Behavioral Software Engineering by Mario Fusco
In this talk, Fusco shows that we’re not the cool, rational “Econ” robots we’d like to be—our brains lean on all sorts of sneaky shortcuts. Anchoring and availability biases warp how we benchmark performance, while pro-innovation, bandwagon and not-invented-here mindsets push us toward hypes or homemade tools.
He walks us through decades of behavioral-economics research—framing effects, heuristics and all—and drills into how these mental shortcuts sneak into our coding choices, architecture debates and tool selections, ultimately shaping the quality of our software.
