Michael Lopp isn't a Goodreads Author (yet), but they do have a blog, so here are some recent posts imported from their feed.

What’s in the Nerd Bag?

On the Pro Leisure Circuit, I’m spending a lot of time in random coffee shops. Cafe Dio in Los Gatos. Long-standing desk. View of the redwoods in front of my high school. Can recommend.

It’s been a while since I’ve documented what’s in my bag, but there have been several recent notable updates worth discussing, as well as a seismic bag shift, which is where we’ll start.

TUMI: Harrison Warren Backpac

Quotes by Michael Lopp  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“My definition of a great manager is someone with whom you can make a connection no matter where you sit in the organization chart.”
Michael Lopp, Managing Humans: Biting and Humorous Tales of a Software Engineering Manager

“The moment I walk into a bookstore, I remember what I love about them. They are an oasis of intellectual calm. Perhaps it’s the potential of all the ideas hidden behind those delicious covers. Or perhaps it’s the social reverence for the library-like quiet. You don’t yell in a bookstore; you’ll piss off the books.”
Michael Lopp, Being Geek: The Software Developer's Career Handbook

“The rule is simple: if you don’t write it down, it never happened.”
Michael Lopp
