Title: I&#x27;m a software developer, just like many of you.<p>My software has issues, lots of them. Customers are calling, there&#x27;s this and that to do. The to-do list is seemingly never ending.<p>And then there&#x27;s every day where I&#x27;m overwhelmed again:<p>Snapchat launches a fantastic re-design. Facebook changes its newsfeed algorithm with significant implications for marketing agencies and small businesses. Facebook replaces its complete Android SDK with a new API. You have to adapt. You have the SDK in your app? Change the references. Apple releases a completely new programming language. Apple releases new versions of iOS and OS X. Google brings Android to TV and your wrist. They release a brand-new Android version. A new cross-platform design language. They replace the Android VM. Notifications change how they work. This. And that. And this. And that.<p>Issues and customer feedback pile up in your mailbox. You don&#x27;t know how to manage the today and the past and yet the future is waiting with millions of new opportunities, needs, demands and risks.<p>I&#x27;m out.
