we are running the annual survey again. Last year we had almost 2k responses, and it would be great to top that!
The survey covers all roles and levels: ICs, managers, directors and freelancers. This year we also added a couple of questions on benefits, remote work policies, AI adoption, and salary negotiation.
it takes about 4 minutes, and the full report will be published a couple of weeks after the survey closes.
the bittersweetness of going back to work. rough, but getting paychecks again is nice. :-D
i just re-pivoted back to product mgmt/owner - not exclusively, but def has the focus of my search again - too early to tell if there is any difference, and not sure i'll be able to tell even when i close something - might just be a numbers game, luck, etc.
i just finished a call for a solutions architect as part of a prof services team - which would be fine - it's pretty light in terms of the tech focus, maybe middle, as far as architect roles go. i can still code and stuff, but def don't prefer to do it more than 15 min/day.
It does not mean you never can start something again! I am definitely gonna keep trying ... my thinking was only: I need to get more into a startup scene and Berlin should be a great choice for this.
I admire this effort and wish you a lot of success with it.
I see three main problems:
1) tech people probably do not cook much and more order/eat out, so it is hard for me to imagine chefs/grandmas/not-tech-savvy people using it;
2) main problem for people cooking/experimenting is to decide what exactly to cook - and here you would usually go for something proven (e.g a cook-book or a website)
3) there is a reason not everyone can be a good recipe developer, because it takes a lot of experience and knowledge and you cannot really copy/paste and publish from existing pages/books. I am not sure if I would try a random "forked" recipe.
Good luck, I am interested in what comes out of it!
I don't believe number one to be true at all (anecdotally). Every place I have worked, there's been cook-offs and engineering takes that challenge seriously.

Thank you so much!
