A close former(hurts) friend told me today. it should seem like common sense, but for some reason, for me, wasn’t. It’s been a very heavy couple of weeks. There are triggers wherever I go, even in my own house. But why do I feel this way? There’s a lot of hurt lingering inside me, but why I am hurt? I had the option to not go through this. Why did I?

Engineers wait for the go ahead to build some product that management has identified to solve a market gap. Now, in most big enough teams, what happens is that management or product identify market gaps, and there’s a lot of idea... </summary> </entry> <entry><title>You’re Doomed To Fail As A Team Lead</title><link href="https://kwakubiney.com/posts/You-re-Doomed-To-Fail-As-A-Team-Lead/" rel="alternate" type="text/html" title="You’re Doomed To Fail As A Team Lead" /><published>2025-09-16T21:12:00+00:00</published> <updated>2025-09-16T21:12:00+00:00</updated> <id>https://kwakubiney.com/posts/You-re-Doomed-To-Fail-As-A-Team-Lead/</id> <content src="https://kwakubiney.com/posts/You-re-Doomed-To-Fail-As-A-Team-Lead/" /> <author> <name>Kwaku Biney</name> </author> <summary> I don’t know how I feel about technical leadership. Sitting at this position makes me realise that most processes run on experiments and are as trial and error as it gets. Being a team lead is one of the most confusing positions ever. Especially when everyone else feels like you’re at the next level where you can delegate when you feel like you’re learning new things everyday technically.

Writing about my year is hard, mind is blank, and I have already written about the significant parts of my life already. One thing that stands out for me this year is friendship, the beauty of friendship. Over a significant part of my life, I have known people, we have bonded to an extent, but it all fades with time.

Got laid off at work the week I drafted my plan to get promoted. The universe has quite the sense of humour, I must say. It hurt for the first 2 days, then it just did not hurt anymore. Life goes on.
