in the tech industry, but what does it really mean? What separates a Senior Engineer from a Junior or Mid-Level Engineer? In this post, we’ll explore the key characteristics that define a Senior Engineer.

Sorting Algorithms

Bubble Sort

Bubble sort is one of the simplest sorting algorithms. It works by repeatedly stepping through the list, comparing each pair of adjacent items and swapping them if they are in the wrong order. This process continues until the list is sorted.

Merge Sort in Ruby

Merge sort is one of the fundamental sorting algorithms used in computer science. It belongs to the divide and conquer category of algorithms, where a problem is divided into smaller sub-problems that are solved recursively. In this blog post, we’ll explore merge sort in-depth, focusing on its implementation in Ruby.

In today’s fast-paced and competitive world, organizations are increasingly realizing the importance of teamwork and collaboration. While assembling a team with diverse skills and expertise is crucial, it is equally important to create an environment where every team member feels heard and valued. In this blog post, we will explore the significance of having a team where everyone’s ideas and suggestions are encouraged, as well as the potential drawbacks of allowing constant in-fighting and political games to bog down the team dynamics.
