In case you haven't heard it yet, tune in to @STS_News interview me for Peoples & Things on the @NewBooksNetwork about MiddleTech. Strange timing to talk about "good enoughness" in software work during a global IT shutdown. newbooksnetwork.com/middle-t…

Can we be okay with just being good enough? @marigra21sl @Forbes spoke with #HSGProf @PBialski @hsg_shss about “good-enoughness”, how it’s different from quiet quitting and how perfectionists can implement it in their lives: unisg.link/2lr

Now available, @PBialski's Middle Tech shows why software isn’t perfect, as seen through the stories of #software developers at a run-of-the-mill tech company.

The #software industry is often associated with stories of #disruption. However, this overlooks the fact that much of the work done in this sector simply keeps the digital infrastructure running. @PBialski has written a book about this world of work.
