men — and it is almost always men — don't do this. 1. i didn't ask for recommendations 2. those are NOT management theory books 3. i already own the book, trying to sell it to me like i've never heard of it is insulting 4. on no planet do i need a man to tell me what to read next

Feels like a perfect time to suggest @grimalkina.bsky.social's book Psychology of Software Teams: www.drcathicks.com Paired with @charity.wtf , @lizthegrey.com , and George Miranda's Observability Engineering (www.oreilly.com/library/view...) . Both big Next Reads, specifically b/c management.

"i was trying to be helpful—" no, you weren't. helpful people ask questions and wait for permission, they don't charge in with zero knowledge whether you want it or not
