Positively inclined

If you work on software then you would agree that there are bugs everywhere, more code you peruse more bugs you see. Impelled by our negativity bias, this can make us propagate the negative sentiment to others via social media or other means. Human-beings tend to attract towards strong emotions negative o positive, perhaps due to our social makings. So such postings can get quite a bit of traction.

We also know that software is running many systems from small sensors to planes. So something must be working. In fact, more is working than what is broken. So choose to be positively inclined. This can make us more collaborative, see these bugs as opportunities to make things better, moreover it can keep us adaptable in fast changing world of software engineering.

So share your problem-solving stories e.g. You saw this bug and how you fixed it more, this may also inspire someone else who is surrounded by broken software as well.
